Intro

[Meek]

Hi ladies, it's great to finally find a website geared toward black moms! I have been married almost 4 years (on Valentine's Day) and my husband and I have two children. Our son is 4 years old and our daughter is 1 year old. It does make a very exciting home life, lol. I am 6 months preggie with our 3rd child. (It's a girl!) And I am telling you I feel pregnant. My hips and my back are sore, I can fall asleep at the drop of a hat, and I am loving spicy food right about now. Ok now I'm realizing I'm hungry and wishing I could get some hot wings when I get off of work. But I can't because they'll be closed. oh well....anyway....

I will be 30 on the 1st and I guess it's making me take stock of my life. What have I done with these past 30 years? Have I reached any of my goals? Will I reach the rest of my goals? What are my new goals? So many questions to address. The first goal, which was more of a dream, was to become a writer. So how did I end up becoming a computer operator? I really don't know. I remember thinking my writing probably wasn't good enough (Even though I was a reporter for my school newspaper & had a scholarship for 2 semesters at said school). It is amazing what you can talk yourself out of. I have been my own worst critic. Well no more--it's a New Year and time for a new outlook. This Sunday's sermon was based around it being a new year and in order to expect new things, you have to incorporate a new attitude in your daily & spiritual life. And that's just what I'm going to do! I am a writer and I will write write write!!!!

Or type ; )

Hi Meek!!! Welcome to MommyToo. I look forward to seeing more of your blog posts. :)

Hi Meek,

I want to really encourage you to write and fulfill your dream of becoming a writer. I, too, have only and always wanted to be a writer. It's what I was born to do.

Since you're just starting to get the writing bug again I suggest start by blogging. Just by blogging alone I have been offered other blogging jobs at Yahoo!, Capessa.com (Procter and Gamble), Pull-Ups.com and Mom Logic (Warner Brothers). So, start small, but be dedicated and other blessings will come your way. Promise.

Remember -- believe in yourself and others will believe in you, too!

Today, we will be featuring you on our pregnancy blog. I will come back later to leave you the link.

Happy Writing.
