Wow.

Makes me feel guilty for sitting here sometimes wallowing in self pity over the everyday little struggles of keeping up with laundry, work and kids. Stories like that can sure put a life in perspective.

I know what you mean, Amy. It was brave of her to share her story, even now. I found her mother’s comment especially poignant.

That was an amazing, touching article. I came out when I was 25 and sometimes it seems like I missed out on a lot when I’m around people who came out in their teens. I can’t imagine waiting a lifetime to finally reveal my true self. Bless her. Thanks for posting that, Zoot.

Hi. I’m Kim.

This is my blog that I've been writing on since January, 2004. I call myself Zoot as it's a derivative of an old childhood nickname. I used to write about my struggles to have children, but eventually I succeeded and now, I write a lot about those kids. I don't use my kid's exact names simply because if someone Googles their very unique names in the future, I don't want them stumbling upon my entries about boobsweat. I mean, would you hire someone whose Mom writes openly about such topics? NO. YOU WOULD NOT.

I love taking pictures and carry my camera (almost) everywhere I go. This means you'll see a lot of photos on this site. I also periodically post recipes I like as I've been slowly (but surely) learning to cook and I like to share my discoveries. Finally? I'm an annoying pop culture fanatic so I'll periodically ramble about Hunger Games or the latest Parks and Recreation.

I hope you like it here. If not? Please don't tell me. I cry easily.
