Kari,

I’m loving this post and this site. I heard about you from Me Ra Koh’s blog! I don’t think of it as an old and new version, I just think of it as a natural maturation and growth… with new dimensions and changing priorities. Sort of like a distillation process. I understand what you mean though about how different we seem now as mothers than we were before. It’s an incredible journey. I am constantly awed by children in general and by my son in particular. And so grateful for the privilege of being his mother!

Kari, I am so excited for you and for ME! I live to read a comment on my blog from you! Now I get to read your posts a few times a week! Does the public know what is in store! I am serious, your writing is gold, and I can’t wait to read more. Thanks for taking the risk as a woman–for having the faith to move toward that “creative goal that shimmers”. The world is going to be much better for it. I am, every time you post or send me an email. And this means everything. I love you Kari!

Wonderful! Your mom must be so proud… By the way, I think parenting changes one for good. Although I have been an attorney for 25 years and a mother for only 16 1/2 years, my identity is so firmly tied up in being “mom” that I can’t imagine what life would have been like without my children. I could walk away from my career without much angst (if only I didn’t need a paycheck and insurance!) but never my family.
Go gettum Kari!

Welcome to the club–do you have a hair clip i can borrow?

Though I still listen to NPR. Where else would I learn random facts to impress friends and influence…well no one? ;-)
