It’s only in Atlanta that you’ll have one weekend with such snowy weather, that it provides at least 2″ across the city, and the very next weekend have it be warm enough to go to the park and have a picnic. We decided to take advantage of both weekends by treading in the snow, and [...]

So lately when I’ve been reading random blogs, I’ve thought to myself…dang, if only I could write like that… Here are some memorable quotes from posts that definitely made me smile: Pantley (NCSS) advocating ‘no cry’, Weissbluth advocating ‘let ‘em cry!
