Wherein I whine about time going by quickly and my kids getting older but what else is new?
Life moves pretty fast. But I’m sure that isn’t news to any of you. We are coming to the end of another school year. 6 days and counting down. And while I am really happy about it on the one hand (not having to get the gremlins to school so damn early in the morning, [...]

Growing up fast
I feel as if I am constantly trying to slow down my Honey bunny. What do I mean? She’s growing up, getting bigger, becoming a young lady, and I’m doing just about everything in my power to make sure she doesn’t grow up too fast. Is it wrong of me? Maybe. Do I think it’s [...]

What is it inside that sparks the jealousy and desire to steal parental attention?And why does it happen even when the parents try to provide equal attention to both children?What is inside one child [...]

Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream, or at least less arguing at bedtime
Bedtime is such a pleasant time in our household. Bwhahahahahaha. No, not really. It is, and I’m sure this comes as no surprise to you, a challenge. As it probably is in your household as well. I’m guessing. But I suppose I could be wrong. Maybe it’s a breeze for you. If it is, then [...]

Random Tandem
I don’t know what the hell the title means, either. I just felt like rhyming I guess. Because tandem by definition means: one following or behind the other and that doesn’t have anything to do with this post. So moving on now… My “baby” turned 4 yrs old yesterday and I was all set to [...]

So busy I do not know whether I am coming or going
Yeah, hi! So I don’t know about you but I’ve been so swamped that I seriously don’t know which way is up. It seems like every single blessed day is jam packed with so much activity. And the last couple weeks were the worse, worst, worstest? Between getting ready to go to Las Vegas, coming [...]

Homework and the restless, whining, avoidance child
This is one of those, ‘I’m SO not prepared for this’ posts. I just want to bang my head on the table in frustration. She refuses to listen to my suggestions, argues with me about what the teacher wants, and just generally whines about the HORRIBLENESS of homework. Plus, she’s whining about being tired (avoidance). [...]

I’m playing the single mom this week or better known as these kids are going to kill me and it’s only Tuesday
The husband and I do a fairly decent job of dividing up tasks related to the children. Well, all tasks if you get right down to it. So when he has to go out of town for any reason & for any length of time it throws the whole system out of whack. It’s not just me that feels [...]
