I've been thinking about what to do with the "Mom & Me" blog. Should it go away or should I do something else with it? I've rolled this around for the month since Mom died and figure we'll keep it up.
With changes...
Blogging about my Mother would be a bit maudlin (look it up...it's a GREAT WORD) but blogging about your Mom would be fun and a way to help you celebrate your relationship with your mother and mothers everywhere.
So, here's the deal: Send me your thoughts about your Mom. The funny stuff, the stuff that you want to remember, celebrate, share and I'll do the work here. If you want to include a photo...go ahead that really helps make the story.
I know that you may or may not have the opportunity to do your own "Mom & Me" so...let me help celebrate Mom here.
So here are the (suggested) rules:
- It's gotta be your Mom....OK?;
- Be nice...;
- Make your story less than 300 words;
- Send a photo along, does not have to be huge...less than 1mb works great;
- Have...fun...be sincere...open up a little;
- And, share with your friends and family.
My REAL email address is [email protected] go ahead...share your Mom Story with others. I'm looking forward to the adventure.
And...so it goes!
I know this is a very important subject. Also one that most families go through at some point of their lives. It doesn't matter if your mama is in her 90's or if daddy is 50 with cancer. I will be watching for Michael posts to see what everyone has to say.
Remember folks, what you might have to say on the subject of old people when you are young might not be how you feel when you are the one in the later years of life.

I'm really looking forward to meeting the family of folks I know and those whom I don't yet know. I am hoping this is a positive way to call attention to some important issues but also celebrate the "Mom Factor". Thanks for reading and for the commment!!!!
