Glad to see you started one of your own! I'm a crazy blogger myself - like yours, mine is mostly about my kids. ANYWAY, I am making a book of our blog by year, and I'm using Blurb.com. So far it's been great. You download the free software and then upload your book to have it printed and delivered to you. I have my first book ready to order, so I haven't actually seen the print quality. Just thought I'd share.

Granted, Joe's has been the only blog i've ever really read, but now that you're blogging, I read a whopping two!--- and let me tell you- it has been a pleasure. I enjoy hearing about your kids and your perspective on this life... (and Little Sophia has quite the eye for photography!) thanks for sharing your life with us... zeb Hey Laura,

They're great for writing phone numbers, notes and doodles down on! ;) Regardless, I'm sure Sophia prefers that things worked out this way, at least for now. Have fun on your occupation dates; they sound like a blast! I have a drawer full of rejection letters as well, Laura!

I think it's such a cool idea for an alphabet book. It must be really fun to see a piece of your dream come to fruition as you experience making this with Sophia. I've studied all over the publishing industry, and the idea of trying to submit something is still so daunting to me. I'm glad that you haven't given up on your project, though.

I'll let her know that she is in good company. Great idea on the occupational field trips!
