Aleta in the City: Check out my new Huffington Post blog!

Exciting news!

I just made my debut as a blogger on The Huffington Post, one of the hottest news and lifestyle sites on the web! Below is a sneak peek of my blog, entitled "A Mom at 57? Before You Judge Me, Read This!"

Be sure to leave me a comment here or on The Huffington Post site (or both!). I'll definitely be checking in and posting my responses in the coming days!  

"Then again, who's to really say when it's too late - or too early- to have a baby? Jamie Lynn Spears, who just had a baby at 17, and me, who had twins at 57, become controversial because we've had babies at ages very at odds with the "ideal" time for motherhood. But you know what? It's not about the baby. (Babies in my case.)

It's about recognizing that life can be extraordinary and magical when it's most challenging- even in the middle of a $700 billion federal bailout or when you bring two infants home for the first time at my age. There's beauty and opportunity in chaos and perceived imperfection."

My love and blessings,
