For years I have been doing what all mother's have done everywhere- On the first day of school I have taken pictures of my children on our doorstep or front lawn on their way to a new year of school. I have also always gone in to wake them up with (and they have told me they love this) "Good … [Read more...]
Do You Know Your Birth Story??
I'm 44 today. I have no issue with it. I didn't mind turning 30 or 40. The milestones don't mean a lot to me. My age only freaks me out when I think about my parents when they were 44. They were OLD. Please! I will say this. I feel better, younger, fitter, more settled....happier....at 44 … [Read more...]
Help! What Do I Need to Clean This Spring?!
I bought my first house about 10 years ago. It was around the corner from where I am now. I loved it. I loved it until one night, I was trapped inside. Urban wildlife. Possums were on the roof of my garage, a skunk family took up under my porch and a godforsaken raccoon was humping my back … [Read more...]
Helloooo… Where Are you??
Most of the time on here I talk about Will. Our ups and downs. The ridiculous (did I tell you he 'hellllooo'ed' me last week?) and the sweet. Sometimes I talk about my family, or my mom, or the things I'm grateful for. Or my fave, people who really piss me off. It also feels like once a year, … [Read more...]

Dinos and Mario and Monster Trucks Oh MY!
I wanted a boy. I've told you this before. It's no secret. I always considered myself a tomboy and thought what the hell would I do if I had a girl? The day I found out Will was a boy was a happier day for me than when I found out I was pregnant. Seriously. That's when I cried tears of joy … [Read more...]
My Daddy’s a Rockstar!!!
I don't obsess over Will not having a dad. It's funny. You know what you know and since he's never had one, this is our normal. Frankly, besides Father's Day or when Will is doing something particularly annoying (which he couldn't POSSIBLY have inherited from me), I don't really think about his … [Read more...]
thankful that when people leave they come back
We have a family tradition of saying what we are thankful for on Thanksgiving. It is often funny, frequently tender and always a good thing to do. My oldest came home after 5 weeks away at first year University for the long weekend. I loved having her close so much. When it was my turn to say … [Read more...]
Why Do I Blog?
I get this question a ton. I also get the 'your son is going to be so pissed when he reads all that you've shared on the internet'. I got a charming email once accusing me of being self-centered, selfish and thinking the world revolves around me (hello pot calling....). Maybe writing a blog is a … [Read more...]
And there it was…
Monday morning 6:30 am. He wakes up as he does everyday full of random stats about animals. Mommy. Did you know the most dangerous animal is the elephant? bumble bee? great white shark? Really Will? Amazing!! Mommy. Did you know woolly mammoths used to live where it's cold but now they … [Read more...]
