Late yesterday afternoon, I took my children and my camera outside during the last “golden hour” before sunset and took some photos. On my 365 project photography blog, I posted the following photo of Sarah Kate creating a chalk masterpiece on the driveway.
Let me just say: I loved the image. I hurried inside to post it and then went back out to call her in for dinner, at which point I was able to see her finished artwork:
“Mommy blogs” – cute, right? But nearby I saw this one:
I’m now wondering if I need to rethink this whole “blog every day for 31 days” thing.
What do you think?
Beth Leger says
I think it doesn’t necessarily mean that’s a negative thing. I’d be interested in knowing what she thinks about it. Does she think “Mom’s always on the computer…” followed by a heavy sigh, or something else? Does she see your photography & blogs and what does she think of them?

Well, it sounds just about perfect to me. It’s Nathan’s job to be wild, Mr. Andi’s to be silly — and yours to tell us all about it. : )
Amy says
I agree with Beth!
wendy at mama one to three says
why?? I don’t think it’s a negative. That is what she knows as your “work.” I think it’s adorable and she has some talent, that one!

i agree with the other comments, i’d take being on the computer over some other descriptions a kid could choose anytime!
Andi says
LOL! Definitely!

I don’t think it’s negative at all. It’s a fact: it’s where you do your work! 🙂
Andi says
That’s pretty much what she said when I asked her about it the next day. She told me she was very proud of me!
Kathy says
I love that you are all holding hands in the chalk picture!

Andi says
We don’t do that much in real life, I’m sorry to say, but we ARE a very close family.
Ellen says
See? Glad it wasn’t what you thought it meant.
The benefits of blogging totally outweigh any negatives, in my mind. You will know if she really thinks you’re not paying attention. There was a period when I had work piled up and I had to do a lot on a weekend and Sabrina finally said, “GET OFF THE COMPUTER!” Hint taken. 🙂
Andi says
I agree wholeheartedly, Ellen. I took it (at first) as a negative, but she didn’t mean it that way at all. She is proud of what I’m doing, and that’s what will help me to press on!
