If you read my blog, please let me know! Even if I know you and know you read, leave me a comment. If I don't know you, then please de-lurk. It doesn't hurt. I promise. I'd love to know why you read. Really. Really! Pretty please? Or if you don't want to leave a long comment, then just say, "Hi!"
Every now and then I'm troubled by the blog...The whole blog thing is a little random. When I stop to think about it, I can't believe I actually write a lot of details about my life and publish them on the Internet. However, I've met lots of nice people (see sidebar) and I read lots of other people's blogs and I find them so useful and interesting. I would love to know more about the people who read this on a regular basis. Your comments will sustain and fortify me.
I personally vow that I will de-lurk on a couple of blogs that I read, but where I don't comment. C'mon, de-lurk... Everyone's doing it! (Tee hee... Peer pressure.)
Thanks and XOXO!

OK, I couldn't just leave this post crying out for comments. When I started typing this it was still bereft and alone. I'm not very good at lurking, I like to have my 2c worth, I like to tell my vaguely relevant stories, give advice and have opinions. I read this because I like the way you think, you entries often click with me and you reached out of the blue to me in friendship.
Guten Tag! Your blog has been a life-saver in keeping me connected and in touch, despite the 9-hour time difference and thousands of miles between us. I feel like I'll be able to jump right back in where I left when I return in 2 years. Thanks for being such an avid blogger!!! Reading your blog is a highlight of my day! :-)
Hi! I love checking your blog for updates on the girls and work :-) and because it's fun to read about your adventures with own 3 little ones!
Why do I read? Why do I read? For one, I may be a mother to 3 little girls some day, so it's great to hear how you maintain your sanity (mostly--hee hee) and what kinds of activities you do with them. It makes me laugh how often you blog, but I could never do what you do, so I shouldn't! Does this comment sustain and fortify you?? I hope so!
I've been waiting for an appropriate time to de-lurk.
I have been reading your blog on a daily basis for quite awhile now (justa sec, I'm checking your archives to see when I started)- since sometime last spring.
I read your blog because, I am in my final year of a Bachelor of Applied Arts in Child and Youth Studies program, and I really enjoy hearing about your girls. I have taken many developmental psychology courses and I love to hear accounts of their adventures in growing up.
I am working towards becoming a Speech-Language Pathologist, so I especially love reading about the language acquisition.
Reading about all their development at different ages really brings my studies to life.
I also enjoy reading about what your life is like. Though I am only 22 now, I hope to someday have a husband, children and a job, like you. It amazes me that you juggle it all, and embrace and enjoy the craziness (most of the time). Quite inspirational (so it CAN be done, huh?!).
I hope that this doesn't sound weird or anything. Sorry to be lurking for so long. But I'm glad that I had a chance to introduce myself. If it's alright with you I may leave some comments now. I never did before, because I thought it would seem strange to have a complete stranger leaving comments out of the blue.
Is it lurking if you are a recuring character in the blog? I read my lovely wife's blog everyday. Its fun to see how someone else summarizes the craziness of the day.
Ah! I misspelled my initials. See why my wife drives the blog around here?
I have commented only once before (regarding Christmas ornaments). I stumbled across this blog initally because of the title. I am the middle of three sisters, so that was the initial hook. Also, I am a recent (8 months now) aunt and like to hear about kids at different ages. Many days I read your blog and a family memory is triggered, bringing another smile to my day, so Thank You for blogging.
