As with any new endeavour, this site may take some time to get up and running so I hope if you stumble across it, you’ll come back and visit again at least a few times while we work out the logistics of WordPress etc. It is my first attempt at writing a blog completely of my own - with the technical side being provided by my wonderful, and talented husband (incidentally, though these adjectives are precise, this is in fact an attempt at shameless ego stroking as encouragement to continue…). My primary goal for this site is to provide information, entertainment and perhaps some occasional food for thought for parents of young children. I hope this site can be enjoyed by many parents - those who have ample patience, and those who might need to borrow some from time to time.

My vision right now is to provide a space a little different from most of the parenting sites I frequent. I do hope that I can be similar to these sites in providing some useful tips and insights into the day-to-day struggles of parenting, as well as sharing in the joys and bliss of being a stay-at-home mom of one, soon to be two. I’ve noticed though that many parenting sites provide only information regarding the act of parenting, and the struggles of parenthood and/or childhood. As a stay-at-home mom, I find it difficult to get my daily dose of “something to think about”, some adult opinions and ideas, maybe a recommendation or two of books to read or must see movies. I certainly hope this site will provide some stimulating ideas in addition to the usual. To this end, I look forward to feedback from those who read this site as to what they’ve liked or not liked, and what they would like to read about the next time they visit. So please, pour yourself a coffee or tea, sit back for as long as you can spare (I know how little time that might really be), and hopefully enjoy what you read today.

Cheers!
