Welcome to Life (Expect the Unexpected)

Dear readers,

Please understand it's my first blog post ever.  I have just written a book and I want to get everything right.    Tantrums, Troubles, and Treasures took a year to write and 14 years to garner the knowledge to write it.  I am anxious, nervous, and a bit scared.  What if no one reads this blog?  Worse yet, what if they read it but don't like it?

With all these feelings inside me, I decide to let go and take a chance.  Hopefully, people will like my blog and my book.  Maybe I can make a difference in the lives of parents.  Maybe I can explain parenting situations in a way that clicks with readers.  OK, I am ready!

Uh-oh!  Luke just woke up from his nap and I have to be a parent.  I can't type much longer so here's a lesson for all parents.  Parenting (like this blog) isn't going to go the way you expect at all times.  We, as parents, have to adapt and move forward.  I am ready to move forward with Luke.  I hope you keep an open mind when reading the book and my blog.  We aren't always going to agree on how to parent.  That's great!  I hope to help by making you think about your parenting.  You may decide you are on the right path.  You may also decide there are areas you need some assistance.  Take care and be good to your kids.  They may be planning your retirement home one day.
