We have a lot of exciting things coming your way in 2012. We have a remarkable new direction in our book (wine lovers stay tuned). Of course, we will keep posting our Anti-Chicken Fingers Movement recipes twice each week. Our MomAhas! on Facebook and Twitter will keep you filled in on mommy tips- helpful and sometimes a bit sarcastic. And be sure to look out for a MomAha! app for your phone in late Spring/early Summer. Of course, we will be reporting to you monthly on our donations to Children’sMiracle Network Hospitals and National Children’s Advocacy Center. All this in addition to our stories of mommyhood!
In this new year, we want to be the voice of real moms…not just through our own experiences which we know you relate to; but through your experiences-battles and triumphs included! Trina and I are excited to announce we will be regularly posting stories from featured guest bloggers. So when Heather Von St. James contacted us with her inspiring story a few days ago, we couldn’t wait any longer to get moving on this!
When her daughter Lily was just 3 ½ months old, Heather was diagnosed with Mesothelioma; a type of cancer that kills 90-95% of those who have it. Today, six years later, she is cancer free and sharing her courageous story with other moms. She is a source of hope and inspiration to Trina and I-we know you will gain something from her story, along with a few laughs from this witty Minnesota mom.
Please check out Heather’s blog, and sign up to follow our blog to be one of the first to know when she posts on ours (also, we will donate $1 per new blog follower to the charities we support)! If you have a story or experience to share with our readers, please e-mail us (see contact page).
Happy New Year, Mommies!
