Vote for me, or just send chocolate

In case you hadn't noticed, there is a rather large (some might say obnoxiously large) new button to the right. I'm a contender for Sexiest Mom Alive Best Parenting Blog over at Nickelodeon Parents Connect. Out of 50 nominees, I'm the only one who blogs about a kid with special needs, which is disappointing. I mean, I'm grateful and honored, but I wish there were better representation of the special needs community, there are so many great blogs out there.

I love this blog, and I take pride in it. I don't do it for money (THAT'S for sure) or fame, although several people have lately referred to me as Purple Max's mom. I do it because I want to inspire and inform, and in return be inspired and informed by you. I do it because it's cathartic. Most of all, I do it because Max rocks, and I want the world to know.

The nominations are open till June 17, and you can vote here or by clicking on the button, then just scroll down to Max's happy face. The person with the most votes makes it to the finals. You have to register to cast your vote, and you can vote daily (I know, like you have nothing better to do).

Some very popular blogs are in the running, so I'll probably get squashed, but thanks for your support! If you don't vote, no worries, I will still love you though my mom might be mad at you.
