Things have been super crazy busy lately. I feel like I’ve been running around frantically trying to get everything done, and only getting maybe 75% of it accomplished. Kids are all well and healthy, with the minor exception of Jessie being sick last week (or was it two weeks ago?) and then Julie was throwing …

Mama, if you had to decide right now, would you have another baby?
Jessie wants a baby. Bad. Every couple of days, at least once a week, my girl comes to me with some version of the question above. Do you think someday, you might have another baby? And each time, I want to shake her, just a little, and point out that I’ve been trying to …

Sunday mornings
I love Sunday mornings. It’s the only morning I don’t have to get up and do something. Monday, Wednesday and Fridays would be my next favorites, because I don’t have to do the dreaded Julie preschool run.

Bedtime Champion
I’m awful at putting my kids to bed. There, I’ve said it. I like to think I’m pretty good at most of the mothering stuff. I’m patient, pretty relaxed about most things. I can bake really good cookies, and get dinner on the table quickly and most of them eat it. But I’ve never been …

Way Back Wednesday
I’ve got a crappy cold, and feel no particular inspiration. But I haven’t posted a blog entry in a while, so I thought I’d try and pull one off. I just wrote a very long, incredibly boring blog post, and deleted it. So here’s an old post, better written, from a few years ago, when …
