Oh, Megan. What a beautiful post. You have yourself to thank. For reaching out, showing up, and stepping out the door. I’m so grateful our paths have crossed and have no question that they will continue to do so. We are here for each other.

I may not be in the same place in my life as you are (yet…!), but I enjoy and am thankful for your blog. I appreciate the fact that I get to know your inner thoughts even when I don’t get to see you every year, or have yet to grow into the adult world enough to talk about these things with you as a natural “catching up” conversation. I think you and Alex are a joyful example of what I hope to find, and I brag about you to all my friends! If you think your readers have all given up, I’m still here

I will be traveling with you and if you don’t mind I think I will invite a few thousand of my closes friends to follow you as well. I have always known that in the story of women lay the power to heal the world. Let the healing begin.

Last year we had a no-gift party for our daughter. It actually worked, and to tell you the truth, I think people who came actually appreciated it. Some checked before hand to “make sure they were not going to be the only ones not bringing something” and I assured them they wouldn’t be. We just enjoyed a nice meal and homemade cake and that was that. Pretty simple.

Yes, yes, and yes. I just read American Wife, too, and I love how you’re thinking about it here.

Of course, sometimes I pretend to be asleep but in fact I have snuck out (while my husband and kids are still really sleeping) to run, or more often, read or write. There’s a little something protective, for moms, in pretending to be asleep sometimes. And that gives me the energy to be more connected and awake…

Hi Megan,
I came across your blog by visiting Mama PhD. Love your posts there. You are so right about us pretending to be asleep. I know I have to be more conscious of so many things I do.

Sweet blog. I never know what I am going to come across next. I think you should do more posting as you have some pretty intelligent stuff to say.

I’ll be watching you .
