Online Diary Chronicles the Daily Adventures of Parenting Two Sweet and Spicy Kids
Revealing. Refreshing. Raw. Mommylogue.blog is the newest voice in parenting, an online diary where Elle Double U Pepper writes about the hardest job a woman can have: mommying. With unusual candor, a razor-sharp wit and an abiding love for her little ones, Elle shares with readers her daily life raising two precious kids.
“It’s my inner dialogue (my mommy voice) unedited, unfiltered and undeniably relatable,” says Elle. “It’s my real-life documentation of the coveted community called mommyhood. My scrapbook stories.”
The just launched blog includes stories by Elle about how her life sometimes resembles the 80s comedy Adventures in Babysitting, mommying in the time of Final Four and going crib-less for the first time in seven years.
“I remember when I first got this crib. My older lovie was still in my belly and I was on the cusp of this journey,” Elle writes. “By the time he turned 2-years-old, I was sure I was one and done. But a year later, with a pap smear and a pep talk from my OBGYN, I got knocked up again. It’s was actually classier than that, but it’s a story for another time. By year three, we used that crib for the second little redhead in my life, and I have to admit it reminded me not only of my kids’ youth, but my own. Now, after seven plus years, my house is crib-less. Which has taken on a different meaning for me. No, I don’t want more babies — I love my children beyond, but two sometimes feels like 10, even on the best days — and I feel like I’ve entered a new stage. A new milestone in mommyhood.”
Types of responsible parenthood
Elle is a New York area mother living with two little red heads and her ginger-hued husband. She began writing her daily thoughts on social media and steadily built an audience. Now, with Mommylogue.blog, she is sharing her stories with a whole new audience.
“I think moms will appreciate my perspective because it’s real. I don’t sugarcoat the daily challenges we face raising children,” Elle says. “Every day is an adventure. Some days are better than others. Some days we feel like total failures. But each day belongs to us. This is my way of sharing those stories.”
