I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding skills so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!<br /><i>Feel free to surf my site</i> ; <b><a href="http://www.examiner.com/article/the-many-email-options-local-community-college-students-have" rel="nofollow">abc news alien abductions</a></b>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-84236389523000704262013-01-18T13:36:12.398-08:002013-01-18T13:36:12.398-08:00This update is all kinds of wonderful, and I'm...This update is all kinds of wonderful, and I'm glad I came back to read when I finally had the time to devote to it. <br />I love Merrick. He reminds me of several males in my own house, but all bundled up into a single package of BOY. (The not-reading would drive me nuts, I confess!)<br />Hooray for Scarlett's successful venture with her voice (er... not talking, then being able to talk and sing once again) -- such GREAT news!<br />I, too, am thoroughly enjoying my 11th grade son. I'm really going to miss him when he leaves for college. <br />And for reaching a landmark age and coming to terms with what is important in life? PRICELESS. <br />Ditto for a great marriage.

I saw that line when my oldest was just 8 or 9, but I immediately understood that this would be true - and that there's an unfortunate myth around the horrors of that age. LOVE those older kids!!! And yes, Jenn, Merrick is that reminder. Just the sight of his elbow sticking out from a blanket when he's sound asleep gives me pure joy!!Minnesota Matronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16565431067927240183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-25808736021676654602012-12-27T16:22:05.890-08:002012-12-27T16:22:05.890-08:00I agree with Jenn.

Though those holidays partaken with the joyfulness of a 4 year old are missed, the end result is that the grown children are a lot of fun to be around 95% of the time. And when they are not, I can leave and not worry about anyone's safety.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08556301919720689325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381811875173852585.post-88068291961804606712012-12-27T10:04:42.292-08:002012-12-27T10:04:42.292-08:00It only gets better with your kids.

A holiday filled with grownups that pitch in and laugh together is so. much. fun. <br /><br />I think that with all the high-achievers in your family, the universe sent you Merrick to keep you all tethered to the concept of simple joys--because he is the poster child for those!Jenn @ Juggling Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14455967210924573398noreply@blogger.com
