Thanks for the warm welcome! And Laura, no you are not alone. Somewhere around 10:30 PM I get really cranky with outside noise. (Yes, I have officially become my mother.) I get it was a holiday, but shut up already right??? To Diane - whoop whoop - PA in the house! Diane, Robyn, Laura

Enjoyed reading about your background, which brought you to where you are today. I'm pretty sure that someday Chani, Ty, and Caitlin will all also be 'scared shitless' to try to live up the the beautiful, dynamic personality of their mom =) - sounds like you are a great leader and role model for them. Looking forward to learning more about you as time goes on here!

I don't think that anyone becoming a parent has any real idea of the joys and pleasures, woes and heartache, that accompany having children and it's wonderful to read from both you and Jeremy how much of a team you two are. And considering your first gig as a parent was as a step-mom; kudos to you for not running the other direction as fast as you could. Jeremy must have been some real catch! ;) Congratulations on your new baby girl, and if I can tell you one thing for sure, they grow up oh-so-fast so enjoy every moment with them, even the ones where you might think they're on your last nerve. :) Lins latest blog nuggle..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TellingItLikeItIs/~3/327306114/today-is-my-birthday-happy-birthday-to-me.html" rel="nofollow">Today is My Birthday: Happy Birthday to Me</a> What a lovely story Lori, and a beautiful way of telling it.

I feel like I just got my pigtails pulled by the cute boy behind me in class. Pssst... Do you like me? Check Yes ____ or No ______ Sean - the family values I have witnessed in most PA homes just seem well, different, from other places I have lived. Do you agree? Thanks for letting me know you liked the post! Ange - you're right, no matter how "prepared" you think you are, you have no idea until you just jump right in. I am thankful that Jeremy and I are a TEAM, doing it together. Camilla - WOW! I think that is the first time I have been ever called "brilliant"! You made my weekend!
