I’m sure that this post is going to strike up some differing opinions and maybe a little heat, but it needs to be discussed. I lie to my kids. I have lied to people I love, when the situation absolutely called for it. Yet, I teach my children that lying is wrong. I am aware that […]
It is becoming an increasing trend for moms to go under the knife, these days. Many women become unsatisfied with their bodies or just parts them, after giving birth. The answer lies in a healthy diet, exercise and sometimes…plastic surgery. There are some things that just cannot be corrected with all the exercise in the world.

Today, my husband and I, celebrate 10 years of marriage….woo hoo! I think it is something to fly to Hawaii for, but my husband says that people who celebrate every piddly anniversary just have low expectations. “What… are they afraid that they won’t be together by their 25th anniversary? That really speaks volumes about their […]
Under any other circumstance, I would admit that as a parent I do suck, but following a lengthy conversation with my kids recently, I am teetering on whether I suck or if it’s other parents that do.

They were being […]
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, “Divorce Sucks.” I was in high school when my parents divorced and it rocked my whole world, in a very emotionally damaging way. I remember, all too vividly, the heart wrenching pain that caused me to cry myself to sleep at night. The memories are so […]
Let’s talk about the idea of family bed sharing. Is it a means to forming strong family bonds or a way to ensure that kids will never sleep in their own beds without a struggle?
In our house, the rule of thumb is that once the kids are weaned to a bottle, they are expected to […]
In response to the recent comment wars between special needs parents and those of us who are being called idiots, I’d like to pose topic that will hopefully get some of us on our way to learning and recognizing the needs of special needs.
So often we hear “treat them normal” by allowing them to do […]
I know that in today’s world, most teens believe they are worth $20 per hour or they aren’t working. In their minds, they’d like to work a full day and go buy an iPod - but in reality - that’s just not going to happen. At least that’s what I told my son. BUT, […]
