My cousin teased me a bit when I went to FB asking my friends for tips on surviving my 5 year old’s upcoming tonsillectomy. I asked, “Any advice from anyone that’s gone through this?” She teased me because I was asking FB even though I’m married to a health professional. I told her that I […]
The I’m Too Tired to Write a Post for Manic Mondays
The past 5 days have been crazy. My 5 year old had his tonsils and adenoids removed along with tubes put in his ears. I’m too drained and tired to write the post I need to write about it….I do want to share some tips for other parents that have to go through this, but […]
Be Brave. Do Something Uncomfortable.
I love, love, LOVE this post by Shannon from Orangon.com. Sometimes, I have a hard time adding extra things to my plate as a Mom, but I’ve realized that when I do, I learn and grow. That takes bravery. Her blog is super inspiring too. It is about helping others live a healthier life, and […]
Simple Salmon Cakes
I LOVE this recipe I’m sharing today. We had it this past weekend for dinner, and all 3 kids ate it, it took me 30 minutes to whip up, and it’s EASY. Meets all of my requirements. If you are looking to get your kids used to eating fish, this might be a recipe to […]
The Founder of Mother’s Day Later Renounced It. And Other Reasons to Let the Handmade Card Be Enough.
Did you know the founder of Mother’s Day was never a mom herself? It’s true. Not only was she never a mother, but by the time she actually got people to approve mother’s day 6 years after she started trying, she turned around and renounced the holiday. It had become too commercialized even for her […]
Motherhood Means Becoming Slightly More Comfortable with the Chaos.
My guest post today comes from Moira (which, don’t you just love that name??) who shares her journey of becoming a mom. Like many of us, it didn’t happen how she thought it would. She is brave because she took the step to adopt even though she wasn’t perfect. GASP! Can you believe it? I […]
Why All Companies Should be Marketing to Preschoolers
I remember the first time my middle child recognized a company from a commercial. We were driving through a mall parking lot and he said, “Look Mommy!! Sears!!” with a lot of excitement. I was confused. I don’t think I had stepped into Sears to shop for anything for years. Except maybe for that time […]
Why Moms are Probably The Worst Drivers on the Road. But, We Can’t Help It.
One thing I know for sure, is that I have a tiny bit of road rage. I’m not the pull a gun on you type, but I like to yell things. Mormony-non-swearing type things. Call people idiots. Stupid. Honk. I really like to honk. The problem is, my kids are with me 99.9% of the […]
Growing Empathy
My guest post today comes from Rivki. A mom of 3 kiddos 5 and under. I know, right? Can you say one busy mama? She’s given me support as she pops in and leaves me comments, and she has a lot faith. That’s something I admire! I love her perspective on how motherhood has made […]
