Love your posts...<br /><br />I could totally see a book in here, with all of your experiences. Also wondered if you could use your previous experience and cater towards families with newly diagnosed autistic kids who aren't in school yet. That way you could do that during the morning hours, maybe write the book in the afternoon!Sherrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13980063502482258767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8484148947744118811.post-42999365461552455002010-05-06T08:15:14.604-05:002010-05-06T08:15:14.604-05:00Happy 2 year blog-birthday!

What's going on with that crazy guy across the street? Do your kids know about your blog? Maybe they are too young to understand what a blog is...? Does your family/friends know about it? Do they read it? What do they think about it?<br /><br />I vote for the book idea too. Or maybe you could write children's books that focus on kids with behavior/mental health/disabilities.<br /><br />Thanks for keeping it real. It's so nice to know someone else isn't in love with being a stay at home mom (which doesn't mean you love your kids any less than the moms who say they love being home with their kids).It's the wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04648291436545600725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8484148947744118811.post-66356056055639377232010-05-06T00:47:16.055-05:002010-05-06T00:47:16.055-05:00I'm thinking. :-)I'm thinking. :-)Mom 4 Kidshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10906174408622921425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8484148947744118811.post-89625807979383976692010-05-04T22:20:51.130-05:002010-05-04T22:20:51.130-05:00Oh I forgot to mention I will answer questions in ...Oh I forgot to mention I will answer questions in a separate post in a few days.<br />Good effort people.

Popping out to say that I think your writing is hilarious & to ditto the others who suggested that you write a book. Maybe about how to survive the transition from working world, to staying home with kids & then back again!<br /><br />I'm not sure if you use your kids real names on the blog or not, but I love the name Genea! So pretty and unusual! <br /><br />My question is: When you adopted Genea, did you change her name? If so, did she help choose the new name? How did you transition her to a new name? <br /><br />Congrats on your 2nd blogiversary!<br /><br />-AshleyAshley and Henryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10845738712821084443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8484148947744118811.post-60420733690337496632010-05-04T17:03:29.020-05:002010-05-04T17:03:29.020-05:00Yay for 2 years!

(That's not my "question" question...I'm just thinking about this book idea...) I think you definitely could write a book: something along the lines of how you used humor and common sense and empathy to keep yourself sane while healing your traumatized child and excorcising the wango-tango.<br /><br />Question: How does parenting affect your relationship with your husband? Do you see eye-to-eye on dealing with the wango-tango? Does it put stress on your relationship? If so, how do you handle that? Oh, and does your husband read your blog?<br /><br />Hope that's not too personal. If so, then multiple choice: What's your dream vacation, or...tell us about that handbag obsession.<br /><br />Happy blog-iversary!Rachaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00992203896914180674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8484148947744118811.post-71058328844317242722010-05-04T10:31:13.166-05:002010-05-04T10:31:13.166-05:00Happy Blogaversary!!
