Sure, I received a miter noticed for christmas and a compressor and nail gun for my birthday. 

Why do you want writing for the weblog? And why do you assume it issues?

I like writing for The Child Cubby as a result of once I first grew to become a mom I used to be clueless. No actually, the primary diaper I ever modified was my first daughter’s within the hospital. It felt lonely and like I wasn’t ok as a result of I hadn’t grown up round infants. Being a mom didn’t really feel pure in any respect. Blogs like The Child Cubby’s have been lifelines for me to know that I wasn’t alone and to provide me recommendation or to straight up inform me methods to do sure issues.

I hope that among the issues I write can profit different new moms or moms within the thick of all of it like me. I additionally am enthusiastic about writing (therefore my English levels) and I missed writing always like I did in class. 

I believe this can be very vital to not lose our particular person identities after we develop into mom’s and writing for the weblog has helped me preserve a way of Abby. Motherhood may be an thrilling and on the similar time a grueling journey, however I like that we don’t should go at it alone.
