Two (tags) in one
I’m it. I’ve been tagged. Interestingly, I have never played the actual tag/it game as a child. How does it work?!
I’m going to do it in reverse. I was tagged by lotsacheeks in which she says she LOVES my blog! I fainted a little bit when I read that.
I do read quite a few blogs, probably more than I should. There are practical blogs for finances and business, funny blogs about people’s kids and the funny things their kids do, painful blogs that chronicle plights, inspirational blogs that just makes you feel good because their motto is “there are more good in this world than there are bad,” and so many more others.
I read all of my friend’s blogs. However, these ones really stand out to me, in no particular order:
ac360blog (CNN’s Anderson Cooper, and his colleagues. And it doesn’t hurt that I think A.C. is very hot)
so close (Tertia. I found her after my miscarriage 3 yrs ago. She’s multi talented — wrote and published a book while raising small twins, working full time. She’s down to earth and yet damn gorgeous at the same time. And I love her recent boob job)
chookooloonks (Karen is a true inspiration, in every aspect of life. She is one of those that when I read her, my spirit and mood gets a huge lift. She is someone who I would want to be when I grow up. And her photo skills are beyond superb)
ask moxie (moxie has all the answers of raising kids, anything and everything about kids, but especially sleeping issues)
Please don’t feel left out if I didn’t list your blog. I love to read about your lives as well as see all the pretty pictures of your kids, and read about your troubled and frustrating days, and about how stupid people (friends, families, strangers) can be.
Some day I need to redo my page to add in all the blog links. Yes some linkylove!!!!!
********************
The other tag was by mumsgather to write 8 random facts about my own mom.
1. My mom and dad were born 9 days apart. Same year. Their cities of birth were less than 20 miles apart.
2. She was “sent” to the boonies to do farm work at some smaller village/community during the cultural revolution. I think this was before she got married.
3. My mom (and dad) were forced into hiding when they implemented the “One Child” law, to give birth to me. See the About me.
4. My mom is one of 9 children.
5. My mom is one of the most patient person I know.
6. My mom has one fake front tooth.
7. She was very well lactated when she was breastfeeding us kids. Sorry mom,
you probably find that disclosure to be embarrassing, but you should really be proud of yourself.
8. My mom is the one of those women who stand by their husband, no matter what.

Now I want to tag anyone and everyone who comes across this post. Let me know in the comment section where I can find your own responses.
You are all IT!
