small world

or big family?

i say big family

i guess you can say i am part of the blogger generation. you may think my creativity stems from my own head or maybe a close network of girlfriends. but it's actually a little more anonymous than that.

i've been following a few blogs and flickr accounts of some amazing women, who also happen to be mothers, they craft out of everything, for everyone and share pictures! a few of the women just happen to be in portland and as small as portland can seem, it is relatively big between circles of people or neighborhoods, etc. so i never really expected to cross paths with any of the women i quietly follow (yes i make comments now and then to not be a total spy) but i happened across a photo title "fish fry", do you know where i'm going with this? well anyways, being excited about a possible crossover, i commented on her photo since just the week before my sister, thom and isabella attended a fish fry at Holy Redeemer, where the mcpheeters boys go to school. and what do you know, aidan happens to be one of her son's favorites in preK. so no more anonynimity, and for that i can be releived


so aidan, if one of the mothers in your preK tells you she met your cousin, this is what she means


what are your small world/big family stories?

i know there must be a few and i'm sure we would all love to hear about them and have some action and lively discussion on here :)
