My blog is two years old today. I guess that makes it a toddler.
A few days ago, I started thinking of all the ways we can compare a blog to a child:
1.) It/he is something we create.
2.) We decide on a name for it/him.
3.) We watch constantly for signs that it/he is growing.
4.) We smile when people say nice things about it/him.
5.) We feel proud when awards are bestowed upon it/him.
6.) We worry when it/he isn’t doing well.
7.) We enjoy sharing it/him with others.
8.) It/he is in our thoughts everyday (and in the middle of the night).
9.) We neglect(ed) housework to spend time with it/him.
10.) And last but not least…
…we celebrate birthdays.
these days of mine 
So true. Mummy is very protective of us and our little blog. It takes up so much of her time and though many people cannot see what she gains from it she feel happier when she knows it is well cared for.

I always enjoy seeing everyone’s family grow and your little toddlerblog is no different. Keep up the good work. Your stories and pictures are so inspiring!
I always look forward ot your blog…you’re one of the few bloggers I follow that post EVERY day! Very appropriate blog for the day!
It’s hard to believe it’s been two years and I know you’ve had a good time writing them and we’ve all had a good time reading them…but your blog will never be as cute as that little boy!
I absolutely LOVE this comparison…every word is true! Happy Blog Birthday!
Congratulations on your two-year anniversary! I loved the pictures you used today! I don’t always comment (sometimes I feel I have little to add) but I always enjoy reading your blogs and looking at those beautiful pictures.

Happy Second Birthday!! Another milestone! – and I like the analogy today! This is the first place I visit when I go online everyday …. 😉
So true!! Beautiful thoughts. I guess we really do give ‘birth’ to our blogs, don’t we? Happy Second Birthday to one of my very favorite blogs!! Celebrate!
Looks like Laura today. I guess he had his tonsils out too. Laura is doing well. Great post.
Marshall DID have his tonsils out the year after this picture was taken. This surgery was to have a cyst removed from under his chin. Scary times for Mom and Dad, but he was a little trouper!
One thing I know for sure—there will be NO terrible twos. :-). Congrats.
Hi, whee have a little something waiting for you over on our blog . . .
