Blogger Reviews Part Deux - Mommy Bloggers!

Today, I'm going to cover a disparate range of mommy bloggers who have caught my interest.  Lately, it seems like every day I'm stumbling across a new fantastic mommy blogger.  I'm drawn more to the "imperfect" range of mommy bloggers rather than the mommies who make cute crafts out of loo rolls and have perfect themed birthday parties and children who's diapers don't stink.  This week, these woman top my list of mommies who are able to blog about their who work with their "imperfect" lives and children in humorous, insightful and often inspiring ways.

True Inspiration: My Favourite Divorce Bloggers

I'm just over three months into my blogging journey, and I was struck this morning by the sense of camaraderie that I already feel with my cohorts.  So for the next few blogs, I thought I'd write about my new favourite bloggers (and my new favourite women).  

Today, I'm featuring three of my favourite divorce bloggers.  If you haven't read their blogs, I encourage you to link up with them (I've provided links to their blogs as well as their Twitter and Facebook Fan pages).  They are all very intelligent, wise, and funny women who have taken a bad situation and tried very hard to make the best of it.  I've chosen three women who are all in their post-divorce period, but each experienced the divorce and recovery in a very different way.

Why I'm jealous of my husband's ex-wife (and it's not the reason you think)

Like me, my husband married his ex-wife when he wasn't fully cooked.  He'd had a LOT more experience than I ever had in the area of romance.  He married a woman who is incredibly intelligent, talented and beautiful.  A lot, you'd think, for me, his second wife (and third significant relationship) to live up to.

But despite the fact that she is an incredible, well-travelled, and all around smart woman, I am not concerned when my husband sends her e-mails asking for advice or offering it, or spends a couple of hours a month talking to her on the phone.  I am unconcerned that they go out of their way to have coffee or lunch together if they happen to be in the city at the same time.  Even though he tells me how incredibly smart she is all the time.  Even though I've never actually met her.
