My daughter recently discovered that frenzied panic experienced by a woman who has lost something that is oftentimes more important than her car keys, favorite lipstick or (gasp!) most comfortable bra. Her purse. I have made no apologies for my unnatural but ever-so-real infatuation with purses. I always have to be carrying one and covet […]
Giving My Money Away
As some of you may know, I recently went away for a night with my girlfriends, all of us in dire need of a little rest and relaxation. So, naturally, after settling in to our hotel room,we headed out to the nearest casino! I’m really not much of a gambler, in all honesty, but the […]
Valentine’s Day
So, how did you celebrate Valentine’s Day? Was it a holiday filled with love, passion and romantic notions? Were there roses and little chocolate hearts gracing your bed pillow? Did your sweetheart whisper sweet-nothings into your ear pledging his or her undying devotion, romantic music playing in the background? Yeah, mine was almost like that. […]
A Little Much Needed R&R…
Happy Friday friends! It has been quite a week around here and I couldn’t be any more ready for the weekend. Being a stay-at-home mom, often the end of the week merely blends right in with the working days andall a Friday, Saturday and Sunday mean to me is no guilt when I send the […]
My Prayers Have Finally Been Answered
Shhh. Can you hear that? Yep, you got it. It’s the angels singing, rejoicing a true miracle hereon Earth.And if you listen real closely you’ll hear a whimsical tinkling, porcelain music to my soul. The sound of my son not peeing his pants. Hallelujah! I feel like this moment has been a long time coming. […]
Happy Birthday Angel!
Wow. Today my little missy turns 7 years old. It’s bittersweet and excitement all wrapped up into one sweet little birthday package. I recognize that Avery is only one day older than she was yesterday buttoday feels very different. You always hear the cliche, “I swear it was just yesterday that…” Honestly, I wouldn’t necessarily […]
Top Five “What the Heck” Google Searches…part 2
Last week, I posted a few of the strangest (and someslightly disturbing) keywords searched on Google resulting in random visits to my blog. It has yet tocease to amaze me that 1) not only are people searching for somepretty off-the-wall results, but 2) somehow the ‘brain’ at Google connects them to me. Now, I’ve been […]
Mama Bear
I had an interesting thing happen today which caused my baser instinct to come roaring through my otherwise gentile personality. Ahem. What? My daughter, Avery, is in the first grade and attends public school. Every morning I pick out her clothes because if her daily ensemble were up to her she’d probably wear her ripped […]
A Child’s Dreams
I remember the first time I realized that Avery had started dreaming. One morning I was standing in the kitchen making breakfast when Avery toddled out from bed, her tiny little 3 year-old body hunched over from an obvious fretful night of sleep. “What’s up little lady?” I asked. “Where’s all my bayoons?” Avery asked,looking […]
My dog has issues.
I’ve recently been presented with a new situation that is slightly concerning. This situation is unchartered territory for me and at this point I’m not entirely sure what steps I should be taking to avoid this complication. You see… My dog is scared of my exercise pants. Due to the extensive rain and colder weather […]
