Welcome!

For those visiting over here for the first time, 
Welcome to my blog!

Ultimate Blog Party 2010

My name is Kathryn and I have two kids (6 and 2).  I love staying at home with them which keeps me busy, and I homeschool my oldest.  I am married to my high school sweetheart, and while we have definitely had our ups and downs, I love him more today than the day we got married.  (you can find out more about me on my profile, or read below on my last post.)

I am going to turn 30 this week!!!  
 (For those of you that DO know me, yes... I do make cakes www.mybellasweets.blogspot.com, but no- I didn't make this one)

I decided that I wanted to do something for OTHERS for my birthday.  
I am going to do 30 random acts of kindness on my birthday: Here's my blogpost about it.

In honor of my 30th birthday, 
I would love for YOU to do a random act of kindness too! 
1st annual Happy Day
April 16th, 2010

Then let me know about it.  Leave a comment or blog about it, email me...whatever.  I would love to be able to include all the other kind acts in the "Happy Day" blogpost in addition to my day's events.  That would be awesome.  That would be one big great "Happy Day"!  Can't wait to hear from everyone.  


Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great blog-party-week!  Kathryn

Hi Kathryn! Welcome to UBP 2010! I JUST saw your link and thought I'd come say Hi! Oh, and Happy birthday! Wanna hear something funny? I just read about a woman who did 38 RAOK's for her birthday, yesterday...and all day today my hubby and I discussed doing this for my 40th this July!! Who knew I could look forward to turning the 4-0? I will follow your blog so I can be reminded of when you do your RAOK's and I can do one on your special day! Happy Birthday, I hope it is amazing and blessed!! Will you take pics? That would be nice too!

Happy early Birthday! Stopping by from the UBP! I admire any mom who has the patience to homeschool. I only homeschool for preschool and that's enough for me!
