I'm going to be in a magazine!

Redbook Magazine is going to do an article on how women in highly stressful jobs relax. They interviewed a Good Morning America news corrospondant, a female NASCAR driver, an Air Traffic Controller and ME!! Mother of 6, one of those 6 being disabled. I was floored! I mean, I know what I do is stressful, but try telling that to my husband who I'm sure thinks I sit at home all day watching soaps and eating bon bons. (which I do, but that's just on Wednesdays).

I told the lady that interviewed me that I was very proud to be put into this group of women. She told me that when she told all the other women the group they were in consisted of a mother of 6 with a disabled child, they all thought MY job was the most stressful! (honey, pass the bon bons please)

I had to send them a picture of myself and of the children. Maybe they wanted to see if I really had 6 children. Luckily they all look alike so they don't think I just pulled random children off the street for a portrait.

Right now the article is in the editing and re-write stages. They aren't sure which month it will appear, but it is a for sure thing. I'll update the blog as I find out more. After all, you need to read it. See how important I am. I'll autograph your copy for $5 or a package of bon bons. (my supply is running low)
