Not the archaic truth, that you can never repay your mother, but the rueful admission that when she took the two-toned lanyard from my hands, I was as sure as a boy could be that this useless worthless thing I wove out of boredom would be enough to make us even.” - The Laynard, by Billy Collins www.mothersemergeworldwide.wordpress.com www.wahm.com - great working at home while balancing motherhood tips www.thisfullhouse.com - NJ mother of four who makes me laugh when I need to

Women “When they say, ‘Who do you think you are,’ tell them who you are and don’t hold back…When they say ‘you’re incorrigible, defiant, hard to get along with, unreasonable woman…’ Say, ‘yes, yes, yes.’ And I have worse news for you yet—we are teaching our daughters, and our mothers, and our sisters.
