I've been away for several days and lost it in the shuffle. I checked out your blog and wonder if you've adjusted by now!Hope Perlmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10599511890390199730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6525161379578984040.post-58506376137744168252012-05-03T17:57:59.183-04:002012-05-03T17:57:59.183-04:00I finally had a chance to read your post, Hope.

I think I have a couple of years to wait, but I could be so wrong! Nicely written. And your descriptions of your Boston and Manhattan identities brought a smile. I remember both of you! :)<br /><br />Congratulations!NancyCnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6525161379578984040.post-44119822590386557462012-05-02T09:34:57.942-04:002012-05-02T09:34:57.942-04:00AHHHHH!!!

I saw it mentioned on Twitter and I hardly go on cause I'm still learning to be a Twit!<br />I just started my own initiative called No Makeup May the essence of which is to inspire women to become more conscious of our choices when we're slathering on the concealer or wriggling into a pair of spanx or spending $100 dollars on ANOTHER pair of black high heels because this season is....which is it? Wedge, stiletto, chunky, whatever. <br />The idea was born out of the frustration after seeing Miss Representation and realizing that little has changed, and a conversation I had with a friend about feminine identity and acceptance. <br />Anyway, I've explained it on my own blog - nomeakeupmay.blogspot.com<br />I hope you'll have a moment to have a look and maybe bring the movement to your area. And if this thing becomes as big as I hope it will, your daughters will be reminded every year of their true beauty :)<br />I'm currently on day two of "going Boston" :)<br />You're a great writer and a great mom and a very insightful voice for women!!!Nicole Owenhttp://nomakeupmay.blogspot.ca/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6525161379578984040.post-30979822451442040102012-05-01T20:53:39.044-04:002012-05-01T20:53:39.044-04:00Teri, Thanks for the comment--and the WP input.

And while I don't have children myself just yet, I remember this very same moment with my parents - although they didn't go through the steps of explaining the root of my make-up desires. Also, I wore far too much blush that first day - causing me to never touch the stuff again until my early 20's. hmm, maybe that was their plan?Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13564617012323826126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6525161379578984040.post-30916802323695519902012-05-01T12:06:26.979-04:002012-05-01T12:06:26.979-04:00Hope, as the father of boys who finds little girls...Hope, as the father of boys who finds little girls a complete mystery, thank you for your work.

I found you (and your Motherlode piece) through your comment over at Betsy's. <br /><br />No professional envy, I promise. ;-) Here's to success, which I'm pretty sure is contagious for the hardworking sorts. <br /><br />I know a few people who've converted from Blogger to Wordpress, and liked the format better after the pain of the change.

It was a conscious effort made by the women's movement when I was growing up, and I guess I'm trying to carry on a tradition that seems to have been sidelined by the idea that everything's great for women now.Hope Perlmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10599511890390199730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6525161379578984040.post-5127804211572782472012-04-30T18:36:04.680-04:002012-04-30T18:36:04.680-04:00Hello!
