Laughing At, Not With, Yo Momma

Posted by Madeline Holler

It'll be years before I send text messages to my kids and a cold day in hell when I exchange them with my own mother. Not that I'm opposed to it, I just can't see it happening, what with her arthritis and the fact that she never remembers to turn on her cell phone. But we do email. So I totally get what inspired this great new blog/side project by an editor over at an SD fave blog, Jezebel.

Called Postcards From Yo Momma, it's a collective demonstration of the universal dorkiness of moms. And I know we're the cool generation of parents. But I suspect I'll fit the bill in 2022. Sigh.

Here's the mom I want to be.

Here's the mom I fear I'll be. 

You can submit your own mother's musings or just picture her when you're reading the others. I'll leave you with this:

Goji Juice 

I had a moment to google and here are just a few of the comments.  Most blogs were talking about the MLM aspect. The juice may not be a “cure all’ but it does have it’s benefits, especially for people who do not eat fruit.
 
you may have already done this, but I wanted you to know I have an open mind and am not always easily fooled.
 
I am still looking for your sock.
Love Mom
