It's their prerogative to click that little X in the upper right hand corner (or if you're on a Mac like me, the red X in the upper left). It's not rocket science. If you don't like something, don't read it. But why do people find it necessary to be rude? That's the part I just don't get.<br /><br />I love you, I love your kids, and I love your humble bragging.

You love them and as you say.. they are yours and you are raising them to be smart, thinking, intelligent human beings while too many are not involved with their children and those, too often, have not learned to think. You encourage that and that in itself is awesome. My four are older than your two, but I like to read your blog because it reminds me of those days. Mine still come home when they can, a couple more than the other two, because they can. Yours will too... because you loved them and taught them to think..

I also helps me on a bad day to remember the good my child is.

I brag about my kids too whenever possible and I don't apologize for it anymore than you do. I agree that home should be a safe harbor and I've had that very discussion with my husband. Because it should be a safe harbor for us as parents too. And our home? Is often not a safe harbor (a place of rest and rejuvenation) for me and my husband.<br /><br />When you (and everyone else) read posts about people complaining about their kids and such though, I beg you to consider that some of us are struggling mightily with special needs kiddos and are truly convinced we are getting it all completely wrong. Some days it feels like I'm living a nightmare and the only way to convince myself that I am awake is to say out-loud, maybe on social media to friends or in my private journal, that I am tired and being a mom to a child with these needs has sapped every bit of my being out of me. I'm not complaining because it's a trend. I'm venting and looking for validation. I do try to put most of it in my private journal these days though because I'm fairly confident that most people in my life, are sick of hearing me. I know I need to focus on my blessings but truly, that is so very hard these days.

I mean, you have the right to post about blue elephants all day long if you want, and if you don't want to read about blue elephants, then don't read! For goodness sake, why do people find it so confoundingly necessary to TELL you that 1) Your blog doesn't live up to their expectations and 2) They are going to stop reading it. I mean do they think that they are so all fired important that you will immediately fall on your knees and beg forgiveness and swear to never brag on them again? What unhappiness is in that person's life that they feel they have to tell you so self-righteously that they are no longer going to read your blog. I mean, read or don't read, just move along if you don't like it.
