I’m a woman and a mommy. When I woke up Sunday morning to learn that Senator Mc Cain had picked Alaska Governor Sarah Palin for his running mate, I instinctively clapped with glee and said out loud, “What an iteresting twist on the campaign trail….” Here’s another one about to shatter the glass ceiling.

This morning, and as a couple of days have gone by, I find the joy short-lived and start to wonder. This NY Times article got me thinking even further if Sarah Palin is doing the right thing.  Read it and share your views. Here in Manila we have yayas and in-laws to help us raise our children. I don’t know how it is with Gov. Palin but I guess she has made the necessary preparations and thought this decision out well.

She and I are almost the same age and I admire her for how far she has come. There is no perfect world, as there are no perfect moms or marriages. Her life certainly proves that. How America votes will be a reflection in part, of how it views this mommy issue. Her family’s issues is like a drama playing itself out in public.

What do you think?
