Hm… I have never used 3 hashtags in my title! That was fun! It’s a FUN day! First of all, I haven’t been blogging much over the past couple months. That has to do with a few things. I have had some ups and downs in my personal life, but I’ve also been waist deep […]
The Day My Son Pooped in the Front Yard and Blamed it on the Neighbor
Y’all. Probably the funniest story I have of my sweet boy happened when he was about five years old. He was just old enough that I was allowing him to run back and forth between our neighbor’s house on his own to play with the neighbor, who was also five. But, here’s the problem. As […]
Lice, lice baby!
She howled out as I tugged, perhaps a little too viciously, on the tiny little lice catching comb. She wriggled and tried to escape me, but I held on tight. Through gritted teeth I muttered some kind of threat on her well being if she did not sit there and take it like a four-year-old. […]
The Terrible, No Good, Rotten First Day of Kindergarten
It’s about time for school to start again, and I’m reminiscent of my son’s first very-bad-day of Kindergarten. The Terrible, No Good Rotten first day of Kindergarten. He never wanted to go back… thankfully that changed eventually. Jelly Bean, the five-year-old, starts Kindergarten this year. Here’s hoping I don’t have to write another post! 🙂 […]
8 Ways I Wish My Kids Were More Like Cats
Despite the title, I am not some kind of crazy cat lady. I don’t even have a cat. But I did. And those were glorious days. At least as I remember them. Now I have three young children and a rambunctious puppy, who once set our kitchen on fire. Often I find myself thinking back […]

My daughter will not be less successful because I stay at home
I’m going to try to calm myself down right now. I’m irritated by the latest study I heard about that will just further wedge a divide between moms who work and moms who don’t. A new study by Harvard University claims that children, particularly girls, who have mothers that work will be more likely to […]
Total Reset Required
Back when I worked in the military and in law enforcement, we talked about “mission creep.” You’ve got a job to do, and slowly, but surely, people keep adding on to your job until you’re so swamped with ancillary stuff, you can hardly get your real job done. You forget what you’re supposed to be […]
You Are Enough…
We hear those words, and yet, it’s often really hard to digest them. You are enough. You ARE enough. How often as a mom do you beat yourself up? I should have … I could have … I didn’t … I blew it … Did I make the right choice? It’s so easy to compare […]

Balancing as a mother and as a “me”
To me, the hardest part about motherhood is how much of ME I feel like I have had to give up. That sounds petty and selfish and just wrong… but I know that I’m not alone when I say I miss the freedoms I had before children. I miss being on my own schedule, going […]
