Pop Quiz: Are You Up for a Challenge?

March has Challenged Me

March has been a wonderful, horrible, stressful, exhausting, nonstop, humbling, roller-coaster month for our family. I've been wonderfully blessed with so much support as I continue to write on Motherly Law and elsewhere. And ML continues to gain momentum in various ways. I'm excited to see what each new day brings my way as a result of all the writing and connecting I have done with ML.

I've been intending to update several posts as the laws have changed with some of the topics I have written about. I was going to write that post for today, but I really need to just drop into bed and sleep rather than stay up writing. So, I'll be updating posts on Saturday. Instead, I've come up with a ML Trivia Pop Quiz for you.

A Motherly Law Quiz

Here are some random questions regarding information from various posts. I hope you've been reading, but don't worry if you haven't or have and don't remember the answers. I have provided the answers at the bottom of this post:

1. What was the very 1^st ML post titled?
2. How many states ban the use of hand-held phones while driving?
3. In which post do I reveal the depths of my paranoia by telling you that I printed a photo list of the FBI's Most Wanted List the 1^st time I flew on an airplane after September 11^th, 2001?
4. Does the U.S. have any laws regulating naming a baby?
5. How much paid parental leave is mandatory in the U.S.?
6. Have I ever been bullied?
7. What do I always tell you to eat on Fridays in the Motherly Advice posts?
8. What new federal food safety law promises to reduce the risk of food-borne illnesses?
9. What three blog conferences have I attended?
10. Which two U.S. Reps have guest posted on ML?
11. How do I refer to my sons and husband on the blog?
12. How many months have I been writing ML?
13. On what TV station's website can you find articles written by me?

Pretty amazing "life" ML has had thus far. Enjoy your writing so much, Anna.

Glad you are getting some much-needed rest. And sleep a few extra winks for me today, I need it ;) March has been a crazy one around here, too. But it's all good!

There is definitely a reason "they" call it the Ides of March, no? Hope there is light in your tunnel, dear friend. Will be missing you especially next weekend ;)

[Anna]

Heidi,

Thanks for the support. It looks to be a long tunnel, but I have faith there will be a light at the end! Will miss not seeing you this weekend!
