It's about time I started a blog. I've been toying with idea for some time, but time really does seem to be the problem. Liam keeps me on my toes, no doubt about that. I work on my writing during his naps. (Almost done with the book!) And then there are the endless, ever-changing and random "things" that always come up. Yesterday I was very, very ill. (I had an infection.) Usually they're more pleasant--you know--playgrounds; picnics; libraries; softball.
It's starting to get harder to take Liam out. He has so much energy! He's something else, that kid; only 15 months old but I'd swear he's 15 some times. That boy has way too much personality to keep in such a little body so I guess it has to bubble over sometimes. Man, he's fun though.
Anyway, I guess this was less of an introduction and more in medias res. So here is the real intro:
My name is Tara Gebhardt. I'm married to an amazing, super awesome guy named Britt. He's the bee's knees. We have one child and one dog-child. Our human child was born March 4th, 2008 and as far as I'm concerned, he's the greatest creature ever created. Our dog, Mickey, is 75 pounds of pure German Shepherd trouble, but sweet. (That's how they getchya.)
I'm a children's writer. I (almost exclusively) write poetry. I'm sure much of this blog will be dedicated to Liam and my writing. I guess that's it. So long for now!
