So it has been a couple of days since I have last posted a blog and I will tell you why. Josh read my last entry about Marley and her sudden mood swings and accused me of being too harsh. Can you believe it?
''It's satire," I argued.
"I can't believe you'd post this about our daughter," he countered.
At first I was insulted, but not wanting to be one who brushes personal criticism aside, I took a couple of days to do some soul searching. Was I indeed coming down too harshly, or could the entry be taken for what it really is, a joking commentary on the trials and tribulations of raising a sassy little toddler. I know my sense of humor can be a little harsh but I like to look at that as being sharp. (...but maybe being sharp tongued is different from being sharp...hmm...) I like to believe that Mars knows exactly how I feel about her. She is the light of my world and my purpose in life. I try to take her feelings and wants into consideration before any decision I make. She has changed my life completely for the better and I am a better person because of her. I could go on extolling her virtues much much longer, but I won't. i hope that i have cleared the air, and will continue on with my witty realistic life commentaries on another day.

I thought it was satire at its very finest. It must be a mother thing...
