I got some great feedback after my last post entitled Battery Induced Sleep when I shared that Super Pooper only napped well in the swing or bouncy seat. One mom said that she’d “been there, done that,” while one dad asked where he could get a bouncy seat in his size! A fellow mommy blogger even shared her experience and recommended that I use a pillow so Super Pooper doesn’t get a flat spot on her head from sleeping in the same position too long. Frankly, that never occurred to me, so I really appreciated the tip! But it was my mom’s feedback that brought everything full circle. One of those moments when I realized that what goes around, comes around. Or in this case, what goes backward, comes forward. (My attempt at a swing metaphor, forgive me.) That said, my mom reminded me that I too used to spend a lot of time in the swing.
(Yes, that’s me sunbathing topless.) However, I suspect I was in the swing a bit less because they didn’t have battery operated ones back then. You had to keep winding those suckers! Anyway, like mother, like daughter. So, thank you mom for pointing out that I turned out okay (well, at least without any neck issues) and thank you to those who give me feedback on my blog. It’s nice to know that people besides my parents are actually reading it!

Oh, good Lord, what an adorable picture of you - nekkid - thank goodness for battery-induced sleep; otherwise, my children (and I) would have NEVER slept, at all!
