A little while ago Deborah Bryan, a blogger friend who writes at The Monster in Your Closet invited contributions to a series she called “Oh, Yes I Did!” The series is an opportunity for people to tell a story of overcoming adversity, particularly when you’re told you can’t do it. You should read her own words on the series.

Of course, this sounded like something I totally needed to join in on. Check out my contribution over at her site. While you’re there, you should stick around and read her reflections on motherhood, life, overcoming adversity, and relationships. She is a gifted and thoughtful writer who is unafraid of being vulnerable. I can’t recommend her site enough.
