Dear Lady I Met at the Schnucks Deli Counter the Other Day:
You delighted me by telling me you follow my blog. That’s the first time I’ve had the pleasure of hearing that from a stranger. You further delighted me by saying you recognized me by my glasses. (I assumed my hair was my trademark — guess I need to rethink that.)
Here’s the thing: I was so fuzzed up with stunned happiness that I think I forgot to say thank you. And now I’m mortified by my lapse of manners.
So thanks, Deli Counter Lady! Thank you for following and reading my blog when you must be very busy with your sweet baby girl. Thank you for speaking up. Thank you for making me feel great and causing my husband to give me a high-five.
And one question, since I’m terribly curious: How did you find my blog?
Thanks again,
H
Heidi, great news! I love your blog, though I’m many years removed from the early days of my Mama-Come-Lately journey. Congrats on reaching so many moms with your beautifully written, timeless messages.
Thanks, Pat! Rest assured I also value the readers I know personally.
Very cool!
