He’s still working on the store part of it, but until then there’s plenty to look at. I’ll be posting as often as I can (a little difficult with an 11 month old!) with all kinds of thoughts, observations and links to natural living. You can also subcribe to the RSS/Atom feeds if you’re into that sort of thing. I’ve also got comments enabled on most posts, so I want to hear from each and every one of you. I know there is a community of natural moms and dads here in K-town, and I want this to be a place you can come and hang out with like-minded people. So stick around, take a look and stay in touch. The store is coming soon with all kinds of hand-made goodies from moms right here in East Tennessee, not to mention great deals on cloth diapers and accessories. Hope to hear from you soon!
