My choice for the Perfect Post Award this month was a last-minute decision, after a blogger sent me a link to a post he wrote yesterday on why it’s a great idea for moms and dads to blog about their kids. It was brilliantly written and made me feel really good about being a mommyblogger.
Despite what a couple of killjoys would have us think, this post reminds us that we’re actually creating a way for our kids (and grandkids and great grandkids) to know who we really were and are, at a time when they’re grown-ups themselves and can really appreciate it. And that is awesome. Congratulations, Shoot the Moose, on a Perfect Post.
Now check out some of the other Perfect Post Awards. I promise you won’t be disappointed! And if you’d like to participate next month, send me an e-mail and I’ll add you to the mailing list.
