Bell On Heels

If you are going to be the mother of four, do it in great shoes.

The Great Red Pen Debacle Of 2013

by

Well I survived, but just barely. My third child had his preschool graduation last night. Yes, in case you are unaware, that is a thing now. Just another thing they do to try and torture us. I am convinced that teachers get together and brainstorm ways to make us moms cry. What is wrong with […]

Sleep Is Highly Overrated Anyway

by

Rest while you can my sweet angel. Rest.While.You.Can. Why do women keep secrets from other women? We are supposed to be a sisterhood. None of you told me what would become of my bladder after childbirth. No one warned me that almost the exact day that I turned 40, my once supple face, would begin […]

To My Only Daughter

by

As a mother of four, it is easy to lump all my kids into one mass. With four it takes a lot of work for them to ever get individualized attention. It is usually more about me trying to stay on top of the chaos. Last night I found myself looking through old photos. My […]

When Can A Mom Relax?

by

I want to have a relaxing Sunday morning sometimes. There is only one problem. I am not wired to relax. Ever. My inability to relax actually drives me mad. I don’t understand what has happened to me. I remember being able to relax once upon a time. The older I get the harder it becomes […]

Zazoo Kids Clock: This Could Be Love

by

Well it is finally happening. My first product review. I was contacted by a company called Zazoo Kids. Someone there had stumbled upon MY blog and felt they had a product, that was a perfect fit for my family. I won’t lie, I was thrilled. I had only been blogging for a couple of months. […]

Teaching My Children To Be Adults, Is Not Easy

by

I have a pretty good life. I won’t lie. My husband works hard so I can be a stay at home mom to my kids. It is exactly where I want to be, at this point in my life. Although, if there was another life after this one, and if I had to choose another […]
