Magical Childhood newsletter<\/a>. First it was nearly weekly, then monthly, then it tapered off to once or twice a year. I always felt guilty, like I was letting down countless readers by being such a deadbeat. \ud83d\ude42 I went from having two little girls to four kids of all ages and I never seemed to find the time to put together a whole newsletter that met my rather perfectionistic standards. I still wanted to stay connected to all the wonderful mamas (and grandmas and teachers and librarians and day care workers…) who had written and let me into their magical lives or asked for support when life seemed way less than magical. And I kept finding neat stuff I wanted to share.<\/p>\nThis blog is my way of trying to get connected once more to all the fabulous folks out there who are trying to give their kids a magical life. I miss typing to you in the middle of the night. I miss sharingwacky ideas and craft recipes. I’m back.<\/p>\n
As I type this, I once again have a sleeping little one in my arms. There is mayhem going on behind me, as always. And there’s so much I want to share with you all again.<\/p>\n
Let’s have some fun then, shall we?<\/p>\n
Happy Monday!<\/p>\n
