Home Page Mama!

[Kajenloca]

Girls, this is an interactive activity for all our members! Please participate. :)

I would like to have one mom a week be the "home page Mama" where all our members visit her home page. This is in addition to the Mommy of the Week. (Please sign up for this if you haven't already had the honor!)

Check out our weekly mom's journals (responses would be nice), sign guest book, play her activities, look at pics, etc. Leave our "home page Mama" a note to let her know you visited from the Write Stuff.

Basically, this activity will help everyone get to know each other; showcasing any writing or tidbits you may have to share with the world.

Who knows, you may find a kindred spirit among us! :)

If you miss a week that's okay! You can always go back and visit someone even if it is not her "official" week.

I really hope everyone takes a moment to do this! What a great way to get to know all the members of our writing family.

Kim

Hi!

I'm so happy to have found this group of moms with the WRITE Stuff! I also belong to a  Cafemom group called Life After Divorce. I recently replied to a mom who was dealing with an icky custody situation and my reply to her seems to have inspired some other moms as well. I thought I'd share it here.....

So sorry you have to even use the word FIGHT in the context of dealing with the man who is the fahter of your child. I have this in my life too and I'm here to tell you how I deal:

Do not kid yourself, this is not merely a fight, this is war. And I treat it as such. I think of myslef as a warrior in battle, like Joan of Arc.  I don my armour whenever I know I will be in contact with him, at a hearing, in the mediator's office. I am not fierce on the outside, but a steady, calm, soldier prepared to fight for what is right for my sons. I am their protector. They need me to be strong and clear of purpose. Do I want to be in war? Do I want this to be a fight? Hell no, but this is what I have before me because the father of my children is a sick man who doesn't know it, a stupid bastard who is unable to see what truly is best for our boys. So now I think in terms of strategy, battle lines, waiting it out in the trenches when necessary with the goal of victory clear in my sights: For  my boys to be with me most of the time with limited visitation with their father. 

When I think this way it somehow takes it up a notch to where I'm not bogged down with the emotionalism of it. It keeps me from getting so angry at him. It puts me in action instead of reaction to whatever he does. Do soldiers sit around bitching about how much their ememy sucks? No. They just plan their next attact, or figure out the best way to keep covered.

Hope this helps, my warrior princess friend, and good luck.

Ooohh this would be fun, can I join in?

[MinstrelMommy]

I would also love to participate - how fun!  But I don't have a whole lot of journal posts listed, as all my creative energy is going into the fiction series I'm toiling away on.  But there is plenty of info, and there are plenty of pics, for anyone to get to know me and my family.  :-)  Well, I'm going to get to visiting now!  :-)
