Are you the kind of mommy who stares blankly at your stroller and asks herself, “Why can’t the manufacturer put a built in bottle warmer on this contraption?” Or maybe you already have a product, but lack the funds to make it into a bonafide company. If this sounds like you, then get excited, because […]
It boils my blood to read stories like this one, about the two women from Calgary, Canada. I’m not pissed because they are successfully running a baby prep business for expecting parents. No, I’m really very happy for them. I’m only kicking myself for not doing it before they did. I opened a blog, awhile […]
One of the ways I like to teach the kids to show gratitude, is by having them make end of the year gifts for their teachers and the school staff. Teachers are the hardest working and worst paid professionals, I’ve ever met. Most of them, bring work home with them, spend lots of their own […]
…a little too easy, if you ask me. Many parents see their child’s summer break as a cessation of learning. The summer days are often spent on vacation, lazing about the house or whining about how boring life is. While there is definitely a portion of the break that should be used for these three […]
Good morning! Please indulge me a few minutes of your Sunday so that I might shed light on a topic that our society has forgotten. The topic is compassion.

What it the craziest thing that you have ever done to protect your children? How about when it comes to dating?

But try keeping a child who has ADHD and is recovering from an injury, down for a few days. It is a feat that requires some very creative thinking! During the past few days, I’ve had to keep my son home while he recovered from last Friday’s dog attack. Getting my son to sit still […]
Our family has embarked on a journey from Ingrate-opolis to Gratitude-ville, in order to slay the terrible greed dragon that has taken my children captive. Our next stop along the trip, Routine-Valley seems to be the most difficult terrain. Breaking the vicious cycle of the gimmes and never enough mentality, is proving to be more […]
Not everyone can go to great lengths like I did with a flooded basement that encourages everyone in the house to pick up, clean up and get organized, so when you can’t count on Mother Nature, who can you count on?
Father Time perhaps?

Starbucks tests $1 cup of coffee
Free refills are also on tap as the Seattle coffee giant responds to increased competition and braces for an economic slowdown that could blunt consumer spending. (The Wall Street Journal)
Three cheers for Starbucks! Hip, hip, hoo…what? Surely they can’t be serious! Are they really selling their delicious white chocolate mochas […]
