This week's Southern Living Mama Blogger of the week is The Big Mama. Big Mama has lived in Texas all her life, and writes with a distinctly Southern voice.
We love this post about making plans for her 20 year high school reunion. An excerpt:
"About this time last year I received an email about plans for my twentieth high school reunion. And I thought, bless their hearts, it hasn’t been twenty years since we graduated from high school because that would mean we’re old and all drive minivans and wear sensible loafers. Then I did the math and realized that yes, as a graduate of the class of 1989, it has been twenty years since I teased the crap out of my bangs in the hopes they would be higher than my mortarboard cap when I walked the stage to receive my diploma and hugged all my classmates while a cassette tape of Whitney Houston belted out “One Moment In Time” over a mediocre sound system."
Seriously, I am laughing out loud.
"...this is about me trying to live the life of motherhood with some semblance of grace and dignity, yet still somehow managing to knock over large quantities of produce while grocery shopping."
Can't we all relate? I know I can.
Happy Friday mamas, with a very special shout out to those of you who are attending the BlogHer conference today. If you would like to nominate a Southern Blogging Mama for our feature please leave your suggestion in the Comments section below.
