Life, As She Knows It

When I started blogging, it seemed like there were only a handful of sites and writers out there, a very small community of moms who brought their lives and experiences to the web in an attempt to cope and connect.

Very quickly I realized how vast this virtual world really is, and how much talent and wisdom is only a few keystrokes away.

I’ve been uplifted, comforted, amused, touched, stricken and angered by so many of you, for you, with you and on your behalf. I admire all of you.

But the rules are, every month I have to choose just one.

Just one Perfect Post that spoke to me during the last 30 days, more than any other. This month, I chose to honor Life As I Know It for her post, In Search Of Peace (And Quiet).

This hilarious post about the writer’s mother’s attempt to get just an hour or two of solitude by fleeing to the public library made me laugh out loud, and made me think about how much more I understand my own mom’s actions now.

I now know why my mom used to reply to our persistent question of “where are you going” with a slightly hysterical laugh and the phrase, “Crazy, wanna come?”

Please, go read Life As I know It, and her February Perfect Post. You won’t be disappointed, and I have a feeling you’ll be back for more.
