And Still I Write [Print Replica] Kindle Edition

This is a memoir for anyone raising children, surviving change, and loving their family fiercely through it all.Ask my kids to read. They won’t. They will do just about any arduous task if it means avoiding the effort of making sense of written words on a page. And still, I write.I write letters to each of them in notebooks I plan to give them one day—notebooks they may never open, pages they may never see. This book is composed of sentiments that were initially intended for their eyes only. It has now become abundantly clear that if my words are ever to be read, they will have to be read by other people.Through a collection of letters, journal entries, and social media posts written during my days as a stay-at-home mom, a single mom, a working single mom, and a married working mom, I invite you to share in my experience of parenthood—and to feel all of the passion, pain, love, heartbreak, laughter, fear, courage, uncertainty, and discovery that make being a mother both the hardest and the greatest joy of my life.
