The title of this post might lead you to believe that I’m gonna discuss how to be good to planet Earth. But you’d be WRONG! I don’t really care about the planet. I kid, I kid. I care a little. Ok, so really this is an idea that I picked up from Enna’s blog and [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]

Really, I’m not kidding. Just writing about only ‘an’ embarrassing moment is a challenge. I’ve been blessed with many, many embarrassing moments as gifts from my children, my husband, and life in general!
Here is one I wrote about a year ago now that I’ll share with you again. And since we are one the subject of “feminine products”; [...]
My little Pumpkin is 3 1/2 years old now. She has developed such a personality. Um, yeah, the personality of a DICTATOR. She has taken to ordering us around for EVERYTHING, anything, and even the most ordinary of things. Like how we should all sit at the restaurant table for the birthday dinner of my [...]
I’m your mother, not your friend. I will forever remember this statement made by my stepmom. You have plenty of friends, she’d tell me, your mother is not your friend. I didn’t totally agree with it at the time & I don’t think I agree with it now. My own mom was more in [...]
On the advice of this highly intelligent lady, who has re-implemented writing prompt Monday, I am writing about ME (as in a MOM) today. Although I do have to say that it probably should have read ‘Back to Me’ since the point is to remember that I am a woman, an individual, and NOT just a [...]
