Welcome Miley Cyrus

My girls are young.  Any exposure they have to pop culture is obviously, introduced by us.  And as overly protective, I have to get this right the first time, all things "out there" will hurt them parents, we probably shield them from too much.

Look What I Reproduced!

I love Christmas cards!  Especially since the kids.  Before kids, my dog and I stared out in a picture taken by my parents on the front lawn of my rent house.  People probably got it, wondered why I did it, and stuck it behind whatever family cards they had received.  With the birth of my [...]

A Male Point of View

The other night, my husband and I had a conversation, we'll say, about what I do around here and how he thinks I can do it better.  He had a myriad of questions for me with solutions that in no way, would ever work in this house.  Instead of being aggravated with him, you know, [...]

The Empathetic Tear

Today started out well.  I actually got up, dressed each child in matching outfits, managed bows in three heads, and headed out the door without coffee, a pop tart, or milk staining my shirt.  Yes, that is the barometer of a good morning!I finally figured out how to get my kids to school and myself to work [...]
