I'm still figuring it out--and I have a feeling I will still be saying that 18 years from now...! At the end of the day, the part that I may not have communicated properly is that the wedding was SUPER fun! I LOVED the nostalgia and the pure love that is so intertwined with seeing my college friends. And in many ways it felt like things were exactly the same as they were in 1999. That I felt "different" at times--that was just one facet of a pretty perfect weekend.deepahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04591691453280770041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3461772347487902769.post-34876412443143880552008-10-13T22:15:00.000-07:002008-10-13T22:15:00.000-07:00I didn't get that from this post at all!

But I have to wonder...This is beautifully written. But I have to wonder: Don't you think you have relegated yourself firmly in the realm of "mommyhood" if you feel like you no longer belong to your former life? I am enjoying reading this blog. In part because I like the idea of "Mom Plus More." And I really liked this post. I just think you may be limiting yourself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3461772347487902769.post-81294589422664476082008-10-13T13:10:00.000-07:002008-10-13T13:10:00.000-07:00I have felt like this before.

I think this is part of the reason women gravitate towards friendships with other moms, once they have kids. There is always a sort of backstory that is common.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
