I feel dishonest of sorts. You see, while I have shared about the challenge Kindergarten has presented to us, I have failed to tell you how it has utterly, totally slayed me. I slam out my mornings in a vigor known only to moms terrified of misstepping the intricate school system and then, by the […]
Back to School and Back to Sleep!
I’m a big fan of sleep. I like it. Of course, I don’t get enough of it; so I spend a large portion of my time distance-worshiping it, but that’s okay. Gives me something to dream about, right? Largely, I have been successful at passing my love of sleep onto my kiddos. While naps have […]
Running with Melissa
My son is brilliant. I love the way his mind works, jumping from one cool discovery to another. I love his strength, the way he’s risen through adversity and allowed it to make him stronger. From the first summer of his life when his colic was so severe I questioned whether either of us would make it […]
#Underwareness on the Move!
You know how marriage is made out of the tough stuff of life? The middle-of-the-night kids waking up, getting stuck with trash duty, hanging with your spouse through times when they need more support…from their underwear?? I know, I KNOW. My husband is a saint… It’s safe to say that some parts of me adjusted less […]
SuperMom Power with Self-Care
Did you know that International Self-Care Day is July 24? I’m all for the big holidays of the year, but in my opinion, we should raise the roof for this particular day. Self-care is so very important, especially as a momma. Caring for young kids is an endless task. And while I would do anything to […]
K.U.D.O.S. to Tackling Childhood Hunger!
A couple weeks ago I shared with you why childhood hunger is such a serious concern in the summer months. When school isn’t in session, many kids lose their access to the free or reduced price meals they get throughout the year. Thanks to organizations like the ConAgra Foods Foundation, taking steps to battle childhood hunger […]
Here’s to Being Hunger-Free
July 4th is one of my favorite holidays. It’s full of grilling, kids running around the year, adorable star-printed duds, the sky lit up with magnificent colors, and a recognition of the most boss moment in our nation’s history. This weekend is a fun weekend, a time of celebration. When The Motherhood asked me to team up with […]
Living in the Danger Zone
Friends, we need your help. And a lot of it. When OTCSafety.org reminded me that June is National Home Safety Month, it couldn’t have been a more timely nudge that my husband and I have some serious safety issues to address in our home. The advice offered at Up and Away to keep medicines out of […]
Shielding Up All that You Love
Truth told: my kids hate it when I slather sunscreen on them. But in reciprocation, I love them enough to keep whipping out the bottle and squeezing on the gooey white cream. They might throw fits, I don’t care. They might roll their eyes and think I’m crazy. I don’t care. Because I love them, I will always try […]
Slightly Crunchy?
I’m a gal of science. I believe in modern medicine and the good power of an antibiotic when I’ve got myself a raging UTI, but as time has marched on and rolled well into my 30s and find myself uber-connected with info that this little thing called the internet offers, a well submerged side of […]
