It’s Loukia’s supposition that motherhood matches the fast paced media world. She should know, since she’s worked in communications as well as TV and radio. Loulou’s Views is the place she writes about her views on life.
If you had to sum up your blog in one sentence, what would that sentence be?
Mom of two who shares her views about parenting, life, and everything in between.
What is your ultimate goal for your blog?
I love to write. That’s why I’ve been blogging for 4 years! I don’t have an ultimate goal with my blog, except to continue doing what I’m doing, and to reach out to as many people as I can with my posts. I love the network, and the blogging community is filled with awesome people, many whom I have met at BlogHer in NYC and at Blissdom Canada in Toronto. I would love to write a book someday, perhaps a parenting book, and definitely a children’s book, which is something I’m currently working on with my mom, who is a well known Canadian artist.
What is one thing your kids do that melts your heart?
My children melt my heart every day, in a hundred different ways—when they make me crafts to bring to work with me, when they tell me they love me, and when I listen in on their little conversations. However, the one thing my children do that melts my heart SO much is when they pronounce words wrong. I don’t correct them, because it’s so darn cute! For instance, my two year old says ‘sugie’ instead of ‘sugar’. How adorable!
Sweet or Salty?
The first thing that popped into my head was Doritos, followed by chips and salsa, so I’m going to say Salty. However, I am addicted to chocolate, too. I guess I’m a Sweet-Salty kind of girl!

Very cute! I’m finding I love to write too… what were we thinking when we were kids? Maybe it was because we had assigned topics?

I love that you don’t correct your kids when they say something wrong. I was the same way with my oldest because I just thought it was the sweetest thing ever! My husband would always correct her and I told him, just let it be, she’ll figure it out and it’s SO stinkin’ adorable!
I am also a Salty queen. Give me some Salt and Vinegar chips over a piece of cake any day!
Congrats on your SITS feature! I’m heading to some of your favorite posts now!

Good morning, ladies! More snow got dumped on us last night, so it looks like the Babby and I will be snowbound. Luckily my husband is taking care of the snow. I was not looking forward to another day of shoveling. Seriously, I’ve done it all recently! (Just because he was at work, of course).
