It’s Saturday and I am very excited to bring you today’s link finds. These posts will make you laugh, cry and appreciate that
to love something so much that the idea of losing it could bring you to a whole new dimension of suffering, well then that love is a blessing.
Laura at An Uncommon Family showed us that there is beauty in the ability of a blog to make you laugh through a shared experience. Things Women in Dressing Room Lines Should Never Speak Of is a hilarious and spot on tale of one woman’s experience when confronted with the awkward socialization that strangers are forced into in small spaces.
Early Mama’s shares her sweet and honest post 15 Ways to Better Wifedom in which she shares what she does to be a better wife for her husband. The key is being happy with who you are and your place in the world. Teaching us that you can’t be loved by anyone else if you don’t love yourself.
Drew Magary of DeadSpin wrote the post Pain Is a Gift, and Other Notes from a Terrified Father During a Seven-Week-Premature Birth. It is a wonderfully written, touching post about premature labor and what it is like to be the husband whose wife and child are in danger of not coming home from the hospital. Mr. Magary tells his story with humor and raw honesty that pull you in hold your attention. This is my absolute must read for the week.

Tracy of Sellabit Mum wrote a wonderfully poignant post, Be a Good Friend. It was a how-to letter to her daughters about how to navigate the murky waters of female friendship. Wonderfully written and a must read for any mother of girls.
Jenni Chui of MommyNaniBooBoo shared her very personal and brave story about making the toughest choice a woman can ever be faced with in her post, I had an Abortion. Would I Choose to do it Again. This bravery and honesty needs to be read by every person who believes in women’s rights.
