FBW: Allison from Alli ‘n Son and One of The Strong Woman in her Life (Ms. January)

By Allison @ Alli 'n Son  //  Featured Blogger of the Week Strong Woman  //  No Comments

Please welcome back each of our calendar bloggers as they join us for another week as the featured blogger of the week (FBW). This time they are sharing stories of survival and photos of the strong women in their lives. If you want to know how you can be a part of the Blogger Body Calendar project, please click here.

A blast from the past. My grandma, now a great grandma, with my son. Three years ago.

This is my grandma. Mother to 5. Grandmother to 11. Great-grandmother to 7 {and counting}.

She keeps up with my 3 year old son on their almost-weekly dates.

She’s a breast cancer survivor. She fully recovered from back surgery last year.

This photo is from 3 years ago, almost to the day. And she’s just as amazing and strong as she was then. More so even.

This is one of the strongest women in my life.

Is there a strong woman in your life? Share her photo on our Flickr group and you could be featured on the blog.

Ms. January, Allison can be found on twitter @Alli_n_Son and blogging at  Alli ‘n Son.

Author: Allison @ Alli 'n Son

Allison is a slightly OCD momma (yes, M&Ms must be eaten in pairs of matching colors) who blogs over at Alli ‘n Son and tweets at Alli_n_Son. She’s the momma of a spunky, energetic, and frustrating two year old boy. You can often find her up to the knees in potty training, bubbles and all things balls. She’s also a wanna-be photographer and gourmet chef, a highly creative woman and one-time graphic designer, all rolled into one.

About BBC2012

This year’s theme is: Survivor and Strength.

To me, above all, women are survivors. They survive domestic abuse, physical, sexual, and mental abuse, and the abuse we sometimes do to ourselves (eating disorders, cutting, etc.). Women survive, and do so beautifully.

This year our participants will show off that survivor strength, not because they are all survivors, but because they all are supporters of every woman who has had to struggle against the violence. All proceeds will go Violence UnSilenced.
