More About The Queendom

Here is the scoop on the Queendom!
IT'S GOOD TO BE THE QUEEN: AN INTERNET PARTY FOR MOMS OF BOYS

In spring of 2002, Linda Marie Ford invited other Lakewood moms of boys to a Sunday brunch to celebrate being the Queens of their households. After the coronations, the Queens exchanged “You-will-never-believe-what-my-son-did” stories, tips for parenting and ways to get play doh out of carpets. They reassured each other that – yes, it is hard to be the only source of estrogen in the house and vowed to get together often. In February of 2003 Ford took to the internet and launched www.itsgoodtobethequeen.com . The High Tea and Toddys party to mark the occasion was covered by The Dallas Morning News. The resulting feature story was re-printed in papers across the country and led to coverage in the May 2004 issue of Ladies’ Home Journal, the October 2004 issue of Pregnancy magazine and the August 2006 issue of Dallas Child. Fellow Queens receive Queen Linda’s Weekly Address via email which features tales of life in Ford’s castle, son taming ideas and boy stories sent in from the over 3,700 registered Queens around the world. Queens can also take advantage of the active message board as well as start a formal chapter, purchase party boxes and pampering gifts.
