And yes, we parent very similarly. I bought Kate some games and movies at Target this week (because she is too sick with mono for pre-school or play~dates or anything for a while) and I actually though of you because I don't buy the kids toys except for b-day's. either.

Wow, there were a lot of questions, you put a lot of time into this one.<BR/><BR/>One of the things I love about your blog is that you keep it real and you talk about anything from life with 3 kids to fashion or entertaining. You keep us coming back for more! <BR/><BR/>We all have different styles of how and what we blog, personally, I think that is what makes this so interesting!<BR/><BR/>And BTW, you look fab....you always do!<BR/><BR/>LisaHalf Gaelic, Half Garlic!https://www.blogger.com/profile/17227046808604837073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5940227370112378709.post-77662388057956491562009-03-26T00:17:00.000-04:002009-03-26T00:17:00.000-04:00I've been thinking a lot about this lately. Refect...I've been thinking a lot about this lately. Refection is inevitable when you are this hormonal--all those extra GIRL hormones, I'm sure. <BR/><BR/>Clearly, you aren't alone--as made evident by the comments. <BR/><BR/>How can we truly be who we really are ALL the time anyway? We project who we want to be, what parts of us we want people to see . . . <BR/><BR/>Blogging opens up such an odd dynamic between us and the reader. They THINK they know us, we THINK we know them. <BR/><BR/>But do we? Really? <BR/><BR/>No. We can't. We don't. Not completely, anyway. We only know what we read and what we choose to write. <BR/><BR/>The key is to make certain you are OK with the words that represent you, your life. That you FEEL them . . . and that no matter what anyone else says, you'll be OK.Laskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12001998549713092381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5940227370112378709.post-7999274748970220902009-03-25T23:45:00.000-04:002009-03-25T23:45:00.000-04:00You're just so darn cute I want to bottle you up! ...You're just so darn cute I want to bottle you up! :)<BR/><BR/>I find that I always come back here because you hold the same values as a "family journalist" as I do... no swearing on your blog, no bashing family members, just good old fun story telling that is often times raw and emotional, but always honest and heartfelt. <BR/><BR/>GOHMommy!Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16493268452074516009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5940227370112378709.post-52900522607856449292009-03-25T21:06:00.000-04:002009-03-25T21:06:00.000-04:00Look at you!

How would they feel? I want them to always know they are safe and can come to us about anything without it going all over the web. <BR/><BR/>I guess that is why I get concerned about the children on reality TV because they do not have secrets. Every aspect of their lives is on TV for all to see. No matter how much money or fame I could not exploit my children that way. Every person has to make that decision though.Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08313045165419617328noreply@blogger.com
