My first print article came out in a local magazine this week, which was super exciting (of course, I found a typo in it which drives me NUTS!). It was an article about keeping pets safe in winter, and the feature photo was a little striped cat. Regular readers and friends will know that Joey's favorite stuffed animal was a stripey kitten. The irony of that being the photo on my first real freelance article does not escape me. Without Joey, I wouldn't be writing,
Here's what I wrote:
- This list of depression fighting tips after doing a bit of soul searching.
- I talked about the problems with the family bed.
- I talked about how sometimes I feel like my mothering is just one long epic fail.
- I invited another mama to share her grief story of losing her daughter to cancer.
Stuff I loved from other bloggers:
- This from Brenna at Suburban Snapshots. We're all doing it, the best we know how.
- This ode to best friends at In the Powder Room.
- These amazing gift guides put together by the savvy and smart Anna of My Life and Kids.
- This general silliness about Thanksgiving by Kristi of Finding Ninee.
Wishing all my American readers a very Happy Thanksgiving. Have a wonderful week everyone!!
