Open to Anyone? are we ready?


Ok I am a picture gal so finally pictures... although I still am not sure about putting pics of the kids on.....

I am also wrestling with letting anyone view this blog...am I brave enough to put it out there for anyone? and will Sam freak out hahahahah..... will I? 
any  thoughts from my peanut gallery....

risk nothing gain nothing is coming to mind...

I am very excited about the book I am writing right now... Little bits of Ribbon.. it is a children's book.... I was all fired up to be writing again and I am more than 1/2 way through and I am excited about this one the most I have several others finished but I'm not as excited about them. However...and Mary this will speak to you I was reading just yesterday that for every 10,000 manuscripts submitted only 3 children's books are published !!!!!!!! wow I knew it would be a long journey but wow.

quote for today..." The real price of everything is the toil and the trouble of aquiring it" -Adam Smith Wealth of Nations 1776

So the sun was shining today it is was warm which is awsome because it has been cold and foggy here for a week I was so excited and driving home from Santa Maria...for the 2nd time today I had songs playing and 4 kids in the car surprisingly they were quiet and I had the song 100 years by five for fighting playing and P #3 son was swaying and shifting his head to the music in the sun.....it was so cool the sun was shining in it was great.....then of course as all the mother's out there know the peace was broken with H saying S looked at him and "when were we going to be home" and "what was for dinner" and so and so did this.......etc etc...

on a side note you know how something sticks in your mind and you keep going back to it often...well a couple of months ago I read this great article it was strange to begin with because the article was about the tattoo business and I don't particularily like tattoos no offense to those who have them more power to you I could never commit to aything that permanent hahahah and just because it isn't for me doesn't mean that others can't have one...that said I'm not a fan but this article was awsome this guy is expanding his market share and has reshaped the business in this amazingway from a marketing standpoint this is pure genius how he did this I mean I was enthralled with this guys marketing ideas and his whole approach it was really inovative so I have to say go find this article and read it it is just awsome !!!!!! I was at the same office today where I read it months ago  so it popped up again

it is in INC. magazine the December 2007 issue and the article is called King Ink on page 98
for you business friends out there Pauline Liz and Jenny you have to read it this guys ideas are just so interesting and his new products how he has changed the whole industry it is fascinating

Ok the twins have managed to open and cause mayhm and disarray to everything in the house and it is bedtime here at the zoo...so off for now ! hugs to all
