Finding The Good
It was the hubbub of a busy Wednesday night. Soccer practice was over, a quick dinner of spaghetti was bubbling on the stove, my oldest was reading her homework aloud to me as I cooked, and my baby girl was pulling pots and pans out of the lower kitchen cupboards. My husband an was racing home from a long… Read More
Bicker. I love the word bicker. Not that I love bickering, but I think it’s the perfect word to describe itself and it’s meaning. To BICKER means to argue about petty, trivial matters. I’ve noticed that as my children grow, bickering has become more common. I think it’s because they’ve increased in their ability to argue. In case you need… Read More
I’m an expert at not being perfect. I’ve tried to be perfect in different areas of my life, and I always fail. Duh. Why, why, why do we expect perfection and then feel like losers when we fail at this unattainable trait? Now this doesn’t mean we shouldn’t work hard, or try our best.

I wanted to tell you about my yummy banana bread that is low sugar and low fat and actually kinda healthy. But I botched it up . . . You are right now asking, How do you botch up banana bread? Yes, I know–even 10 year olds can make decent banana bread. But it’s possible. Just like the time I… Read More
So I’m going to let you in on a little conversation I had with My Man this week. It’s all about a bad hair day. Now I do this not because I want to show off our marriage nor because I want to dish out the dirt and display our faults for you all to see. But I do this… Read More
I’m curious. What do you moms out there drive? The typical stereotype for moms is the minivan. If you wanna be one of those soccer moms that passes out the orange wedges at the end of your child’s game you gotta have a minivan. Right? You know like this: Source:http://www.deerybrotherschryslerdodgeramjeep.com But what if you are not into that kind of… Read More
