Dear John (C, and for anyone else who wants an explanation)

Here's why I'm upset/angry: someone posted to my husband about their past together and wussed out at the last minute and signed it "an old friend". To a woman that post sounds like an ex-girlfriend trying to stir up trouble and when we asked this person to identify themselves they refused. Then I'm told in a different comment that there are Polish translators on the internet if I ever want to know the meaning of a word or if I ever want to learn the language. That comment, combined with the two exclamation points used to close off that sentence totally ticked me off. Where I come from, you don't speak another language in front of someone who doesn't understand it because it's rude, and it should go the same for writing it. As I said before this is my baby's webpage and I should be able to understand every word that is written on it. It was this comment that I was responding to, not any others. I hope you, and anyone else who didn't get it, now understand where I'm coming from. If the original poster's intentions have been misunderstood then he/she can explain themselves if they'd like, but if their intent was to cause problems, well look what's happened. My blog has been turned into a soap opera.

We now return to the light-hearted musings about the antics of Baby Shmear...

  • Thank you so much for your sweet email about Emery. My family loves to check out Matthew's site to see what trouble he has been into. He has the cutest expressions with those piercing blue eyes. Your husband's captions have made me spew my drink onto my monitor because they are SO funny! Thanks to both of you for some comic relief.

  • You are correct, the original posting was greatly misunderstood,
    only warm wishes was intended, and congratulations!

    old friend isn't an ex-girlfriend, I don't think so...

    This site is your son's, hence: the anonymity, why take away from the focus:

    -- when you're trying to give a compliment about you're kid, it leads to being dumped on!

    Your kid is the focus of this show! You will not hear from old friend anymore. Almost poetic.
    Chow.
