We meet the most amazing people, make friends, learn new tips and get inspiration. But what Erin did for your daughters is above & beyond what you normally see.

I love the pictures you post of your girls, and all the cute and funny stories you share. <br /><br />You're an amazing blogger and you will always have more good than bad because of your heart.

I think I'm going to have to start reading less blogs because I do so much of my reading through Reader on my phone, and clicking over just won't work that way.

I hope I never encounter that kind of situation, or nasty remarks as well. <br /><br />When I started blogging, the whole point was to share my ideas, thoughts etc to my friends, it was a perk that I met new and nice people along the way, but in then end, I am putting myself out there and would appreciate some decency on poeple who are, technically, just browsing by to see your ideas right? But I guess that is the risk you take for blogging. And I have to say the benefits, especially for popular blogs such as yours, outweighs all that. I'm happy for you. :-)Vel Cristehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07296838254480885046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-25803169702341779042012-08-29T16:37:54.701-04:002012-08-29T16:37:54.701-04:00No, thank YOU for putting a smile on my face today...No, thank YOU for putting a smile on my face today Amanda!Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02207023707994396637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-26440784649900112682012-08-29T13:51:51.097-04:002012-08-29T13:51:51.097-04:00That is so nice!!! there are so many great things ...That is so nice!!! there are so many great things about blogging...I can't even imagine not being part of this community now!Cassie {Hi Sugarplum}https://www.blogger.com/profile/09407708187775806177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-34084784302352670002012-08-29T12:56:00.184-04:002012-08-29T12:56:00.184-04:00I must be incredibly lucky, because I've never...I must be incredibly lucky, because I've never received a mean comment on my blog, and as far as I know, nobody has stolen my content (I'm not sure how I would check for it, though!).
