Meredith and One of the Strong Women

By amydpp // Featured Blogger of the Week Strong Woman // 1 Comment

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.

This is Maria and her daughter Gladys; we met them and became friends when we lived in Mexico. Maria had just bought her first home and Gladys had just begun her first year in college when this photo was taken. They supported themselves by cleaning houses. These women are just kick-ass.

Maria and Gladys

Meredith Groenevelt is the voice behind BuenoBaby; a humorous, candid, raw look at a life, a marriage and a mommy-hood. Along, with publishing her blog, she also freelances as a web designer. Occasionally she spends time on Twitter, and by occasionally, I mean she’s legally changing her name to @BuenoBabyGirl.

Today she lives in Wisconsin with her husband and their three daughters. She thinks she might have a cat.

I didn't write this post, I just make sure it was posted on this site for all of you to read. Because that's what I do.

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.
