Roll Call

So I have been blogging now since... hang on while I check my old blog... since March of 2006 and really have been enjoying the outlet. Plus, I get to "meet" amazing people from all over the country (and Canada, eh?). People I would actually want to hang out with if they were not so far away. They account for the tens and tens of readers that I have, and they usually comment semi-regularly.

But according to Statcounter, there have been over 19,000 hits on this blog alone in the past 21 months. Who are you? I am dying to know. I have had people check in from China, the UK, Italy, and even from one of the "Stans", I just cannot remember which one. Now some of these hits are probably just passing through, but many revisit and stay a while. Yet I have no clue who you are.

So give me a shout out in the comment box (including you tens of tens that I know about already) and tell me where you are and who you are, if you are so inclined. If you blog, leave the address. If you don't, just sign in under the "Name/URL" option. I'd love to "meet" you!

I'm here, too. I was thinking about asking folks to come out of hiding, too.

And how did the creative laundry work out? ;)

I love dropping in to check on you and your family! Thanks for stopping by my blog as well.:-) Of course, I'm one of the people from Italy... at least for the next year and one month. In Christ, Talya

Hello my name is AMy, I live in Reading, LOL! I like to read what you have to say, as it makes me feel not so crazy and alone with my crew here!!!

I've been following you from Iowa for awhile now...Lurking. I don't remember how I found your blog- mostly looking for homeschooling families because although my oldest is just 3.5, I would love to do just that. Anyhow, your journey into foster-parenthood has been really neat to watch. Thanks for your blog!

I'm here too. It is interesting to know what you are thinking since most of our conversations deal with what the grandkids are doing.

Roll call was such a good idea! I'm here, SIL! I love to hear your ideas, your trials and tribulations, and your updates. Keep up the good work!

Shanna said...

Well, I can't remember now if you stumbled upon my blog first or if I stumbled upon yours :o). Still come by as often as I can.

i only recently started reading your blog (not sure why I didn't before) just to keep up on you and your kids as we don't get to see you as often as we'd like! and of course Iggy and Josh are almost the same age so we have something in common now more than just being married to Petersen men. :)
