Ha! I wondered where it all started and never got far enough back to look (I have years of reading to catch up on, oh what will I do). What a brilliant beginning!

I stumbled on your blog while doing a search (seriously!) on flotsam. You have an amazing ability to find the humor in even the most tragic situations. I couldn’t stop reading and chuckling over your posts. Someday I hope to hear that you have a bestseller.

I’ve been following your blog for a couple of months now and it’s great that things are going so well with Simone! Yayyy!

I never looked up Flotsam until now. I just had to finally figure it out because I found the book “Flotsam” by David Wiesner in the children’s section of the library and brought it home to read to my YDD. No words… but a totally cool story! Check it out if you haven’t already!

Alexa, I found you via my friend Tanya, interestingly, you’re mentioned on another blog I read “Doctor Mama.” My husband and I have a daughter with the middle name Simone and we also live in the Twin Cities. You’re Simone will do well. Pump, Pump, Pump!

Hi. I’m from the outside world too. I stumbled upon you via a link from Julie too, surely the birthplace of all good blogs?

I pray that your daughter is ok. I’m just beginning at the beginning of yours tory, but I know enough to know that my heart is in my throat as I await news of your beautiful Simone.
