About this Blog

Momfidence! cheers on commonsense parenting and sighs at the rest. How to worry less, wing it more. A.k.a. parenting by the seat of my mid-rise mom jeans.

About Paula Spencer

I'm the author of Momfidence! An Oreo Never Killed Anybody and Other Secrets of Happier Parenting, and a mom of four in Chapel Hill, North Carolina (where you can't even buy Oreos at the two wholesome groceries nearest to my home).

Where You'll Find Me

I'm triple-bloggin' these days, only in once place about motherhood & momfidence, but thought I'd tell you about all three:

1. For mom stuff: As the previous post says, I'm on "The Daily WD" at womansday.com on Mondays,  Wednesdays, and Fridays -- including the return of the weekly Momfidence Lighten-Up-and-Eat-a-Cookie Award.

2. For me/you stuff (BRAND SPANKING NEW!): Starting this week, I'm the "Suburban Farmgirl" blogger at MaryJanesFarm.org. "Farmgirl spirit can take root anywhere -- dirt or no dirt." MaryJane likes to say "Farmgirl is a condition of the heart" -- so if you're into fabulous food, organic living/farming, thrift, camaraderie, can-do spirit, stitching, making, cowboy boots and cuuuute aprons (or just like to think about any of the above), come & visit from wherever you live!!

3. For another kind of caregiving: Down at the eldercare end of the age spectrum, I also post on Tues and Thurs to the "Caring Currents" blog at Caring.com -- the next big frontier in American family life. I cover a lot there about relationships, stress, family conflict, self care and other stuff moms can relate to.

And I still do the print stuff, too, chiefly my favorite, the "Momfidence" column in Woman's Day.

FYI: this old costume pic is of my daughters (in mom-made duds) from my current WD post, and the bicycle is me on my first "horse," from my first Suburban Farmgirl post...and then there's me and *my* Daddyo, from my current Caring.com post.
