Motherhood & Words®

"It takes courage to write about motherhood in a culture that sets women with children on the sidelines, and it takes even greater courage to give voice to the powerful emotions and fears that swirl deep beneath the surface of our daily lives..." -Kathleen Hirsch and Katrina Kenison, Mothers

mothers' words speak volumes

Check out the Star Tribune's parenting blog, Cribsheet, where I guestblogged about my Mother Words class. Writing from four of my students will appear on Cribsheet this week, one essay each day, beginning today, so please check out these wonderful, emerging voices. They make me proud!
