this might be my favorite post yet.
as a kid, i couldn’t get enough of judy blume.
the danielle steele bit made me laugh out loud.
i don’t think i’ve told you this amy, but i grew up without a TV, on a farm, in the middle of nowhere.

reading & music were the things i grew to love from an early age on. you name it, i read it.

my friends and i would do dramatic things of this sort….centered around a book.
this took me back…amazing!

I was just thinking about this book the other day. I was wondering if girls today wonder about the “belts” they talk about in this book and if that kind of thing makes it difficult for our daughters to get into.

I also recently re-read “Then Again, Maybe I Won’t” and am ready to leave it for my boy to read.

You are incorrigible. Because I’ve been reading, pretty much non-stop since yesterday afternoon, a book you gave me a couple months ago. So it’s not just your kids who are influenced by your good taste in literature…

Lovely post. It truly captures the angst we, as parents (or is it moms?), put ourselves through, and then after the fact, realize the kids often find the best solution on their own. The whole “god” thing resonates with me, as I too struggle with how to respond to my childrens’ questions about traditional religions, god, etc.

Thank you for sharing!
