Posts you liked the most in 2013!
http://www.sandinmytoes.tk/2013/12/posts-you-liked-most-in-2013.html
It's almost 2014 (really?), and I decided to put together a list of the posts that were most read this year. Sand In My Toes will complete a year next month, and I didn't expect to even get the number of readers I did! It's been a pleasant surprise to see how many people actually read and commented on my posts. I've divided the top posts into the main subjects I write on, instead of making a mixed list. If you're new here, or haven't seen much of my blog, this will give you a good idea of what my blog is about!

- Thankful for being a mother - I described my feelings of being lucky to be a mother, despite all the hard work that goes into it.
- Whatever your choice, you're a hard-working mom - I think mothers shouldn't be divided into two camps based on whether they work at home or outside. We're all doing the best we can for our families.
