My word it's hard work so...She's beautiful. My word it's hard work sometimes though! Support structures, oh hell yes (was married to emotionally abusive man, now a single mother, crikey support structures can make so, so, so much of a difference.... or lack thereof.)<br /><br />I write at Mothers for Women's Lib, but I don't really consider myself a feminist. For, I think, similar reasons to you (I read your earlier blog posts about "spoiling feminism" etc.) Certainly I don't call myself a "feminist mum".<br /><br /><i>It's hard for me to figure out how to write about this whole motherhood gig, because I'm pretty much convinced that the stuff I can't turn into some kind of political rant or interesting bit of introspection about the nature of my personal reality will be boring to the entire rest of the universe so why write it?</i><br /><br />Yes - this is why I have two blogs, an invite only "traditional" mummy blog (all about my child), and my main blog where I am a lot more ranty. Oh and a few other blogs too. Spreading myself about. Too thinly, probably. Ah well.<br /><br />I like reading about Little Foot. :-)Rosemary Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12204378986946967049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4427538608110635294.post-61967386431713615642009-12-01T18:53:21.131-05:002009-12-01T18:53:21.131-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.mamacrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16484565827023574347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4427538608110635294.post-23382678811621555302009-12-01T18:50:48.098-05:002009-12-01T18:50:48.098-05:00oh my gosh she is the CUTEST THING EVER!!!!

...she is so CUTE! *squeals and goes into babymode*<br /><br />ahem. Really. Don't know where that came from. :D<br /><br />And I'm completely tickled pink that she likes the lion. That's just wonderful, and makes me warm and fuzzy.

Once upon a time, long time ago, this was in place, before families started spreading out,and grandparents, aunts and uncles, etc, all lived in the same area, or house, even.<br /><br />"I know that nobody escapes childhood unscathed, but I pray every day that she escapes it unmaimed."<br />This is the essence of every prayer I've ever prayed for my children, no matter how old. <br /><br />Little Foot's adorable, and never argue with a baby if they're happy to see you, even if you don't think you deserve such adoration.Rootietoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06804816032287310463noreply@blogger.com
