My Daughter's Blog

Well I had someone sarcastically remarking "Diary of  A Mad Black Woman" when referencing my blog.   Fortunately, there's a new blogger in town with a younger and fresher perspective on life.  I feel the blog writings are full of personality.

If you have a child then I'm sure you can relate to there comes a lot of instances when they "first" did a myriad of things.  The first time they drink from a bottle, the first time they cooed (oh so cute), the first time they hold their head up, the first time they crawl, the first time they take a step, the first time they go to day care.  The first time they go to school.  Life is full of firsts. 

Well fast forward twenty plus years and as a mother I still count the firsts.  In recent months it was the first time my baby girl wrote a blog post.  I am proud to say I am one of the first to subscribe to it. 

I do admit her blog posts have a whole lot more personality to them than my own.  I hope it sticks with her.  I remember her first literary masterpiece which was Women Warriors.  Someone stole her idea and made a cartoon out of it (and it made it to television is how we found out).  They didn't even change the names of the characters from her original masterpiece.

Well, of course I'm including a link to her blog.  It's http://laurenmcclain713.blogspot.com/

Oh and by the way I have always jokingly told Lauren she fell in love with her voice the first time she cooed and hasn't shut up since.

I hope you get a chance to read her blog and leave her a few words of encouragement.  Enjoy!
