Name Change

As you can see, i've changed my blog name. When all my friends started blogs I wanted to jump on the bandwagon, of course I wanted a catchy blog name. But i've come to realize that I want to be more "real". That if i'm going to blog about "my" life then it's going to be the "fun" and "crappy". That is who I am for better or worse~love me or hate me :) So now to explain how my new name came to be....a long time ago I read this book called "Mothering without a map". The title drew me to it, like the smell of coffee brewing on a very tired morning. Here is a little exerpt to help you undersand why I like it so much.....
"Every woman longs to be a good mother. But what about women who grew up feeling "under-mothered"-whose mothers were absent, distracted, distant, depressed, well meaning but inept, or otherwise fell short in some vital way? How are they to become the good mothers they aspire to be?"
How can I become the good mother that I aspire to be.....that is a question I ask myself often and hope to find the answer too. I invite you, my friends, family, and people I hold dear to join me on this journey of Mothering without a map.
