You might want to sit down for this announcement, friends: we have never been to Disney World.* I know, I know. Seems shockingly impossible. My poor culturally-deprived children will be accepting any and all sympathy cards and extra Halloween candy as condolences–but only for the next few months because here’s the bigger announcement: we are going […]
The Surprise Element
At my very ripe old age of 36, I feel like there’s not much about my day-to-day that could surprise me. The laundry/dish-washing/yearning for ginormous quantities of coffee to power me through my day is a routine set pretty solidly in stone. Even the more exciting events, like driving the minivan into the garage door and […]
Trick-or-Treating with Autism
Guess what, readers? It’s Halloween time! I know, I know. I really do my best here at Mom of the Year to keep you up-to-date with breaking news-worthy happenings. In any case, if you didn’t know, Halloween is going down in 8 days. In my naively innocent, pre-kid days filled with fanciful things like being […]
The School Bus Dilemma
Once in a while, I do crazy things, like attempting to vlog. I know, it makes no sense to me either. Really, some people just don’t belong in front of a camera. Like me. Aside from my raging awkwardness, complete with multiple “ums”, excessive hand gestures and inexplicable eye closing, technology is not something with […]
Sweeten Up on Sweetest Day!
Happy Sweetest Day, friends! Yup, that’s today! What is Sweetest Day? It’s a day set aside in the United States to celebrate romance and love in our lives, with gifts, cards, and most often, candy. Basically it’s a day to celebrate sweetness with sweets! Now, we know my battle with the scale is never-ending, but listen, a […]
Win Big with a Solution to Snotty!
Winter is coming! And even if you aren’t a Game of Thrones fan, this is still enough to make even the best of moms shudder with a sense of foreboding. Winter brings colds…and all the snotty fun that goes with them. The good news for you? Boogie Wipes is giving away a one year supply […]
Organize the Chaos Like a Mom of the Year
When I picture myself, I envision a wake of chaos flailing behind me as I stumble and fumble from one daily task to the next, usually a decent ten minutes late–for everything. You know how in Peanuts Pig-Pen was always followed by a cloud of dirt? That’s me. Except my cloud involves stupidly popped tires, lots of […]
Happy Mom of the Year Award to YOU!
Happy 4 year blogiversary to me! What the heck is a blogiversary, you ask? It’s the annual high-five acknowledging you dedicated another year of your life to the thriving world behind a computer screen, justified by a logic that no one but a fellow blogger can appreciate. And maybe my dog, who remains thrilled I spend so much time in […]
There’s a Handbook for That
One of the trickiest parts of motherhood for me has always been the persistent question pounding through my sleep-deprived brain, “Am I doing this right?” Sure, there are friends you can ask. If you’re lucky, really good friends who can help you tackle the tough, private stuff, but still, doubt can continue to thunder on… The truth is, […]
My Toilet Paper Crush
As a blogger, I often get requests to check out a product I’m not familiar with, but when Scott® Brand asked if I’d be interested in sharing news of their new Scott® 1100 rolls of toilet paper with you, I was all “I know that toilet paper!”. You see, there are a few things I feel firmly about on […]
