If something huge, massive, amazing, awful, or important happens in your life and you tweet about it any time between 10pm and 8am it doesn't really happen. It's like this saying my Grandmother and Mother used to exclaim when I had a bad dream, "if you tell us about it before breakfast then it won't ...

Thank you guys for such great comments on the post about understanding three. I am mildly annoyed that none of ya'll told me in advance that it was going to be like this. I have a few e-books to read and then I will be back to being the alpha in this parent/child relationship. One thing ...

With the spring and a new month I wanted to try some new things on the blog. You will notice a small sprucing up in the sidebar and 100% more plaid in the design. I also wanted to try out this thing called vlogging. (Video + blogging = vlogging) I like the creative process and I ...

shoebox card for busy moms

Allow me to share with you a dramatic interpretation of how phone calls with friends often go: {RING of cell phone} Me: {leaping across two monster trucks, a pile of plastic blocks and abandoned sippy cups} Where is Mama's phone? {W begins to "help" me look and starts collecting our bajillion tv remotes and driving them to me...} W: ...
