I’ve Left…

December 17, 2010 by Elaine

… but only for a post.

I’ve guest-posted at The Mother Load today. Erin was gracious enough to let be her guest today and I’m so very honored. She’s a wonderful writer and a native Louisianian and I can’t wait to hopefully meet her at the end of the month when she makes a visit! WOOT! So click on over there and read my post and check out her blog too!

xo,

elaine

    I want my kids to be close so bad and to have all kinds of fun memories like that. I’m off for the next two weeks and my BFF is wondering why I don’t take the kids to daycare and do some (much needed) things around the house and all I can think is that the memories I can make with them (especially the bigger one) over the next couple of weeks is worth so much more than completed chores.

    I don’t know why, but your post totally made me cry. I remember a few good things about my childhood that I still love to reminisce on. I’ve been having a rough year, so maybe my emotions being overloaded is why I cried. I’m a new follower! Pleased to meet you.
