Crafty Countdown To Christmas

I'm addicted to Etsy.com. Quite often many of the beautiful crafts I see on Etsy, I decide that I can make them myself so I end up rarely purchasing them (and embarking on the long, arduous task of figuring out how to recreate the craft myself. Recently I saw a great…

New Beginning!

I am so excited! My job was eliminated on November 17th! To some this

may come as devastating news. For me, it was music to my ears. Besides

giving me the opportunity to leave a job I didn't like and was

miserable in for the last 4 years, now my dream of becoming a

work-at-home mom is a reality. I simply love my new schedule. I get to

take the kids to school. Then I come home and start working at about

9:00... feet up, tv on, jammies on, laptop on lap. I take… Continue

Nostalgic Yes...Ungrateful No.

Who In The Heck Is Santa Claus?

Who in the heck is Santa Claus and why is he the one that gets all of the credit? I'm one of those "new age" mommies. I have long discussions with my 5 year old son, I let him know that his opinion is always valid, but, of course, not as valid as mine. I believe that a lie is a lie and it is a written law that it can not happen in our house, or, there will be a "time out". So, given the fact that I have made this rule, law, how can I in good conscious teach my son about this overweight…

Dog Wellness - Left Over Turkey Treats

Of all the meats available for consumption turkey is the healthiest of them all - mainly because it is lower in fat. What a great treat it is for us and our dogs when we get to enjoy turkey left overs for the entire week or longer. Grab hold of a healthy snack for your dog and at the same time envelope dog wellness practices by making his treats at home instead of store bought - for a… Continue

Pray About It: Inspiration For Mommies

"Any concern too small to be turned into a prayer is too small to be made into a burden." Corrie Ten Boom

Becoming a stay at home mom part four....

Jay blew into our lives like a whirl wind. He was my cousin’s fiancé’s cousin (kinda confusing, I know) and we met because my cousin lived in the apartment upstairs from me.

We started talking slowly – my car got stuck in the snow a few times and he would come down and get me out.

Then we started actually hanging out, and the first time he came over, we talked nonstop for 4 hours! It was great. I was actually happy when I was with him, and I felt so…

There is Nothing Worse...

... than changing your baby's diaper - just so she can poop in it.

... than cleaning your entire kitchen - only to have the kids request a snack that requires your kitchen to become unclean.

Odd Mom Out

I was a little snotty with the assistant principal at “K’s” parent-teacher conference last night. The middle school was alive with activity parents and students were all over the school meeting with teachers, signing up for after-school activities and having photos taken for what I don’t even know. I don’t know because none of that activity had anything to do with me or my child.

My child is a beautiful 13-year-old girl who wears diapers, speaks in two-word phrases at most and arrives… Continue

Sweet Dreams

One of the sweetest things “K” does is at bedtime. After we’ve given her a shower, put on her p.j.’s, tucked her into bed and, of course, given her a kiss good night, she will pat the bed next to her, smile at whichever one of us is putting her down, and say “here”. She won’t stop until you lay down next to her.

It’s a tight squeeze on her twin bed with her, me, multiple pillows and a large stuffed Blue doll. Usually my head is resting on Blue’s foot and my legs are hanging off the… Continue

Happy Ending

My husband was putting “J” down to bed the other night. I had already said good night and hugged and kissed him and was downstairs folding laundry or putting away the dishes or performing some other evening chore, I’m not sure which and I lost track of how long the two of them had been upstairs when my husband called for me on the stairs. “Can you come help me with?” he asked.

Something must be wrong; I could hear the stress in my husband’s voice. I scurried to the stairs and asked,… Continue
