March 2008
While rocking, breastfeeding, and reading to Rosalina, Mommy Moo Moo received a message in her head, “You could write books like this.” and she thought, “Yeah, right.”
July 2008
Mommy Moo Moo experienced the Coxsackievirus which created 20+ ulcers in her throat plus many other areas of her body. As a result of this virus, she “woke up” and wrote three short children’s stories known as “Slices of Life” for each of her 3 daughters: Ashlee, Rachel, and Rosalina.
October 2008
The story for Loblolly, Loblolly, You’re So Tall came forth as if it was downloaded to Mommy Moo Moo from the ether. She quickly wrote down everything that she heard as if someone was dictating the story to her. She realized afterward that the story represented all of her thoughts about loblolly pine trees throughout the years from walking in her neighborhood. Prior to this download, Mommy Moo Moo had been gazing out the window of her home office looking at the beautiful loblolly pine trees in her backyard.
