BMU goes public...

Edit: Well if you want to check out this segment of Wake Up, Live with Corey & Drea, its is online. Go to this link-BMU goes public. It is the last segment of this episode. It was fun and reflective. I shocked myself with some of my "out loud" reflections. WonderWoman has grown so much, and I am so grateful for the experiences... in hindsight (cuz in the midst of the storm I was not so grateful... wink). This is a great show, not just because they are my friends... they are really creative and they are destined to do even bigger things. Check out their website to learn more about the show and to see other episodes: http://wakeuplivetv.com/

We all know at least one person that is quick to action... well one of my super hero friends, Corey Manning, who also inspired this blog... is one of those people. He and I have jokingly talked about doing a radio or tv show segment about the experiences of BabyMommas and BabyDaddies- discussing issues, sharing growth, and giving feedback on how to be better BMs and BDs... when you know better-do better! Well last weekend we were talking with another super hero, RobertB... and Corey shared this idea with RobertB... and this actually sparked a really good conversation. Well as super heroes often do... Corey jumped into action...

So Today, RobertB and I will be taping a segment on Corey's TV Show, Wake Up, Live with Corey & Drea, on BNN (Channel 9 on Comcast- Live Fridays 4pm, and rebroadcasting Monday and Wednesday 7am... check out www.coreymanning.com for more information). This will be interesting and fun. Blogging has been a great creative space and had an air of anonymity, but Today... WonderWoman will show herself...

For a short moment I was unsure about going public, but that was just for a short moment. I work with children and families everyday and this is just another medium to share. The gifts I bring to my work is truly because of my lived experience as a young person and as a mother. As I said in my earlier post about why blog about it... I do not consider myself and expert of "all things BabyMomma", but I know my experiences are real and I have grown a lot through them. Dr. Phil has the 80/20 relationship rule... well I have the WonderWoman 90/10 rule, which is, I am right 90% of the time and I will apologize for the 10% when it happens... LOL

So now I have to figure out what to wear to camouflage my "baby weight"... yeah I know my boys are 16 and 12 but it's taken me a while to loose those last few pounds... LOL. Wow typing their age just spooked me... my BabyBoy just turned 12 last week.

In the spirit of sharing... BabyDaddy and I are getting better and better at co-parenting. Especially given the ages of our sons. We have our quasi-BoyzNtheHood reality these days (I will have to blog about that later), and its working well.

Well I have to go figure out my outfit and get to my J-O-B.
