A Recent Afternoon's Conversation in the Car

Written on February 14, 2010 by in I Forgot to Assign a Catagory

Newt: [pensively] Do you ever think it’s weird that strangers read your blog?
Me: I used to, but I don’t anymore.
Newt: But why would they care about our family?
Me: I don’t know. I guess they read it because they think I’m a good writer.
Newt: [derisive laughter]
Me: [indignantly] Did you laugh? [turning to look] Why are you laughing? You’re mean!
Newt: [laughs more and spews Starbucks kids hot cocoa out her nose - then laughs harder]
Me: I am so going to blog about this.
Newt: Touche.

    First it was the cute people in the doll house. And stories about your mom. And because it’s nice to see glimpses into other people’s homeschooling. Now I care what happens to your family!
    Whatever the reason, we do read… so keep it up! :)

    Kids. What can you do though? Without ‘em, you’d have so little to blog ABOUT.

    I care too, btw!

    Because Newt, your mom is funny :) Sometimes we need to laugh with others so we can laugh at ourselves.
    It started out as visiting a fellow homeschooler’s blog. Now, I too care :)

    Newt, I read your moms blog because she is a fabulous writer and has a wierd way of looking at life. She is very funny but not as funny as your auntie.
