I thought to myself...what better way to re-enter the online community than meeting John & Sherry from Young House Love? Yeah, I couldn't think of anything more awesome either.
Of course, they were sweet and gracious. This is how I remember our conversation...
Me: (Stammering and a bit star struck) I like your diapers.
Them: (Awkward stare.)
Me: Um...I really liked your cloth diapers posts. They were so helpful in making my decision to use cloth diapers.
Sherry: Yeah, the diapers are great. I don't want to turn into one of those people who talk about cloth diapers all the time.
Me: (Thinking: Oh, have I turned into one of those people? Is that really a bad thing? I must be one of those people. I'm okay with that.) Saying: I read a quote somewhere that said something like, "You'll know if a mom uses cloth diapers because she'll be sure to talk about it."
Sherry: (Said something in agreement to the quote. I don't remember.)
Picture time.
My awesome husband (who bought me the YHL book for Christmas) took the pictures above. He also waited in line with me for 2 hours. Baby did really well with the long line. In preparation for a long wait, I had been practicing at home nuring in the moby wrap and my new skills came in handy.
I can easily say that the book signing was the highlight of my weekend!
It was just the motivation I needed to get back into crafting projects and blog posts.
What has inspired you recently?
Awesome! I can't wait to read that book. Great work on nursing in the wrap! :)

Super Awesome - we went and met them too when they were in Minneapolis! They are such nice people. Welcome back - can't wait to hear more about baby!
ReplyDeletehahah, this post was awesome. It's impossible not to be one of those people who talks about cloth diapers all the time. I wish I could wear a button that says "Ask me about my cloth diapers. PLEASE!!"
