Well, it has certainly been a couple weeks since my last post. Thanks to WordPress for recognizing a unique post of mine, and I have been steadily responding to the amazing outpouring of support. I sincerely hope that anyone who has/had the same experience would take the responses as their own and also know that they (WE) are not alone!
I will continue to respond to every comment but I just wanted to say Thank You as I continue to post in the meantime.
To my new followers, I just wanted to introduce myself. Hello, Thank you for following me! I might have already followed several of you as well. I am a mother of 2 teenagers… Of course, it is easy for any parent to lead by that statement: “I am a mother.” But my teenagers are growing quickly. I have poured my heart and soul into these boys and I’m not sure where (geographically) the future holds for them. I am also a newlywed and we have been actively trying to have a baby for over a year now. Other than that: I like to shop (too much), have a shoe-fetish, am addicted to coupons, watch football, and I love my job mainly because I get to create Excel Spreadsheets. I grew up in the suburbs on the West Coast, and now live in the suburbs on the East Coast. Like many suburban-ites, I greet my neighbors with a ‘Hello’, smile at passers-by, and take my children to sporting events. But few really know what’s behind the smile and that is why I have my blog. Hope you have a great day!
Well you definitely have a new blogger here. And you are not alone – I have had several friends go through very challenging, hard struggles where making the decision was neither easy, selfish or multi-dimensional.
How true. I am a mother. Always a leading statement for us, isn’t it. Yet when I am writing, I am more than just a mother.
Thanks for your post, your sharing and looking forward to reading more.

Thank you! Oh yes, that’s exactly how I feel, I’m not just a ‘mother’ on my blog but I often can’t help talking about ‘motherly things’ I think sometimes it just gushes out of us! Look forward to reading more from you too 🙂
Nicely said!
Got nothin’ but love for you, baby!
Thank you and where have you been? No posts lately! How was your Halloween?
It was nice! Mr. J and I went on a little vacation and Lola stayed with Kiddo. All is well. I’m just a little out of sorts and someone doesn’t want to let me out of her sight. Halloween was fun. Want some candy? We have tons. 🙂
Nice!! My older son hung out with friends and my younger son was sick so we ended up going to the store and buying our own!
