Fab Find Friday and Flash 55


It is my honor today to be the featured blogger on Mrs. M's blog I've Changed My Name To Mommy. She has a feature called Fab Find Friday and she seems to think I am fab. I am totally surprised and thrilled to say the least. Go peruse her great blog, which I have been following for awhile now...and stop and read my interview.... thanks again Mrs. M. xx

***************************************



Flash 55

Children, two
Daughters both.

Beautiful girls,
Biased? Nope!

Different people
Like night and day.

Have they been challenges
Each in their own way.

Growing up
Incredibly fast.

How long can I hope
Being a mommy can last.

Forever, I know
Because even at my age.

I often go to my mom
For wisdom and sage.


What can you say in 55 words, give it a try and go see G-man  at Mr. KnowItAll for more.

That was a great interview! I always wondered how your URL was linked to your Blog title. And thus it is all explained. I think my mother had the same agreement with me over cats and litter boxes. It lasted about 6 minutes. But get pregnant and BAM! Nobody will let you touch a litterbox. It is sheer bliss, actually. Although far preferable to picking up steaming piles of dog poo with nothing but a flimsy Kroger bag separating your flesh from his poo.

Also?? I'm really honored to be in your blog roll (because when you told people to go look, I had to check it out). My ego just got a little bigger, so thanks for that. My husband will send you his letter of complaint later.

There's nothing quite like mothering a daughter- it has made me see my own mother through different lenses altogether!

Well done. I love this one!

It's true that you never stop being a mom. It gets easier but you never let go of them. Thankfully, they never let go of us either!

I don't get they hype with Avatar either. Maybe you should have started doing shots BEFORE the movie ;)
