Seize the Day!

What an incredibly daunting-and just a tad scary- a blank writing space can be! Whether it's a pristine white piece of paper or a completely empty posting box--it's enough to drive all logical, coherent thought from your head! However, true to my post's title, I have seized the day and started my blog: Mom's basket of books.

As a stay-at-home mom for the last 21 years (one newly graduated college daughter, an almost graduated high school senior daughter ready to embark on her college adventure and a 12 year old daughter and 8 year old son still needing mom's guidance and nurturing), I am ready to start an adventure of my own! Starting my own business is the answer to the question: what am I going to with the rest of my life?

My passion is being a mom to my children and books! Children's books, in particular, always draw me into a world of utter joy and happiness. Reading to my children and sharing great children's literature with them as they grow older and become independent readers is the brightest and best part of any day. How does this lead to starting a blog as well as a new business adventure: that will be my next post!
