In an effort to save money, I am printing off the blog, (6 times over, one for each of the kids plus Bob and myself) rather than having the blog book I was so excited about published.

As I print....and print....and print....and print.....I see it ALL set out before me. ALL the stuff I have written ALL year long.

I'm wincing as I look at it.

I'm finding myself totally annoying ;-)

At least with my plain old photo albums I'm not there 'talking' all over them.

Blah blah blah blah........

All those hours I have spent typing the documentation of our lives (and my thoughts!) out.

All the trees being sacrificed to give this notebook out to the children.

All these thousands of words I have launched into cyberspace to make our family known and my voice heard.

Who cares about my opinions anyway!?? (Besides me, of course :) Seriously, this is seeming kind of ridiculous. I can not imagine that even my beloved offspring would have the time or desire to read through all of this chatter.

Hmmm. I sit here scratching my head thinking I do hope it's worth all this.
