Meet Group Leaders Christine and Sandy!
Christine Koh is a music and brain scientist turned writer, editor, and designer. She spent a decade in academia and was about to become a professor when she decided to hang up her academic spurs in favor of more flexible and creative ventures. Christine is the founder and editor of Boston Mamas, a stylish resource portal for families in Boston and beyond, and is the self-taught designer behind Posh Peacock. Christine also is a freelance writer and editor and recently started a third blog – Pop Discourse – where she gives voice to her fascination with pop culture, the intellectually interesting or absurd, Boston life, and parenthood. She lives in the Boston area with her husband and 4-year-old daughter. Christine tweets at @bostonmamas.
Sandy Lee is a self-proclaimed typical career mom turned work-at-home, turned stay-at-home. For years she worked as a traveling neonatal nurse; moving, holding patients and especially her bladder for endless stretches of time. Now she's finally unpacked my bags in Boston, and occasionally uses her stethoscope to plug her ears as a stay-at-home mom. Tune in to her daily episodic nonsense at Momisodes.com. You may laugh. You may cry. You may even point and stare. Some days you just may do all three!

Lessons From My Dad
In May I signed on as a March of Dimes mom, through which I will donate one post per month to pre-pregnancy, pregnancy, newborn, or general family topics. In honor of Father’s Day, June’s suggested topic was – not surprisingly – dad issues. I know I’m a few days late in sharing my thoughts on this topic, but there’s a good reason why.
Fourth of July Fireworks
Oh my, clear skies...let's all hope for them together for this holiday weekend shall we? And if you’re trying to find fireworks near you, Sheri passed along a handy link from Boston Central that features a date/town ordered list of Massachusetts fireworks displays. Associated Content also features a large town ordered roster of Massachusetts fireworks displays, including original source links.
Will You Be My Pen Pal?
Although Laurel’s daycare runs year round, the summer tends to be a time for transition, and the recent departure of one of her friends reminded me of something I loved doing as a child: exchanging letters with pen pals. Laurel’s friend (or actually, her parents) left a colorful paper bag in each friend’s mail pouch with a sweet goodbye letter that included the friend's mailing address and a request to be pen pals. Also handily included: a note card and self-addressed stamped envelope to get the ball rolling.

Thanks so much for posting the event here Erin! That sounds great.
Hi Sher! So glad to see you here. We moved to the Boston area a little over 2 years ago from California. The adjustment has been shocking to say the least :) Hope to meet you next weekend!

- Hey Sher and Erin, thanks for commenting in! Sher, would be great to meet you next weekend (I'm assuming you are referring to the BlogHer meetup). RE: replying -- the interface is a tad non-intuitive, but to reply to a post you need to: a) be logged in at BlogHer and b) join the group. :-)

- Hi ladies! I'm wondering if I've finally found a group of women I can relate to!? Your blogs rock! I've had 3 major 'adjustments' in the last year. First came the birth of my first son about 11 months ago, which has been a totally wonderful and wacky experience! Next came a move from Baltimore to Boston, where I've been trying to find my way. Finally, I just started blogging! I'd love to come to the Boston Blog Meetup next weekend... but I can't even figure out how to reply to the damn post! My blog is http://expectingwithoutexpectations.blogspot.com. Don't laugh... I'm new at this!

- Angela, thanks for sharing the BlogHer meetup link -- awesome of Susan to organize, particularly as many folks won't be able to get to the Chicago meeting.
