There were some challenges that I expected when becoming a mother. I mean, sleep deprivation is a given. I already knew that I’d be a zombie for the better part of the first few months. I wasn’t prepared for it, but I expected it. I’m not sure how I could have prepared for the lack […] Read more…

Wordless Wednesday : Big Boy Edition
I Guess I Was Asking for It
Looking back, I totally set myself up for this. It came naturally. Whenever my son hurt himself, he tells me he has an ow-ee. My response, “where is it?

I’m Watching You

Thank You, Anderson Cooper!
First, I have to say. Thank you all for the well wishes and compliments last week for me. I had come down with some sort of cold, pretending to be the flu. It was not fun! I stayed home from work and just laid around ALL DAY. My dog wasn’t getting it and thought that […] Read more…
Dear Stranger…
Dear Random Stranger, Back away from my child! Right now! I’m not sure why you think it’s appropriate to touch him. I am also not sure why you think it’s not appropriate for him to tell you “no”. He’s a person and he doesn’t know you. Why would he let a stranger touch him? Do […] Read more…
