Post 100 ½
Posted by Stephanie | Filed under SoMo Favs
Post 100 and a half? Man, we are milking this 100th post thingy? This is an extension of Anita’s Monday’s post because I wanted to include a paragraph I particularly love from her book. I feel it really rings true to what so many of us talk about here at Southern MOMentum.
It goes something like this…
When your kids are small, people will say to you: “Treasure every moment. They grow up so fast. Don’t blink or you’ll miss it.” Well, I think I speak for a host of women when I say — we blinked. A lot. Blinking, blinking, blinking — hoping to skip over just a ”little” bit of it. As a former mother to multiple simultaneous preschoolers, let me say that some days are just like the movie Groundhog Day, where Bill Murray gets to live the same day over … and over… and over again. It feels like that — the same Cheerios, the same apple juice, the same questions, the same laundry. I’m not saying that it’s not wonderful, just r-e-a-l-l-y familiar. (Blink, blink.)
So when you are done blinking, be sure to get yourself entered in the book/dvd combo prizepack. Trust me, it really is a great (and hilarious) book! I will be drawing the three winners this Friday at noon. (See 1ooth post for details.)
