Apparently I need to work on my annunciation. We have been praying with the kids at dinner time and at bedtime. Tonight before bed we were all together and I asked if anyone wanted to pray. My 4 year old son started out by saying, “Dear Laura…” My daughter chimed in with “Dear Norm.” Perhaps [...]

Why is it that kids fight the things that adults appreciate the most – namely eating and sleeping? I have to bribe, beg, and push the kids to eat and sleeping requires a great deal of negotiations, too. I WISH someone said to me, “You need to eat more.” or “I think it’s time for [...]

I have to admit that I am a Halloween-junkie and am perhaps saturated with ideas often portrayed in scary movies hence my blog topics… Tonight, I was chasing after my 18 month old.

I can’t be that mad at my son. I wasn’t watching him close enough. Long story short, he came up to me and said, “Mommy, smell my legs.” I recognized the smell, but I couldn’t place it. When I asked him to show me, he brought me my very expensive Lancome face moisturizer. Thankfully, this [...]

Here’s a funny thing my 3 year old said today… We were having a dance party in the living room listening to Black Box “Everybody Everybody”. If you remember the song (who doesn’t remember this song?), you’ll know that the word “Oww” is used throughout. Well, my husband was singing along, but my son got [...]

I’m not sure of the dwelling habits of the average troll, but in my mind, I see them creeping around at night. They have a purpose, but to an outsider they may look like they are confused and a little out of sorts. This is my family circa 3:30 in the morning. Between the 2 [...]

When my little girl was very little she spit up a lot. So much so that we kind of nicknamed her “Chunks.” Gross, right? Thankfully, she outgrew that and life has been good. Sadly, the gross-ness of motherhood hasn’t left our house yet. Here are just a few of the nasty things that I’ve lived [...]
