Always trying to make sure that the single parent community is represented by a strong, positive voice, I was featured in New York City’s Daily News newspaper today as the single mom blogger in a feature about Moms who blog!
One of the things that is very important to me as a blogger alongside making new friends (married, single, parents, childless - doesn't matter), is that I get the word out about the immense joys and particular challenges single parents face, and the necessity of the inclusion of single parents into the larger parenting community as a whole. I am here to support single parents, first and foremost, but I also want to ensure that the single parent image gets a positive overhaul. Why? Because single parents rock! And advertisers, marketers, and society at large should know that.
Feel free to check out the article here.
Cool, huh? :-)

I'm so happy for you! You deserve so much recognition for how you portray being a single mom. There were times when I'd be feeling down about my situation and I'd come here and you would say something with your usual positivity (even if you were going through a tough time) and it would give me the inspiration to feel better. I don't really comment, but I just wanted to say thank you for being here for us!
Yeah I don't comment either but congrats. You deserve the recognition. Reading your blog has been comforting to me the past few months as a new single mom so thank you.
Yeah for you! Single moms rock and I'm glad your able to show that and be recognized for it.

Way to represent!
I was going to send you an email about something else. I happened to be on the train yesterday and someone had left behind the daily news. I don't know what made me pick it up the paper since I never read the daily news but so glad I did as I saw article.
It was wonderful piece and of course I recognized the photo. Congrats on the recognition.
