I got the "why are you looking for trouble?" comment too, but I knew in my gut there was something going on. Trust your mommy instinct...it will not lead you wrong! You are a great Mom who is advocating for her child!
Who's Afraid Of A Big Bad Label?
A mother knows. Nobody else may notice, nobody else may see the same things, but a mother knows when something isn't quite....right...with her child. I can't recall when I first thought my son was a bit quirky. I don't remember what first made me wonder if something was going on in that littl...
Our friends just took their kids to Italy and had a blast! They especially loved Pompeii where the kids got to climb a volcano.
Greece was the Word
Two kids. A post office with just one passport line. Two hours in said line. Three hundred dollars, several signatures, and a few wallet size photos with fake smiles emblazoned on our proof of citizenship for the next five years. We had big plans to go to Greece this summer. Athens. Mykonos. ...
I still have my first babydoll too! Even though my son owns a Leapster, Nintendo DS & Playstation 2, he really has very little interest in them. He would much rather be outside playing and running around. Sometimes, I wish he WOULD play with them so I can make a phone call or finish a chore, but I guess there is plenty of time for that.
Ditching Dolls For DSL
If you're of the female persuasion, chances are you played with dolls as you grew up. You probably fed them, changed them, and rocked them while singing a lullaby. You might have read to them or toted them around with you as you went about your day. As you got older, you probably traded in the...
I avoid playgroups too! Usually, I just think they are too big. They overwhelm the kids and the moms. I think a small group of 3 or 4 kids is the best kind.
Fearing Playgroups
I avoid playgroups. I admit it. I know that I have two young children and that I am responsible for helping them cultivate friendships and expose them to new people and surroundings. The importance of socializing children is not something beyond me, and yet I find myself hesitating in joining ...
Erica - that's a great idea to start a Wellness Committee. I stumbled upon this link on one of the forums: http://www.slowfoodusa.org/timeforlunch
Food is a Battlefield
I have been part of a wonderful group of about eight mothers for the past few years. We met in a playgroup when our children were young, and now we keep up mainly online and in a few monthly get-togethers. One of the moms passed on information about Jamie Oliver's new show that was starting la...
Amen to this post. Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life!
The Fragrance of the Roses
Have you ever ended a day that was so incredibly hectic you can't quite remember all that you did, but you know you are completely exhausted? It would seem that this is the mantra of most parents. Between working full time, homework, extra-curricular activities, trying to keep up with the h...
I LOVE THIS POST!! Man, my house was like yours this week, and I'm not even a WAHM, just a SAHM. I told my mom - There is NO way one person (me) can get everything done around here. I just can't do it. She said "but you're doing it."
Paradise Lost. And Gained.
This song has been ringing in my ears lately. I know there must be a message in that ear worm. Why else would Charlene be crooning in my ears? "Hey lady, you lady cursing at your life you're a discontented mother and a regimented wife I've no doubt you dream about the things you never do" I'm...

I saw an interview with Heidi, and she said she wanted "H" size boobs because "H" is for Heidi. Sigh... I have conflicting opinions about plastic surgery - we'll have to discuss sometime.
Leopards and Boob Jobs and Bears, Oh My!
Why does everyone want to be something they are not? My daughter has a bear that is dressed in a leopard costume. And there’s the line in “Best in Show” where a frantic Parker Posey tries to find her dog’s busy bee toy and is appalled when she is presented with a substitute: “No, that's a be...
Paralyzed is exactly how I feel sometimes too. Great post - thanks for sharing your story!
The Insidious Disease of Depression
For a long time now it seems that nothing has gone right for me, or for my family. My husband and I suffer from chronic illnesses that prevent us from maintaining full-time jobs. That causes a variety of issues to follow: how do we continue living on our savings and freelance income that ...
