Well, I mentioned how I blog on Xanga and have for years. This weekend I received an email from the site that they are most likely shutting down this summer. If they can raise enough funds they will keep it open but the format will change and ... I think we have to pay for it? Ugh! I know Xanga isn't as popular as it used to be and every blogger seems to go with other sites like Blogger, Tumblr, Wordpress, etc. It will be sad to see it go and this will be my only home to blog. As of now I will still keep it open to the public but I won't be using it as often or quite like I did with Xanga. Good things don't last forever. I love blogging. It's a great outlet for me, especially as a stay-at-home mother that doesn't have a lot going on aside from taking care of a house, a husband and the kids.
Matthew is now finished with his first season of tball. This evening the boys, parents and coaches are getting together for a little party at a playground down the street from my house. It's sad to see the season come to a close but Matthew looks forward to playing again, and maybe this fall. The rest of the week will be a busy one. Today I'm planning to take the kids to the library to sign up for The Summer Reading Club. This will be the third year we've participated. We read books to the kids, log the minutes and earn prizes. The final prize, after reading a total of 800 minutes, is a free ticket to the minor league baseball game in our area.
Looking forward to a fun summer before sending our big guy off to kindergarten.
Aw they grow up so quickly! That reading club is a great idea, books were always my favourite as a child and I plan on reading to our bean every day!
