OneDay Valentine Stars
My kids are at really cute ages. So many times I wish I could bottle up their 5 yr.old-ness and 3 yr. old-ness and keep it forever. Not saying they won’t do cute things in the years to come, but I find it pretty magical when my son explains the reason his girlfriend likes him […]
The Mom that You Are
I’m not shy about not being particularly good at this kid thing. I love mine, of course. And sometimes I even enjoy kids’ activities and playdates, but in general, I’m a flop at understanding what to do with the younger set. This bothers me. It’s the kind of thing you feel weird discussing with others, because […]
When a Mommy Is Cool
Let me be clear: I am not cool. I have never been cool. Nope, I’m solidly of the band-geek variety. Even in my 30s, which is impressive, as I haven’t picked up an instrument in about 15 years. But while I’m sitting over here, stewing in my own nerdiness, I realize that I am uncool […]
Parenthood is Ending and I’m Shamelessly Bawling
Tomorrow night is the end of an era. A very sweet era. Parenthood, the show that has captured us for six seasons is bidding its adieu. I love the show. With passion. Because it is the perfect blend of heart and the aching humor that is a too true testament to the realness of this life. Because it nails the pain, […]
The Ambiguous School Fundraiser
Silly Mommy thought she had met her match in the fall through the school picture order form. Isn’t the naivete of a first-time Kindergarten mom precious? As it turns out, there was a far greater evil in store, lurking for me in these bleak winter months, a powerful force popularly known as The School Fundraiser. This […]
Save Me from this Winter Plague!
I’d chance it to say that winter and I are developing a non-compatible relationship. While the freezing temps, icy roads, and endless cabin fever are adorable in and of themselves, it’s their accompanying plague of sickness that thrills me less. The past two years, we’ve been hit, and hit hard. There was last Christmas in […]
I Need a Life Coach
Having this blog allows me to do some really, really neat things. Things I would never otherwise do. Like sweat it out in hot yoga, get the most awesome family pics we’ve ever had taken, and plan fabulous blogging conferences. It’s fun, it stretches me, and challenges me to be my best person. I love […]
Coach Daddy’s Guide to Cool Schools
One of my favorite people in this blogging world is Eli of Coach Daddy. There are many great things you could say about Eli (he is kind, he is a teamplayer, he cares passionately about his kids, he is funny, his dedication to featuring Star Wars pics in his posts…the list goes on), but what I […]
School It with Reading Eggs!
A few months ago, we dove into the big bad world of Kindergarten and hit this learning-to-read business with a frenzy. I’m really, really proud of my son and all the incredible progress he’s made. We’ve even gotten into a bit of a swing of homework time, and learning how to best get it done. Without […]
