However, after seeing this beautiful video essay by her,
I am pretty sure I need to change that. I am not a mother,
but I challenge any woman to watch this and not feel the sudden
overwhelming desire to call or hug her own mother.
Katherine Center is the author of The Bright Side of Disaster, Everyone Is Beautiful, and Get Lucky.

Oh....I want my mumsie! This is beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteOh..what a wonderful share, Juju. Thanks for the warm thoughts and smile... ^_^
ReplyDeleteAw, this is beautiful! Thanks for sharing! :)
ReplyDeleteNice! Just dropped my youngest off at college--hard to let go, but an exciting opening to new vistas for all. It's the coming, and going, and coming, and going that's amazing and painful and worth it.
ReplyDeleteThis was beautiful :) , Ive read Get Lucky - head to www.thephantomparagrapher.blogspot.com or www.chicklitclub.com for my review.
ReplyDeleteAw Juju...that was nice. I'm a mama (2 daughters) and could totally relate =)
ReplyDeleteOkay, so this is quite funny. Not the video, well maybe. There are quite a few of the gals in the video I actually know in real life. So it's kind of funny to them randomly on your blog! :o)
ReplyDeleteAs for Katherine Center...I have to say, I love love love this video! It does such a good job of portraying the beauty of it all.
Now, my two cents about her writing...some really love it, others don't. Most lean toward liking it. So I hope you enjoy! I'm not a huge fan for reasons I won't get into here, but I still appreciate her message here. It's fantastic! ;o)
great video. thanks for sharing:)
