My thought is that it’s inevitable. At some point most little girls develop this love for a baby doll. My daughter is no different. She is absolutely over the moon about her “baby”. She won’t give “baby” a name. I suggested naming here Jasmine. She looked at me and said, “no, BABY”. Her little face […] Read more…

What I’m Feeling Friday – Let’s Dance!
I have this relationship with music. I always have. I love it! I listen to every note, every background vocal, every instrument. When I hear something I like, you can be sure that I’m listening to it over and over again! I have been sharing my love of music with my kids. From jazz to […] Read more…
Mirror, Mirror
I wish someone had told me how much I’d learn from my kids. Then again, maybe not. I’m enjoying the surprise of my babies being my teachers. I have found that I have learned more about me from being a wife and a mother. I’ve learned my good and my bad. It’s like having a […] Read more…
Somehow, we ended up on a boat…
I am tired. That about sums up how I feel after this weekend. It was a pretty laid back weekend, I guess. There wasn’t a whole lot of our usual shenanigans.

I am sick. I have the cooties. It sucks. This stoopid, yes stoopid cold virus is going around my family and it finally took me down. I feel like crud. It really kicks in how good it is to feel well when I’m sick. I’m so looking forward to this cold moving it’s way on […] Read more…
The School Blues
Just over four years ago, I gave birth to my first child. Recently, I toured yet another school that could be his elementary school. As I walked around the campus, I was a little bit overwhelmed. So much so that I didn’t take pictures. That’s saying a lot. As a blogger, I take pictures of […] Read more…
I think they’re listening
We went out to lunch this past weekend. After sitting my daughter in her high chair, she picked up a napkin and attempted to tuck it into her shirt – making herself a bib. We looked at each other and said maybe we eat out too much. This kid is not new to this. I […] Read more…
