Being a good Son. (shamless promotion of my mom!)

CaptnJ teaching mom to blog and use MSN messenger!

I am super proud of my mom. She really does a great job as a mother, wife, guide and advisor. Now that she has done a great job with my brother, sister and (can't you tell?)... ME. She wants to share her experences so that other younger mothers and families can benefit as well. In this day and age there is not better medium than the Internet (of course!). One problem with the internet is that its generally considered "for the youth". My mom (no matter how you would like to push the definition of 'youth') is not a youth. In fact my mom enjoys her seniority, it lends weight to the words she says!

Instead of just useless idle words "oh i want to help other moms..." my mom is really doing it! You have to understand that while people probably don't get more "inteligent" as generations pass by, they do have the same tendancy to be hard to change in mindset and habits. It takes a great level of "discomfort" to learn something new and out of our usual practice especially in the area of technology. Thats why Im so proud of my mom. she has ventured into blogging. This is a MAJOR discomfort for a 50+ year old (dont worry she's very secure about her age =D) non techie. So here we are... soon to be the BEST blog on the web for mothers and families everywhere

No joke, my mom is a great writer, and super wise. If only more people would just DO WHAT SHE SAYS... the world will be a better place. I don't say that flippantly I really mean it. Hope you enjoy her blog!
