People sometimes ask me why I blog (since I am just a little blogger, nothing big.....and apparently some people think you should only blog to get a book deal, lol) and I respond, because it allows me to connect with people all over.  I&amp;#39;ve been blessed to be able to help others with a recipe, or a care package in different countries that I&amp;#39;ve never been to.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You have an amazing heart, and I cannot wait for the auction!</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20266288/2732169782358333576/comments/default/4613139316068002991'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20266288/2732169782358333576/comments/default/4613139316068002991'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.adventuresinbabywearing.com/2009/12/blog-bid-hope.html?showComment=1260210669546#c4613139316068002991' title=''/><author><name>Kalee</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12746233349847124744</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='16798574679786434091'/><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='20' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_MTnXiDyCxjE/SrOEg_Y51BI/AAAAAAAAA_M/Dxrfyo9H44g/S220/DSC03238.JPG'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.adventuresinbabywearing.com/2009/12/blog-bid-hope.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20266288.post-2732169782358333576' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20266288/posts/default/2732169782358333576' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-1205979852'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20266288.post-3960846594280058184</id><published>2009-12-07T11:44:45.518-06:00</published><updated>2009-12-07T11:44:45.518-06:00</updated><title type='text'>i&amp;#39;ve loved seeing this community rally around ...</title><content type='html'>i&amp;#39;ve loved seeing this community rally around anissa and her family.  i look forward to the auction!</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20266288/2732169782358333576/comments/default/3960846594280058184'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20266288/2732169782358333576/comments/default/3960846594280058184'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.adventuresinbabywearing.com/2009/12/blog-bid-hope.html?showComment=1260207885518#c3960846594280058184' title=''/><author><name>~love</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04989587338864674079</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='30' src='http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w313/lovepalm21/blogsmiling.jpg'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.adventuresinbabywearing.com/2009/12/blog-bid-hope.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20266288.post-2732169782358333576' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20266288/posts/default/2732169782358333576' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-1033157068'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20266288.post-1813368640507155598</id><published>2009-12-07T10:52:05.844-06:00</published><updated>2009-12-07T10:52:05.844-06:00</updated><title type='text'>I have chills from reading this, Steph.  As a baby...</title><content type='html'>I have chills from reading this, Steph.  As a babywearing, blogging, young (relatively anyway) mother of three young children myself, this hits home.  As an estate planning attorney who spends most of every day helping other young families legally state their medical wishes and appoint someone to speak on their behalf should they become unable to do so themselves, legally name guardians for their children, and helping families pass on what really matters most, more than just money, this hits office.  I would also like to help if I can.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, if any of your readers are Massachusetts residents (anywhere in MA) interested in learning how they can help *legally* protect their families, they can &lt;b&gt;call my office at (781) 740-0848 and ask to speak with my Client Liaison, Astrid, to schedule a Peace of Mind Planning Session with me&lt;/b&gt;.  If they mention this blog post and comment, we will completely waive the normal fee for that two hour working meeting.  They will be under no obligation to move forward with me at all and I promise that they will leave that meeting having gained a great education about their individual circumstances, some options, and information about what the next steps are to take.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In addition, if they mention this blog post and comment and they do decide to move forward planning with me, in the spirit of the holidays and because I know how critically important it is to just get this stuff done to protect our families, I will offer them $500 off the flat rate fee of whatever plan rate they choose.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can also help them to seek an unbiased evaluation of their current life insurance needs and coverage through one of my trusted advisors to ensure that their families are not left struggling financially mid-crisis should anything ever happen to them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And for those readers who are not in MA, you can find a lawyer who practices in a similar manner to me here: http://personalfamilylawyer.com/lawyers/find.php&lt;br /&gt;And you can name legal guardians for your children online right now at: http://kidsprotectionplan.com/&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My heart goes out to these and all the other families so affected.  My thoughts and best wishes are with them and their extended families and friends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sincerely,&lt;br /&gt;Danielle</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20266288/2732169782358333576/comments/default/1813368640507155598'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20266288/2732169782358333576/comments/default/1813368640507155598'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.adventuresinbabywearing.com/2009/12/blog-bid-hope.html?showComment=1260204725844#c1813368640507155598' title=''/><author><name>Danielle G.
