y things that have inspired this blog to begin, I think most of all my two sisters. They both have a blog which I enjoy reading so much. Not only are they brilliant writers (which they get from my Dad, and I could only hope for that gene) but almost without fail I am brought to tears when I read their accounts of what their lives are about. For the past month I have thought of so many great titles of things that I should write about, but not until today have I actually followed thru.About the name: Well the name of my blog is inspired by my little boy Sydney James Young. One day I noticed that I am constantly calling him "little guy". Why is that, well basically because he is anything but a little guy. Just barely 6 months old, and weighing in at a whopping 24lbs. I LOVE HIM!!! All of him!
Anyway, one day I tested his nickname out on my good friend Amy. Recently she pointed out to me how I went about testing his new nickname. Apparently (and yes Katie, this is probably followed by some sort of bad news) I walked over to her house one day, which is just next door thank goodness, and out of no where called little Sydney "LG". I guess I must have looked at her like "so...check out his new nickname. What do you think? Does it work?" Well, I think it works. Amy didn't criticize me, she just laughed, which is often her response to everything. So it stuck.
About us: Long story short...We live in my Dad's basement. Does that tell you enough? No really though. I have recently changed jobs to something much more difficult, but much more rewarding in almost every way. I am now a full time mom!
Until October of 2007 I had been fortunate enough to work consistently in Theatre. I had worked as a Stage Manager, but mostly as a Company Manager for Broadway Touring shows. I traveled both Nationally and Internationally for 8 years, not counting my travels during college. I loved my job! I enjoy traveling so much, I enjoy my line of work, and for all but about a year and a half total of that time, I was able to work and travel with my husband, which I LOVED so much! Last October I completed a tour of BLAST in Japan, and since that time I have not worked. Well I use the term "worked" very loosely.
I married TJ Young on September 9, 2000. He is an amazing, talented, compassionate, handsome and hard working man. I love him with all my heart!
On February 12, 2008 I gave birth to our little boy Sydney James Young, whom is named after my late mother and my husband.
On September 1, 2008 I finally posted this blog which I actually started writing about a month ago. Oops! Guess I am not going to be as on top of it as I would like to.
That is enough for now, otherwise it will never get posted. Here is to blogging! I look forward to this new outlet of expressing my feelings.
Until next time.
