Stuck In the Middle
By: Kimberly Batchelor Davis

Here I am stuck in the middle of chaos, yet again. My laptop crashed –can you say disaster? Aiden, the baby won’t stop wailing. He just wails. He cries for attention, food, comfort and whatever else his little heart desires. It seems like my oldest, Miles, 4 years old wails, too. Last week literally it was bed time and they both wailed like Harpies. I just sat on the couch and cried. I wanted to walk away, but I couldn’t because I do love my children, but they are driving me up the wall. Everything came to a head because my husband said, “Go Out and have a drink. Don’t come back home.” Continue reading Kimberly’s post at Batchelor Davis and please post a motivational comment here for our ‘brand’ new mommy and contributor.

Recently I stopped coloring my hair to embrace my process of sexy and getting older; not to mention each application of gray was changing my hair texture and becoming more defiant. Perhaps, it did not want to dyed and who said that having gray hair at 46 is so bad? Continue reading →

Yahoo CEO: Reversing the Mommy Movement

Marissa Mayer

‘Brand’ New Moms: We can’t always compete with our male counterpart and that’s okay.

I really had to noodle on Yahoo CEO comment last week because its simple – she does not get it. Marissa Mayer wants to compete at every level however not possible. As an entrepreneur, working stay-at-home, my work day starts earlier, ends late and is productive. No luxury here – gotta work with what I have to get the job done. Here is an article from Mommyish.com about Ms. Mayer’s latest mommy move.

Ever since the Yahoo CEO announced her pregnancy, she became the reluctant poster-woman of working motherhood. If she could run a multi-billion dollar company while pregnant, it theoretically opened many doors for working mothers everywhere. Continue reading article on Mommyish.com.

Kindred The Family Soul ... Six Deep

Here’s the scenario.

The phone rings. I answer on speakerphone because one of the twins have removed the battery from the handset and lost it. On the other end is Karen Taylor Bass (my former publicist and “brand” new mommy) asking me to write what I am feeling right now for her blog.

So here goes.

Most people know I’ve got six children and my husband and I have built a successful career in the music industry as – Kindred The Family Soul. It’s fair to say I am a blog waiting to happen.

I often find myself walking the tight rope between two worlds of women: work and stay at home mamas. Both ladies have different philosophies and (might) compete with one another (why I don’t know) for some reason or another. Continue reading →
