Everything Mom

April 20, 2011

Dear Friends,

I wrote an article for a site called Everything Mom (a great place for all things motherhood-soul stories, resources, menu planning, free printables and much more.)

Here is how the article starts…

I was a drinking mother. Today I’m a sober mother….

You can read the rest over at Everything Mom, if you’d like.

Thank you. I hope your day is GOOD.

I commented there, but I have to comment here, too! WOW! That made me cry and nod my head and wish that we could have lunch together or a playdate or something! What an amazing blessing you are!?!

I too want to salute your honesty and vulnerability.

I am new here. I first found you from a link on the Run a Muck to your “Please” post. And I’ve been visiting ever since.

I recently came out of my own cave of denial, and though it wasn’t with alcoholism, the journey is much the same. I too have learned I can’t do it alone and that it’s all okay. I hope what you have written ripples out and out and that it would free other women to come out of their caves too.
