    “Patience Iago”

    You can do it, I know. Zip your coat, buckle your seat belt, brush your teeth, wash yourself, go through every item you own twice to pick out the perfect outfit (a rainbow leotard over leopard stockings with jean shorts, a purple cardigan and polka dot rain boots), you can do it all! Mommy believes in you 🙂 But, what happens when I need it done in less than 20 minutes? What happens when your sister needs to be to gymnastics at 4 and your brother basketball practice at, well would you look at that, he needs to be there at 4 too, and I need to shop for dinner…

    “I’ve Got Glitter In My Panties” And 6 Other Phrases That Don’t Mean What You Think They Do

    “I’ve got glitter in my panties!” No, there was not a party in my pants, although, that would have made for an amusing story 10 years ago. No, there was a crafting extravaganza that went south paw and once the girls were done hashing it out, over who’s pony picture had the prettier applique of sparkle, somehow I ended up wearing the aftermath in my underwear. “I slept like a baby” I slept like MY baby; who doesn’t quite sleep at all but rather, is sound for about an hour then begins to yell, not scream, not cry, yell, something like a donkey, until he grapples my breast into submission…

    Missed the bus

    Fridays roll around and the girls rarely make it on the bus. Even rarelier do I care! ( yeah I know that’s not a word, my spell check is all over that 😉 ) It’s Friday, chill out!!! <iframe width=”854″ height=”480″ src=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/b6rOhnZ7ORg” frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe>  There are mornings when I have everything in order the night before and everything runs smooth like butter. Then there are mornings where we’re doing a mad dash, someone’s teeth don’t get brushed, someone’s take home folder, or snack, or beanie boo doesn’t make their bag and they barely make it on the bus; by barely I mean we’re chasing it down the street :-\ Well,…

    Judgy Wudgy Was A Bear

    Judgey Wudgey was a bear but, she should never ever be another mama! I’ve become a bit of a watcher; I am fascinated by mothers. If you ever catch me staring, I am harmless I promise; I just find mamas amazing. How we do what we do, day in and day out is incredible and if you’re reading this and you don’t know, YOU are amazing! While I enjoying watching mamas in action, though, it breaks my heart to watch one mother judging another. I’ve seen the looks and heard the comments and I am standing up to say, It stops here! We all are in a different place, physically,…
