I have been posting on Mormon Momma for awhile now, and those who have read my posts know that I have been known to…ahem…complain on an occasion or two about my husband’s schedule.

Reflections of a twice-divorced, LDS single mom.

This morning I read a post by a woman who is considering starting a “love note writing business” for men who can’t seem to let their mushy side out. It reminded me of myself 23-ish years ago.

I have had the opportunity and blessing to associate with many young women at the prime of their lives. They are full of excitement for life, excitement for the future, and love for the gospel.

Do you ever answer questions from men?
I’ve been married for nearly three years to a great woman, but it seems that she puts her mother before me. They are always on the phone together, my wife goes to her house at least three times a week with our baby daughter, they […]

An anonymous reader writes:
I would love to initiate a conversation about “The Big D”: divorce. Really difficult divorce, (not that any divorce is easy!). Please, some realistic conversation! I have read other articles that are not, in my opinion, helpful in my situation. They usually run something like this: Sister Nielsen is surrounded by her […]
