Quite how this came about I couldn't tell you. I paid no-one and I've been perhaps the laziest blogger on the circuit of late, yet somehow, somebody* decided that my lil' old post was worthy of being nominated. Low and behold with a bit of begging from myself other folk went and voted as well and here I am.
I am up against some stiff competition naturally, and my post will probably come, much like my beleaguered football team, hobbling past the post last. Shame-faced and tail between my legs I will declare the competition a fix, sulk for a month and write a post about how I'll Never Blog Again. I will block the eventually winner on twitter and have delicious, delerious dreams about them choking on their soda stream drinks.
In the interest of fair play and sports(wo)manship I'd better show you my rivals.
Baby Budgeting wrote a lovely hommage to her mum.
Metal Mummy's post is a funny if not disgusting story about poo.
The Five F's writes a very poignant and personal poem.
Dance Without Sleeping speaks out about her battle with depression.
Misssy M Misssives outs her husband in the most public of ways and to the relative of indie music royalty!
And then there is little old me. The post was originally written as an attempt to earn my position of Mummy Blogger, I figured if I was to be included in all of these charts and award thingies then I should at least attempt to write about parenting matters every now and again. So I wrote a definitive guide to parenting, in my own tongue-in-cheek style of course... with much alcohol and some swearing!
Parenting: It's as Simple as ABC
All votes will be gratefully accepted.
*whoever it was who originally voted for me is a superstar, a real gem. If I ever find out their identity I will shower them with gifts and eternal love, and maybe if they are really lucky, pour them drinks from my lovely new soda stream.
