The other day in the car I was listening to a favorite song and I sweetly said to my little boy, “Kyle, I dedicate this song to you.” He made a face that was somewhere between looking like he was going to cry or going to get sick. My husband and I laughed. I love […]
Questions
I heard that a child asks an average of 122 questions per day. I have 3 kids. You do the math. And, yes, I am counting the baby. Because although he cannot formulate a real question just yet, there is a question in every “Uh.” as he points his way through his surroundings. I answer […]
Just GO Already!
My kids lie to me on almost a daily, sometimes multiple times a day, basis about one thing. The scene usually goes something like this: I’m sitting at the computer, my 6 year old is on the couch down in the basement with me playing a game. All of a sudden I hear the couch […]
Teaching Kids How to Be Responsible…
If you come here looking for guidance and hope, I’m sorry. None will be found here. This morning I had a couple of things planned. Visitors coming by. Some people from church, a playdate and my landlord (supposedly, although as I write this post he still has not come). So, in my usual Faking Picture […]

Chandler was toddling around the house as I was straightening up. All was well as we were getting ready to go pick Avery up from school. All of the sudden, I […]
I Understand. At Least Some of It.
I was in the bathroom for literally 5 seconds the other day when I hear my youngest toddling around the house yelling, “Maaaaaa Ma! Maaaaaa Ma!” While most times I am in the bathroom taking a moment to myself, I might try to stay as quiet as possible so they don’t find me, I couldn’t […]
Good Life
The wind has been taken out of my sails a little in regard to this blog. But I hope I will get it back. But I think this week I’m going to reflect a little and take a break. I saw this quote yesterday and wanted to share. Since I mostly blog about my hard […]
