Dear Readers of HowToBeADad.com,

You may be asking yourselves, isn’t this HowToBeADad.com? Why is it now entitled HowToBeAMom.com?

Well, I’m sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I have to tell you that my husband, Charlie, and his friend, Andy Herald, are currently not on speaking terms. I know this may come as a shock to some of you (and others maybe not so much), but they have been, for some time, struggling through some personal and business issues as partners on this blog. The saddest part is that the blog is about to turn one year old this Sunday.

So, for the time being, while neither one of us are bloggers, Lizzie (Andy’s wife) and I have decided take over for them and continue the conversion of “HowToBeADad.” Please know we are not trying to replace what Charlie and Andy do. That’s impossible. We’re simply hoping to be able to keep the blog alive and give Charlie and Andy time to repair their relationship. As you can imagine a lot of blood, sweat and tears have gone into the creation of HowToBeADad.com and Lizzie and I cannot bear to see it all fade away.

I follow quite a few blogs and have so for years. I am personally invested in them. If they simply went away I would be devastated. Therefore, I would like to encourage you to post a comment below and tell Charlie and Andy what this website means to you (if anything at all). Perhaps by reading your words, they might be able to set aside their differences of opinion and work things out. Just as Obi-Wan was Princess Leia’s only hope … you are our only hope. Sorry, I couldn’t resist.

Anyway, I apologize for bringing you such sad news on a Friday, but somehow I was appointed the messenger. Yay, me.

Lastly, Charlie and Andy have decided to both to step away from the blog/Facebook/Twitter, etc., for a bit, so they will not be responding to any posts, etc. If you have any questions, I’ll be happy to answer them the best I can. My contact details are below.

Thanks for your time reading this and for all of your support this last year.

Best,

P.S. Please forgive the tacky Post-it note, but it was all we could up with quickly!
