This evening Kevin decided to take a nap. The house was rather quiet. The boys were home. 14's possible girlfriend stopped by and she dropped off some cookes she'd made for him. I say possible . . . more

I’ve been substitute teaching (subbing) for a couple months. I remember how eager I was the first day of subbing. I was in sixth grade. I knew I would be wonderful. I would walk in the room and introduce . . . more

I'm probably an average mom. I'm the kind of mom who reads Family Circle and dreams of being able to create the parties the mom’s on they feature create. Unfortunately, I've never been known . . . more

Well, this evening 14 was off to a friends house. That left the hubby, 11, and me. Now, I should tell you that 11 is a high maintenance kid. He's had eczema problems before and I'm always worried . . . more

Several years ago, when my son was in first grade, I determined he was going to be a packer. It was an easy decision, or so I thought. We went out and bought his cute little lunch box. I hated Pokemon, . . . more

This morning I got up at 5:30 a.m. I did not plan this. I woke up because I was freezing. I did a survey of the house and sure enough the whole house was cold. So, I went downstairs and the pilot light . . . more

Has anyone been watching this show? I love it. In fact, the hubby and I tape it and then watch it with our kids. I don't understand why they have it on at 9 p.m. It would be perfect if it were at 8. . . . more

Well, tonight was interesting. We colored eggs. 14 and 11 seemed to enjoy it. 11 was writing things like “help me” on his eggs. 14 created some faces and that sort of thing. I did leave coloring . . . more

Have you ever bought something for your kids and wish you'd never bought it? I think for me, it's going to have to be the Barney Live from New York Video. My son wanted that video as a baby and . . . more

This is one of those days I miss my digital camera. It used to be that my sons would hibernate in the house while winter raged on. Snow piled meant nothing to them. I was distraught. I remembered my love . . . more

I keep hearing how self absorbed parents are nowadays. So I was discussing this with my friends. We started talking about how much "me" time we have. Folks may be surprised that we decided not . . . more

Ok, I was a little bit of a Christmassy (is that even a word) mood last night. I had a horrible headache though so it made it a little hard to function. But, I walked into the dining room and saw my 11 . . . more

Ok, I was waching MTV and VH-1 with my son. I do this because he can watch videos and yet I can turn if something too raunchy comes on. I've noticed there are a number of songs I like that I cannot . . . more
