Oh so fashionably late…

March 6, 2007 By Melanie Edwards 13 Comments

The party started on Friday and I’m just now arriving!

You don’t know what I’m talking about? You don’t know about the blog party 5 Minutes for Mom is hosting? Well go on over and read all about it.

For those of you arriving here from the party, WELCOME! I’ll try to be a gracious hostess.

You can read a little about me here and find out just what exactly the name NtycnBoricua is all about.

I often write about our lil monkey (aka baby girl), sometimes include the husband, and mostly just ramble on about motherhood, parenting, and my goal of working from home and becoming a WAHM.

I do hope you enjoy your stay and hopefully you’ll come back often! Enjoy the party!
