I first came across it when I was contemplating going to law school and having a baby at the same time. I emailed you and you were kind enough to email back with some encouraging words. I was pregnant with my daughter my 3L year and gave birth 2 days before graduation. I've never once regretted my decision to have a baby while in law school and you were my inspiration all along. Now, I'm a happy mom of two (contemplating having a third and finding myself going back and forth about whether we want to add another tiny human to the picture much like you were), and practicing attorney. I owe you more thanks than you even know. I've genuinely loved reading every post and watching your kids grow. I'll miss you, your blog, and hearing about your family but I wish you all the very best.

Thank you for sharing with us and for being so raw/honest. You offer the perfect balance between sharing the positives and negatives, something I haven’t found on any other blog.

It's counter cultural for women and because of that it takes courage and great strength and it is a beautiful example to your precious kids. <br /><br />I, too, credit you for me going back to school and now having my own practice, while raising my kids and now single-parenting. You are an inspiration and a gift, Rebecca! And I want to add just because we've all left these comments does not mean you can't jump back in anytime. Only you know what you need and can tackle each day. Who knows? Maybe a few blog posts here and there will still be therapeutic, as needed. : ) <br /><br />Thank you for sharing your beautiful self and changing so many of our worlds.

I see much of my younger self in you (although I went from government to private practice). Trust me when I say that it will get easier (not always, but sometimes). Your honesty and humor are incredibly refreshing at a time when so many people only show Instagram-perfect selves. Parenting 3 kids, tending to marriage and your extended family and friends, meal planning and exercise all add up to more than a full time job. Be kind to yourself and rest for a while. We’ll miss you, but you need to prioritize YOU right now. And if you come back, we’ll all be here waiting and cheering.

I will miss knowing about the goings on with your kiddos and seeing the fun shenanigans with your mom tribe. You have been so vulnerable and yet so respectful of your loved one's privacy. I understand how as kids get older and grapple with more hard stuff it becomes even more of a tight-rope about what you feel you can write about. Please know that you entertained me, supported me, taught me, and delighted me with your words.

After you wrote in detail about your departure from the firm for a job at the agency, I started taking a much closer look at gov't positions and took one about one year ago. The change has been wonderful for my health.

I found your blog first as I was contemplating law school and, nearly five years later and a few weeks from graduation from law school, I count myself very lucky to have learned from you and enjoyed your writing over the years. While I will very much miss your posts, I recognize your reasons for putting things on pause right now. I wish you and your beautiful family all the very best!

I started reading your blog somewhere post-Claire, pre-Cora and I've been following intently every since. Thank you so much for what you have given us, you are so open about everything and it is such a breath of fresh air. I am also a Texan <br /> government lawyer-mom (but never commented before) and I always thought maybe that was why I was so drawn to your corner of the internet, but now I know better :) You constantly share the best and worst parts of your life in a way that is relatable to everyone and it is just beautiful. Thank you for just being you. I respect your decision to do what is in you and your family's best interest, even if it is sad for the rest of us. I hope this is just a pause but just in case it isn't, thank you for everything.
