Why Can’t I Stop Yelling At My Kids Every Goddamn Bedtime?

October 3, 2017 by Heather Jones 29 Comments

“You’re going to stay in your own bed all night tonight, right?” “Your breath smells like coffee,” my four-year-old replied. The two were not unrelated. My children were terrible sleepers as babies, and they are terrible sleepers now. The oldest complains he can’t sleep until 11 pm, and the … [Read more...]

Just When I Thought I Was Out, My Kids Pull Me Back In

January 20, 2017 by Heather Dixon Leave a Comment

Each day, I roll out of bed in a pretty decent mood. Sure, I may need a large amount of coffee to help me feel ready to face the world. And yes, sometimes I take on life in pajama pants and spend the morning wondering if I’ve brushed my teeth or not, but for the most part, I don’t let it get me … [Read more...]

The Sensitive Child

November 25, 2014 by Sara 1 Comment

We've had a tough spell around here lately. My happy-go-lucky boy has been replaced with a sullen, weepy kid at home and an aggressive, grumpy kid at school. Tales from school were all filled with 'who picked on me' and 'who is mean to me' and 'who doesn't like me.' Exhausting. Seriously. And I feel … [Read more...]

You’re Not Gonna Hear Me Roar!

January 20, 2014 by Sara 4 Comments

It's been about a week. A little over a week. Yup, I'd say that's right. I had an Oprah AHA moment. Over the last few weeks, Will has had some sporadic tantrums. Tantrum almost can't capture what it is that he's doing. His teacher thought that he was going to go into convulsions. His little head … [Read more...]

The September Ass-Kicking

September 10, 2013 by Tracey 10 Comments

We're a mere ten days into this new month, and you can stick a fork in me - I am done. Last night, around 7:20 pm, I followed the sound of sobbing all the way into Ava Scarlett's bed, where the wee one had her face buried in her pink blanket, a complete and total hungry and exhausted … [Read more...]

Motherhood: You’re Doing It Wrong

August 9, 2011 by Amanda

She was on her thirteenth tantrum. It was 9 am. The house was a disaster, but we had left the wake of clutter and dirty dishes behind us in a harried attempt to get my eldest daughter to her day camp on time that morning. All three girls were strapped into their carseats and just as we pulled out of … [Read more...]
