Welcome to my world!
This is a blog mostly about Good night moon and diapers, but with some queer theory and feminist rantings thrown in. I am a lesbian mother living out her dreams with her wife and son in the great state of Massachusetts where we are legally married.
I cashed out my 401k so I could stay at home for my son’s first year. I watched too many episodes of Law and Order, and ended up in law school. My wife and I are trying and have another baby. Baby number 2 has been somewhat elusive.
Law and Order could do that to a person. That’s why I try to avoid tv except when I’m alone in a hotel.
Yay, another law school mom.
Your blog is great. Have you read “Adventures of Law School Mama”? Dakota has two kids with her partner and is going into her third year of law school. You might enjoy her.

Okay, duh, I should have just looked at your blogroll.
Hey – Do I know you by another name? (Not really expecting you to reveal that here.) I came across your blog because you link to mine, and you SEEM like someone I should know. Welcome to the club!Baby-making during first year of law school? Really? If possible, wait until Y2. Less stress. The first year is an emotional roller coaster into a strange new land – for you and your wife. It is likely to be wonderful and horrible (sometimes at the same moment) on you and your family. It gets better
Have fun and good luck!
It was very nice to read your blog. My name is Heather and my partner Sheri and I live in Tucson Arizona. We are expecting our first child in December and plan to move to Boston (or somewhere near enough to commute) the December or January following.
There are many reasons for our decision to move: one being that Sheri has no rights to our child here, two is that Arizona is ranked the lowest in education out of all of the states, and three is the job market situation.
I was inspired by your attending law school, as I have dreamed of it but cant see a feasible way to attend since working will not be an option while in school. Sheri and I will both have our Masters degrees by the end of this year (right before the baby is due…whew
) and with all of our other plans it all feels overwhelming.
If you get the time or inclination, it would be nice to correspond with you about your move, your life now, and anything else helpful you can think of.
Good luck to you with your classes.
Heather
Hey, this blog is great! Where have you been my whole first semester!
Whoa! I used to live in Massachusetts! Sorry, this is irrelevant to all of the other comments on your blog, but I felt the need to state this.
I enjoy reading your blog. I have been perusing alternative parenting blogs and websites, because I’m trying to build a family of my own. Check out my blog: http://xyajax.blogspot.com/
I’m new to blogging, as you will see, but hopefully I’ll get the hang of it soon. Thanks.
I wanted to write you and say that I really enjoy reading your blog. It is a great read. Hopefully you’ll be writing more now that finals are over. It is stellar.
I am also writing you to introduce Eden Fantasys. We are an online adult community and etailer. Over the past few years we have developed an amazing community of contributors from all over. We offer wide open forums for them to discuss issues without fear of prejudice. We have thousands of customer reviews with material guides. We offer online interviews with manufacturers, artists, social media gurus and more. We also have an online magazine devoted to quality writing and exploration of sex and culture. We really have an amazing community and love working with them and showing them off.
Over the past few months we have worked really hard to raise awareness of what we have to offer. I have been working with other great parents and bloggers using fun promo’s like contest and reviews as well as editorial write-ups and more to spread the word and have fun as well!! I would be honored if you would be interested in working with Eden Fantasys and helping to bring your community and mine together.
Either way keep up your amazing blog, I look forward to reading more.
Sincerely,
Laura Manfredi
