Kyle: Mommy, I forgot to tell Daddy that I wanted to get you a new make-up bag for mother’s day. Me: Oh. Well, you better not tell me because then I will find out. You better remember to tell Daddy. I so don’t need a new make-up bag. But, find it freaking adorable that my […]
Mom Vs. Kids, It’s All A Matter of What You Hear
I ran across this hilariousness yesterday and could really relate. But, decided the list needed a few more. Here are what my kids tend to hear when it’s not exactly what comes out of my mouth. Mom Vs. Kids– It’s all a matter of what you hear. What I say: “Why don’t you go play […]
Real. Not Perfect.
I remember being a kid and always worrying about what other people thought. I remember not being able to go to sleep before all my dresser drawers were shut. (OCD much?) I remember getting up in the middle of the night and going through a dark house at a very young age and checking that […]
I’m a Mormon. Yes I am.
I’m a mormon. Some of you know this about me. If you don’t, I wasn’t hiding it. It is in my about me page, after all. In my life, frequently I’ve been accused of being a “cool” mormon. Or, not being “like the other mormons.” I have a lot of non-mormon friends that are very […]
My Children Are Saving Me Thousands in Therapy.
Since we all know that my blog is “awesome” just the way it is, I think I will get back to my regularly scheduled programming after being FP’d. First though, I have to say welcome new followers! I’m not sure what you guys will think about my rants on motherhood, and my constant complaining about […]
Even the Armpit Can Be Beautiful.
I really love my house. I don’t own it. I rent it. But, I love it just the same. It was built in 1926. It is charming. Arched doorways, and built in shelves, and it’s even called a “bungalow”. Sounds fancy, right? I have a stained glass window on my front door. It’s just plain […]
I’m Not a Runner. But, I Know What it Feels Like to Race.
When you’re a mom, you know what it feels like to race. As soon as your feet hit the floor in the morning, you are in it to win it. Every minute is accounted for. Every second counts. At 6:30 am, I hear a cough and a cry. I race to the next room. It’s […]
I Have to Stop
I wrote a post yesterday and just didn’t like it. So, I didn’t publish it. I felt “off” all day, and couldn’t figure it out (besides the horrendous lack of sleep from the night before where I was literally woken up 7 times by both human and non-human creatures). But, aside from the lack of […]
Mini Straight Jackets
Yesterday my kids had a fun afternoon entertaining themselves by wearing their jackets backwards and putting things in the hoods of their jackets. Whatever keeps them entertained, I say. They were having fun, and things got a little disturbing when they turned them into this. But, hey, I’ll say it again. Whatever works. It made […]
