JediMom Blog

‘Twas the night before BlogHer, when all through my house,
Not a thing had been packed, not even a flip flop.
Two bloggers were each crafting a new post with care,
In hopes that new BlogHer friends would soon be there.

The WordPress install was current, the plugins too,
While visions of AdSense checks danced in our heads.
And my daughter in her sweats, and I in my jeans,
Were parked on the couch typing on our laptops.

When from my youngest there arose such a cry,
Snuggle me mommy and tuck me in too!
Away to my son’s room I flew like a flash,
Saw to PJs, teeth brushing and gave a big kiss.

The light from the monitor of my MacBook
Gave the luster of mid-day to my face in the dark.
When what to my bleary eyes should appear,
But a blog post idea from Christmas lore.

With a title, some tags and a blog badge in place,
I knew without a doubt it was really time to pack.
More rapid than eagles the morning would come,
Time to round up the power cords, and bags for swag!

Now Moms! Now Bloggers! Now Daughter of Mine!
By Plane! By Car and Minivan Too!
To Chicago’s Sheraton! Near the Magnificient Mile!
Let’s Get Away! Let’s Socialize! Let’s Meet IRL!

Looking forward to meeting many of you in person and introducing my daughter.
