It’s a trip, an offer, a special surprise that I am sure every mother ends up regretting afterwards. The Toys R Us trip. We have done a good job of having Phoenix conditioned to think he’s entitled to a special treat whenever we leave for a date or we go into any kind of store. [...]

I’ll fold the pajames a little bit slower tonight. I’ll linger a little bit longer while I hug you good night. I’ll answer a little bit more when you call out for me. I’ll listen as you spin your tales a little bit more intensely. I’ll walk a little bit more slowly through the park [...]

I spent more time then I should have yesterday watching the last two Twilight movies {New Moon & Eclipse} and did not do any writing. But I did really, really, really enjoy the Twilight movies. I’m not going to be reading the books or becoming a Twi-hard or anything, but I enjoyed them nonetheless. And [...]

Nothing is worse then having to deal with a screaming strong willed 2 1/2 year old… or is there? “16 things that are better then a tantrum.” Also doing business as “16 things you’d rather do then have to sit and listen to a tantrum.” 1. A root canal 2. Kidney stones 3. Having your [...]

I apologize in advance if my writing seems really incoherent & all kinds of grammatically incorrectness. You see I’m kind of triple tasking. I’m writing this. And I am watching the forever adorable & awesome Dumb Mom on What Not To Wear & dying for that blue dress. And trying to nurse my aching body [...]

Shawn & I agree on everything. All the time. We never fight. We never do the silent treatment. It’s always “Yes Dear” and “You know best” 24/7. The only time this is ever broken is when we don’t agree on how to discipline Phoenix. And before you start in on “Well you should have discussed [...]
