My journalism roots are calling to me. I understand quite fully that MY own life -- two kids, one husband, a house, visits to the gym and laundry -- may not be of profound interest. But, as I've said many times, write I must.
I find that many manner of topics draw my interest, as well as the input of others on said topics. So if you're reading this, and you're a friend of mine, I hope you won't mind when I ask for your input on "an article I'm writing." YES, that means published; NO, it doesn't mean in the New York Times (it just means here on my blog on the Internet for anyone to see); YES, I'm serious; NO, I won't be offended if you'd rather not be "quoted." But when I ask -- and I will ask -- just answer and do so truthfully if you'd like. After all, a writer is only as good as his/her sources.
I know that you didn't ask for a response here however I really do enjoy reading your blog, if for nothing other than to get a view of a "stay-at-home" mom's daily life. It amazes me that over the last few years (mainly because of you) my views about the choice to stay and work at home vs. working outside of the home has changed drastically. Of course I know there are THOSE moms, whether at home or not, who put themselves before anyone else and give MOTHERHOOD in general a bad name.
