I was laying awake thinking the other night…..how completely different each of my children’s early years were for being in one family. One family that hasn’t traveled or experiences too much craziness……. Adam..the first was brought into a world to a mother who was TERRIFIED of what she had done. I really think I just […]
I am feeling sooo awkward about the DDrops Blissdom thing….I HATE entering things like this…there are FAR better bloggers than me AND I really don’t even know if I could step away from my family to attend Blissdom Canada whereever it may be…. But go check out ALL the people vying for sponsorship…and vote for […]

It is quite cute before the 500th time you have heard this. She doesn’t steer that very well. Tara really enjoys WALKING to pick up her siblings….this […]
Dear teachers…..lets just stop it now. Let’s just stop the hype. Let’s just stop buying into a Hallmark Holiday and NOT DO VALENTINES!!! I have two children in elementary school. I received TWO class lists for ‘Card Exchanges’ for both. That is FORTY FOUR cards. FORTY FOUR either handmade, printed from the ‘net, or bought […]
