I am retired and my life is very quite compared to your busy household.

Living in a large city with a granny cart etc. (although our kids do have their own rooms), my two are 19 & 17 and we live with the combo of gifted/special needs so many of your posts resonate with me.<br /><br />I've left comments before and having just skimmed neighbours laughed as I too recognize that challenge/opportunity of living life with everyone watching.Missus Wookiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11110080333983480503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9027396262323848722.post-52770725802568741672011-07-05T21:48:30.159-04:002011-07-05T21:48:30.159-04:00Hi Julia, I'm a longtime Daily Guideposts read...Hi Julia, I'm a longtime Daily Guideposts reader, and as my children are 14, 12, and 10, your devotionals and Andrew's have always resonated with me. Did I find out about your blog from your bio there? Now I can't remember. I live in Atlanta but spent nine years in CT/Boston and enjoy reading about life in NYC. Mostly I enjoy when you share the lessons you've learned about parenting. You inspire me to be intentional and to follow through with whatever I'm trying to teach my kids. Thanks for writing your blog.Floridanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9027396262323848722.post-8125818574958666042011-07-03T15:14:16.262-04:002011-07-03T15:14:16.262-04:00Julia, I've been following you in Guideposts s...Julia, I've been following you in Guideposts since you first started contributing. About 6 months ago I found this blog. I'm so happy that I did! Many times after reading a post about parenting I have wished I had read it when my children were still young! I am, however, a preschool teacher so your parenting observations are still good food for thought. I live in suburban NE Florida and on first reading the devotions that you and Andrew wrote I was fascinated at the idea of raising a family in an apartment in NYC! I still am! I hope someday to visit your city and spend time seeing all the different neighborhoods as well as the traditional tourist sights. I have two grown children and my son also suffers with mental illness, so I know your pain at the loss of "normality", and the frustrations of trying to help. I deeply appreciate your posts about that and frequently cry along with you. Thanks for sharing with us. I love both your insight and the way you communicate that insight. Know that I am one more who is praying for your family.Annenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9027396262323848722.post-36631443184394928072011-07-02T21:15:37.866-04:002011-07-02T21:15:37.866-04:00How little do you know about me?How little do you know about me?Magpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15460136246441367993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9027396262323848722.post-29691413829288019542011-07-02T09:04:55.591-04:002011-07-02T09:04:55.591-04:00Thanks for the invite.

So I sometimes feel I've actually visited New York when I read about your life as city dwellers. I met your husband at a writer's conference in Kansas City, and he introduced me to your blog. I'm so glad about that.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13468739060833080407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9027396262323848722.post-63410687819108237672011-07-01T19:41:16.537-04:002011-07-01T19:41:16.537-04:00Julia, I have been reading Guideposts for years.
I...Julia, I have been reading Guideposts for years.<br />I feel I know you and Andrew from your sharing there. I enjoy this blog. I found it after you mentioned it at the Guideposts site. Often I don't<br />feel I have a right to comment. I don't have children of my own. I am a retired nurse in a small rural area of Wisconsin. I have no idea what it is like living in a big city. Your writing speaks to my heart as your write of<br />your family and share your days with us. I keep you all in prayer. MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09581172313607502394noreply@blogger.com
