Going Public

Up till now, our blog has been private, by invitation only, requiring readers to log in before they could view our blog. This has been because we're super paranoid people and fear kidnappers and identity theft.

However, I absolutely love reading other people's blogs. Often, when the baby is napping, I'll surf the internet, reading blogs of people I barely know or sometimes don't know at all. (I read the blogs of people I know too, they just don't always have new posts, causing me to link to their friends' and families' blogs instead.)

I get such joy out of seeing pictures of old acquaintances and their new families, that I feel that I have been selfish in hiding our blog. I mean, what if everyone hid their blog? Then whose would I read? So, as a thank you to all those people (who will probably never read this), I've decided to make our blog public as well.

So, if you're a kidnapper -- I know our baby is super cute, but we'd really like to keep him. If you could please kidnap someone else's baby instead, we'd greatly appreciate that. (Although, if you are a kidnapper, I strongly recommend giving up the practice completely. I don't think it's gonna help you get into heaven. Or stay out of prison here either.)
