The decision to blog about my child « blue milk http://www.breedemandweep.com/the-one-where-im-not-sure-what-im-going-to-say/comment-page-1#comment-54745 Reluctant blog material? The decision to blog about my child « blue milk Sat, 26 Jul 2008 15:33:07 +0000 http://www.breedemandweep.com/?p=383#comment-54745 [...] Blogging, like any autobiographical writing involves an inherent moral judgement by the writer. Not just how much to reveal about oneself but how much to reveal about others? This blog is written with love. So, for instance I tend not to blog too much about my arguments and tensions with others, even though at times this has meant I’ve not talked about what are fairly universal and important themes in motherhood. I personally believe such blogging would be unfair - I’d control not only the version of events but the dissemination of that story. I apply these same cautions to talking about my child, some aspects of her development have been deliberately ignored here. My partner is deeply private, he prefers not to think about my blog and rarely reads it. And really, strangely I’m a relatively private person too, though with a “two drink limit” to sharing, much like that described nicely here by Breed ‘Em and Weep. I’ll post any thought/confession of mine that I’d be willing to share with strangers at a dinner party, after two glasses of wine, which is actually quite a lot. Only twice have I questioned something I’ve written and neither of these revealing posts were specifically about my daughter.  [...] [...] Blogging, like any autobiographical writing involves an inherent moral judgement by the writer.

Would I say this at a dinner party in front of people I've only just met, if not, don't post it. Problem is I will say a lot at a dinner party in front of people I've only just met. Still, I'm consistent. I love your description of Internet-sharing boundaries – the 2 drink rule, I have often used a similar rule.

Don't worry. I can relate to the holiday thing. I really thought about life like that...how many kids did I want returning home as adults for the holidays. I have 3 of my own. Plus one step-which should make life real interested when that time comes... You will. Don’t worry.

It's actually gotten eerie. ME TOO. I love Thanksgiving better than any other holiday, because it's all about food and friends and family, and the year that Chrissy was born was the first year I ever hosted Thanksgiving on my own and I've never stopped since. Some faces are there that I couldn't have imagined (Lula's, for example); some are not there that I always thought would be, and the table has moved halfway around the world and back again, but it's still Thanksgiving because the second I became a mom I took it in my hands and I made it mine, for my family. And you know, your family endures! It more than endures, it's there, right there! Home, as someone said up above, is where you are, because you are the Mama now, girly. YOU are home.
