I love
blogging. I love writing about my experiences with my kids, sharing ideas and tips, and getting feedback and hearing the opinions of the readers who leave comments. For the most part, I try to keep my blogs upbeat and positive, even while discussing something challenging--like
a hospital stay with a sick child or the
never-ending cycle called housework. But just for fun, here are a few examples of blogs I might write, followed by what I might really be thinking:

I try to keep things real on my personal blog, at least to some extent.

I do try to also write positive posts, though.
