A popular question among the kids in my house these days is, "Why"?
As in:
Parent: "Please don't stand too close to the baby when you're sick because you could give her your germs."
Child: "Why?"
Or,
Parent: "After you eat some lunch, you can have dessert."
Child: "Why?"
Here's another one:
Parent: "Go wash your hands off since they're all sticky from glue."
Child: "Why?"
You get the idea.
So, in answer to the question of "Why?", I thought of the following motivations for starting this:
1. As an outlet for the frustrated author in me
2. To provide some, hopefully, helpful tips on parenting, cooking and living that I've picked up, mostly through trial and error
3. To communicate with far-off family and friends
4. As a fun way of "keeping a journal," like my mother always tells me to do
5. As a tool to procrastinate from more pressing tasks
I also figured I would have the market cornered on blogs posted by young, working moms with toddler-aged children, since who else would be crazy enough to spend the time writing one?
