Get Your Steep On

Last updated on: February 1, 2013 at 3:00 am By Osheta Moore

I started the day feeling empty and overwhelmed by motherhood. My son got up at midnight sick and vomiting so I “slept” on the couch to be near him. This morning my six and seven year olds “made” their own breakfast when I accidentally overslept on the couch. As a result they spilled milk and green paint (wha…huh?) on my new tablecloth. After cleaned up the kitchen table and attempted to send the kids to school, my middle son refused... Read more

Third Way Womanhood Pt.3

Last updated on: January 30, 2013 at 1:33 am By Osheta Moore

So here we go, part three of “Third Way Womanhood”. Last week I wrote about my experiences with what I called, “The Fearlessly Feminine” camp (and can I just say, even with a whole week of working on that post and consequentially writing the word “feminine” like a billion times—I still manage to misspell it. Thank God for spell check!). This week, I’m going to share my experiences with what I will call the “Liberated Christian Woman” camp or LCW... Read more

A Day in the Life…Again

Last updated on: January 25, 2013 at 5:37 pm By Osheta Moore

On Fridays I am planning on joining this cool link up I found called: Five Minute Friday. I love it because it reminds me of my favorite Mother’s Day gift from my husband, a writing class in Harvard Square. I love the freedom to write whatever comes to mind. Five minute. No over-thinking. No over-editing. Just write. So hard for this perfectionist. I hope you enjoy… Again The children shuffle down the stairs, hair wild and breath fierce. I’m attempting a... Read more

So Boss Broccoli Cheddar Soup

Last updated on: January 24, 2013 at 1:43 pm By Osheta Moore

Yesterday was cold. Seven degree, you can get a refreshing glass of ice water from the tap, kids actually wanting to wear their winter gear, I don’t wanna get off the couch for fear of exposure–in my house…cold. What do you make for dinner when it’s that cold? Soup, of course. Last night I made Broccoli Cheddar soup in another attempt to replicate a favorite—Panera’s Cheddar Broccoli Soup. No, no political reasons this time, just curious to see if... Read more

Third Way Womanhood Pt.2

Last updated on: January 19, 2013 at 2:46 pm By Osheta Moore

“None But Jesus” is one of my favorite worship songs because it reminds me to find my center in Christ. Whenever I sing this song, I think back to being led in worship by the unbelievably gifted, Christy Nockels at a women’s conference. It was so exquisite, so breath-taking, so Kingdom, to be standing in a room full of women, under the sound of Christy’s voice, and sing that there is “None But Jesus”. That experience helped form what I... Read more

Third Way Womanhood Pt.1

Last updated on: January 9, 2013 at 11:10 pm By Osheta Moore

My father, a strict, retired Marine forbade us from watching BET (Black Entertainment Television) or listening to hip-hop. I was generally fine with that rule, I didn’t get black culture anyway so why would I need to listen to Kris Kross attempt to make me jump, jump or Bone Thugs harmonize. So, I obeyed without hesitation. My sister, on the other hand hated that rule. Which is why as soon as she moved out of my father’s house, she made... Read more

Resuming the Beautiful and Powerful Dialogue

Last updated on: January 1, 2013 at 10:05 pm By Osheta Moore

My favorite seventh grade teacher was named Mrs. Sparrowhawk and she was everything you’d expect a woman whose name was comprised of two seemingly contradictory birds to be. She was thin and frail, but robust and commanding. There were moments in class where she’d flit around the room full of excitement because we were all participating in class discussion. She’d draw us out, helping us give words to our thoughts and then validate our efforts to engage literature. There were... Read more

When the kids came down last week and found a scroll on the tree detailing their week of generous giving, Tyson was incredulous. “Mom! We’re kids we don’t have anything to give…I’m broke!” And he’s right. The boy is broke, primarily because he spends every bit of birthday money or chore allowance on the latest and greatest action figure/battling card game. But, he’s wrong because does have something to give… he’s got stuff. The action figures, the cards, the wii... Read more

Yes, I’m That Mom!

Last updated on: December 14, 2012 at 3:11 pm By Osheta Moore

Today the kids had their annual peace day concert. All of the classes perform a selection of songs that encourage peace, unity, and dignity for all people. It’s one of my favorite Haggerty events, and I was more than a little sad to think we may not be a part of the Haggerty community next year when we (hopefully) move to Roxbury. This year Ms. Irvin Kent outdid herself. There was dancing, instrument playing, and sign language to accompany the... Read more
