How do they do this?!?

I love mom bloggers.
They make me laugh, make me cry, make me feel normal when they write about things I only think about! One thing that amazes me is how they find time. I'm a mom to just a one child, with a husband and a small house and I can't find the time to think about issues let alone write about them. I'm always in amazement of how eloquent, impactful and soulful mom bloggers can be. They tackle topics that are near and dear to my heart. They are passionate, respectful (most of the time!) and can explain things in my language. I always feel like I have a lingering smell of poop on me, I'm only convincing when I yell, and the topics I care about only pertain to me and very few other people in my life!

I'm going to try harder to write more. To research more and write about what I care about. I want to write freely, purposefully and happily! The key is to find the time, topics, and once and for all finding out where that smell of poop is coming from!

Mom bloggers rock!
I started out with a 'mom blog' and I felt very similar to how you're feeling now. I couldn't believe how eloquent these women were when it felt like the only words in my vocabulary were no, poop and milk.

My advice would be to just write! Don't worry about finding a topic or doing research right now. Right about what's going on in your life.

You are a wealth of knowledge and don't even know it :)

I agree. Some of these moms amaze me. If my kids are clothed? Then the day has been a success. If I've fed them? It's like the lottery. Fitting time to write or whatever it is that you call what I do is near impossible.
