Do you ever find yourself wishing that the road to parenthood came with a map? Or better yet, a guide book? That when you were given that little bundle of joy, you were also handed a book just for them? “Welcome to the world, here is everything you need to know to be the best parent to this...

Last night was a 9th grade event at man-cub’s school. In Davis, Jr High is 7th-9th grade and High School is 10th-12th. This means that he was “big man on campus” for a whole year. What a big campus it was too!
I ran into an old mom-friend I hadn’t seen in a while....

There’s a dinosaur in my purse.
Specifically, it’s a small, red plastic Triceratops, and it’s sharing real estate in a pocket with a slightly fuzzy animal cracker.
I’m not quite sure how I got to this place, where the primary clincher between two purses were pockets...

When your child hurts your feelings, there is nothing like it. No one can wound you faster, strike you harder or leave you more breathless than the one you gave birth to making you feel bad. Sadly, it’s also inevitable. I consider man-cub to be about the best kid in the universe (of...

Big day tomorrow.
April 8 will mark the one year anniversary of my very first blog post.
That’s right, my children’s milestones haven’t been officially recorded in a baby book since first molars came in, but I have shamelessly used them for material here for...

Tomorrow my little “man-cub” turns 15. I never knew fifteen years could go so fast. In honor of him, this is a little “tribute to motherhood” blog.
Motherhood came knocking at my door at a tender age and when I wasn’t sure I was ready. I never...

I usually start my day at about 5:30 in the morning. My goal is to get a few things done before everyone wakes up demanding things. As I slowly peel Milan, (my 2 year old) hands and feet off me(because she crawled into our bed at about 3:00 in the morning ) I race my 11 month old -Khaya to a...

This twenty-somethinger's insight on .....being a new mom.
Motherhood= no more late nightouts with the girls only late night rocking a baby back to sleep, no more hangovers from parties only constant sleep deprivation, no more fun, fancy, sex-in-the-city cocktails in bars only quick n quiet...

Are you Clair Huxtable? The work-a-holic, yet magically always there for your children mom? Are you June Cleaver? Always making everyone’s life easier with that little “I know everything going on” smile? Are you maybe even Morticia Addams? Enthralled and in-love with your...

Or rather; My welcome to the 'Sandwhich Generation'.
Thursday, as I was tied to my phone waiting for two kinds of calls; 1) to know when my mom came out of surgery and how she was and 2) waiting for the hospital to call and tell me where my daughter was in the surgery line-up for Friday, it...

Woohoo! My son ditched the training wheels for good tonight!
I knew he was close so I suggested a trip to the park after dinner. We headed up there with all three kids and their bikes - two without training wheels.
Daughter1 learned a couple weekends ago. She just came up to me...

Every Tuesday morning a group of moms meet with their kids in strollers to walk around McKinley Park. Most of the same moms return to walk each week, along with a few new moms who join in on the fun. This morning as we walked, I realized the importance of the camaraderie we...

Yesterday was my son's 14th birthday. I honestly don't know where the time went. On one hand, it seems like he was just born a few years ago. I remember every moment as if it were just a few breaths away. On the other hand, I can't (and don't want to) remember a time in my life when he wasn't...

I love all of the people and support I get from this site, but to tell the truth, the main reason that I write this blog is so that family far away can keep up to date with what is going on with the family. So tomorrow morning at 5 am, we leave for the hospital so my 3 1/2 yr old can again be put...

I was talking with my hubby tonight about how I just don't think he gets how stressful motherhood is, and I don't mean because we have so much to do. I'm talking on a deeper, heavier level of responsibility weighing on our shoulders. I feel like all day today I was averting disasters so my kids...
