Judy Blume

Ok, I have a ton of stuff to do right now, but honestly I need a minute to catch my breath. The half-made pumpkin bread will just have to wait in the fridge, the groceries in the bags on the kitchen floor will have to wait, the unhung coats, the un put away shoes, the keys, the purse, all will have to just WAIT!!!!!!!

We all grew up reading Judy Blume books right? You know, Blubber, Fudge - Judy Blume books? Well, like other parents we've read these to our kids and laughed but today I'm not laughing.

Why? Because THE BOOK just entered my house! What book? THE BOOK!

"Are you there God? It's Me, Margaret."

We've covered all the "basics" over here in our little house, but still I guess it IS a rite of passage for all little girls to read this. Why does it make mommies feel so funny inside?

I guess as the days pass, we realize they are growing up so I will say. . .

. . ."enjoy the book". ( and then shut my mouth)

  2. I found your daughter's blog through Candid Carrie and her blog is cute as a button.
    THE BOOK was well loved by me and def. a rite of passage. It is so hard when our kids grow up (mine is 18) but she seems to be a smart kid. I love that she has the confidence to put it all out into the blogosphere.
    Take a deep breath, it will be okay.
