I've started like a million blogs in the past nine years. No, really. A million. I write one or two posts and then become totally consumed by the mayhem of my made-for -tv life that I forget all about them. It's a shame because I have so much humor and encouragement to share with the world. So I've decided to recommit myself and begin again. It's never too late to start anew, right?
I've decided to title this blog "Good Luck, Sage." For those of you who have children old enough to appreciate (and understand) something other than Sesame Street or Caillou, you've probably watched an episode or two of "Good Luck, Charlie" on the Disney Channel. The show revolves around a family trying to adjust to the birth of forth child, Charlotte (Charlie). In each episode, older sister, Teddy, creates a video diary entry containing advice for Charlie about their family and life as a teenager. Each episode ends with a member of the family exclaiming, "Good luck, Charlie!"
I thought it would be totally awesome to do something similar for my darling daughter...in print. So, like most things in my life, this blog is dedicated to Sage. I'll write about my own experiences in an effort to inform and enhance hers. Maybe she'll read this blog one day and realize that I'm much more than an evil troll who makes her do homework and go to bed before it's dark outside. Maybe she'll read about my life and see that I'm good at things other than reading bedtime stories really, really fast and baking stellar sweets. Hopefully, she'll read it and be reminded that of all the things I have to be proud of, she tops the list.
Good Luck, Sage!
