Welcome to The Compleat Mother Blog!
by Angela van Son October 13, 2006 at 7:21 am
Welcome to my first ever blog entry! It’s a little weird being able to communicate like this, so instantaneous and without barrier. All this technology is pretty cool. I am thrilled to unveil what I’ve been working on these last few months. This website is the culmination of the creative vision of some very special people. I would like to honour and thank you — you know who you are — for your dedication to seeing this project come to fruition, your patience with me after the umpteenth question about layout minutia and the extraordinarily long hours you have put in to make this such a beautiful, comforting place. I am especially grateful to Brad Murray, who has gone above and beyond in his efforts to help me realise this dream. It is his diligence and creative intuition that has really breathed life into my vision. Of course, no thanks can be offered to Brad without equally acknowledging the sacrifice his wife and daughters made in the name of Compleat Mothers everywhere.
My greatest desire is for this place to grow into a thriving community, to share and be heard, and to be in relationship with others from our tribe. A place just to be.
I am very proud of us and of how we have forged ahead. I am only able to do what I do because of the love and support of all of you around me, who believe in this work as much as I do. You hold me up so I can hold this magazine up. Thank you.
