To the most fabulous readers on the planet:
Thank you for coming by this little spot on the internet and making me feel like I’m not alone in this parenting journey. Believe it or not, I do have to credit you with some of the strides I’ve made this year.
I do think, since I started blogging, that I am a better mother than I was before. I am more patient, more understanding, more creative, more flexible. I learn more and more from my fellow young moms and even those who don’t have children (I’m looking at you, Jen!).
You guys are awesome and whenever I get an e-mail from a reader saying that they are glad this blog exists, it brings me joy. It makes me want to do even more for my readers, because if not for you, I would have stopped blogging a long time ago. This is time-consuming and some nights I sit here at the keyboard, staring at the letters hoping that by some miracle I can put them in an order that makes sense to most of my readers and it can touch their heart.
I write about what it means to be a young mom because I couldn’t really find it anywhere else. I now feel like I belong to an incredible group of smart, talented, passionate, kind, caring women who I am proud to “know.”
You are the best. Thank you so much. Merry Christmas!
Love,
Tara aka the Young Mommy
YAAAAYYYYYY! Keep up the great work!
Hey Mrs Tara!
Merry Christmas and thank you for encouraging me to start my own blog. I’m having a blast and look to you for continued inspiration! I might be an old mommy but I love being a part of your Your Mommy Club!
I pray that you have a WONDERFUL Christmas with the family and an even better new year!
MUAH!

Aw, I appreciate your effort to bring us fresh posts every week. I have loved your blog since I first discovered it early this past summer. Merry Christmas, everyone!
Tara,
This is my first time every visiting your blog but I have already subscribed! I have been looking for other mommies my age to blog with – no offense to the older mommies but sometimes I feel that they just don’t understand all of our issues or complications with being young and having babies! I am almost 23 with a 5 year old son and there is a lot that older mommies just don’t get about me! I’m really happy that I found you and I hope that you can stop by my blog and we can stay in touch!
Good to “meet” you!
Meg
@Meg – See, this is why I started my blog!!! So excited to “meet” you. Will be checking out your blog!!!
