The New Address


There was a major incongruity in the name of my blog and its actual content since beginning my conversion to Judaism. This is partially because the conversion is happening right now and is intense and that has been consuming my mindspace far more than babymaking, and it is partially because we have had to put off those plans since getting into our house and trying to get our finances in order again so I'm dreaming and writing about it less.

My new blog address is www.twojewishmoms.blogspot.com. As you can see, the future motherhood piece is still a major part of it, because that is still my primary intention of the blog - to have somewhere to work through the major project that I know it will be and that I know others can share in. It is certainly not an experience that is unique to us.

I can no longer say "well, my blog is about Judaism now because that's what I'm focused on as I convert, but it will soon go back to being about starting a family." With my conversion just over a week away, I am realizing that this will always be infused into every aspect of my life, and that my blog going forward will most likely be about both, and likely intertwined rather than separate. My exploration of Judaism and its impact on my life and identity will not stop on April 19.

So here I am. Same theme, same posts, but a title that hopefully is a little less misleading.
