Although I've only started reading recently, I can't help but smile when I see John Bear in the pictures. You two look very happy together, and as a friend of John Bear's, I couldn't be happier for both of you. I truly wish you two the best.

How exciting! I love Transformers! I have 2 younger brothers, and we watched all the toons and had most of the toys. So sad, but somewhere down the road we lost them. I was extremely excited to introduce my son to them when they came on the big screen! I saw the trailer during his school's private screening of Shrek 3, and I squealed like a teenager at a boy band concert. lol Have fun w/ your new roomies. Has Ben seen the movies? Big boy toys!

I just opened up a package, and after turning the truck into a robot, my son wanted me to turn it back into a truck -- yeah, right. Instructions from IKEA are easier to figure out...

I think the word "sad" was maybe too big an expression... But I'm also not sure what word I should have used. I didn't mean to step on any toes, I like following this blog! And thanks famejane, I didn't know there were links to other sites, I will look for them now.

I've been reading your blog since last summer (thought just started posting) and I used to feel like I had so much in common with you and your other readers - like we could all relate to each other so much, and now I'm starting not to feel that connection as much. It seems like the blog is becoming less about the struggles of singlemomhood, and more about a love story. Now, that being said, it's wonderful, absolutely wonderful and I am so happy for you. I've decided to use your story as one of hope and inspiration. So...maybe your blog becomes more about "single mom falls in love and lives happily ever after" and that would be great...and I would keep reading simply because I admire and respect you and you're a marvelous writer. So, in my book, it's all good! Keep up the good work. To Kika: there are many other wonderful single mom blogs (many of which Alaina links to) that might provide you with the support you're looking for. There is room for everybody.

Andrea - so happy to hear from you... and yes, I was with you on wanting to just be alone forever but it's best to at least be open to it for our sons. If it happens, great. If not, we'll be happy anyway. Kika - I hate that this makes you sad. I really do... please read back in my years of archives as I never, ever thought I would find a John Bear. Well, I guess I always had hope, but this is all me to me too. Jen – yes, the silver will be available soon, in just a few weeks now.

I think there are a lot of good tips, and "John Bear" stories are enjoyable. I know that my goal is to have a happy meaningful life and eventually find the guy who will love me and my kids in a way where we are all happy. But in the end it makes me sad that I don't have a guy like you do and I have a hard time relating. I will keep reading your post and feel happy for you and Benjamin that you have found someone to share your special moments with.
