I love reading your blog. I of...Great post, Alysun. I love reading your blog. I often "write" blogs like this in my head, but never get around to getting them onto the computer. I'm a slow writer, and it's all I can do to keep up with pictures and anecdotes of the kids (my main reason for blogging since I'm horrible at scrapbooking and the like). But anyway, you do a great job at both kinds of blogging. <br /><br />I've totally been there with the wondering why or why not an adventure went a certain way. One of our most recent adventures that went very well was our trip to the county fair. We got there later than intended, our parking situation was a flop, Ben didn't want to sit in the stroller after about the first 10 minutes, we all were sweating hot, my nephew and niece who are prone to pouting were with us, and my mom (who I butt heads with occasionally) was with us as well. But somehow we all had a wonderful time and we just kept staying and staying...for 7 hours in all and without naps! I think it was mostly my attitude this time, taking the problems in stride and being flexible. It also helped that baby Jake napped and nursed well, even in the strange setting.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05548063638135975715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12175575.post-32536172048496950382011-08-13T04:48:49.748-07:002011-08-13T04:48:49.748-07:00I just love this post, Alysun !
