For My Stalkers

I know you are out there. Because you have told me. Thanks for coming out of the closet. To you I say the following:

Dudes! why would I go to the trouble of writing to you every single day if I didn’t hope you would read it?

I am flattered that you spend your precious cyber time with our family. And delighted that we amuse you. It’s nice that the slow passing of my sanity should benefit someone. Really.

And since we’re coming out of the closet here, I have to let you know I actually have a goal with this blog. Besides preserving precious memories, that is. I am striving for 1,000 theJLBs fans. And considering that I have around 30 at the moment, and most of them are related to me, that means that I really need to step it up. REALLY.

I’ve been trying to figure out how to do this. Giveaways? Tutorials? Blow-by-blow recounts of the highly inappropriate1 things we’ve done with our babies in-tow? I’m sure the winning answer will surface.

In the meantime, if you know someone who should be a theJLBs fan, let them know they should hop on this train. Make us the next John and Kate Plus 8! But without the other 6. And definitely without the alleged infidelity. Or the paparazzi. Oh just forget it. Jim is NOT going to be happy about this2.

Thanks for reading.
P.S. Jim updated the masthead for the season. Do not ask him to do this again. It really stresses him out3.
