Mothering Many

Apparently, I have successfully cloned myself with out my knowledge and behind my own back, because I totally do NOT remember subscribing to this magazine, and yet, it arrived her a couple days ago, and it has my name on the label, and it says the subscription is good through the Dec/Jan 09 issue. I’m talking about Working Mother, of course, in case the title did not give that away.

Whenever and however I got this mag, I am glad I did. Even though I don’t work outside the home, I struggle with some of the same issues. For instance, there was an article on handling the “witching hour” in this issue, and I learned a few things from it. Here’s what working moms might not know that SAHMs do: there are actually TWO witching hours each day. Yeah, it’s not all roses and ice cream up in here, gals

I also enjoyed the article on theme parks. We have a new one opening not to far from here this spring, and I was pleased to see it got a mention. I think I most enjoyed the “realness” of the mag: real stories written by or about real moms with real solutions to real issues. So! Thanks Magazine Fairy, wherever and whoever you are! This one’s a winner.
