I need to introduce someone who is going to be hanging out around here a bit. Let me rephrase: I pray she is going to be coming back a whole lot more. Please be really nice to her so she does. Alisa is funny, and her witty sense of humor has captured me. She is […]
Calling Sister to the Vlogging Front!
There was a situation recently in which I had to do a vlog post. And I had been in NYC the night before and didn’t get home until 3am. I don’t do 3am well. At all. So I did what any logical person would do and made my sister to it with me. To be […]
And….Finding the Funny is Back!
I know, people, the summer was rough on all of us in more ways than one. The endless sweat-soaked days and whacked schedules had their time and place, but the time has come to move on with fall. While I can’t get back your life-savings you sunk into contastnly supporting the swim diaper industry, I […]
My Perfect Girl
I wasn’t going to have a girl. Let me rephrase: I ALWAYS wanted to have a girl for as long as I can remember. Then I found out I was carrying a boy in my first pregnancy, forced myself to take stock of the fact that my husband was one of 4 boys, and wrapped […]
When Michaels Happened
It was the perfect storm of a non-crafter’s horror. I had been made responsible for the favors for a bridal shower AND had to purchase ribbon for my upcoming book signing (don’t ask because that one is just too weird to explain). What did this mean? It meant that the time had come to meet […]
Happy Birthday To Me
I sent this to myself last year on my birthday, and it seemed beyond appropriate to send it again this year. I understand everyone has a different journey, dream, and goals, but trust me when I say that for me, this is a good thing. A very good thing…
Letting Go
I have a distinct memory of cruising down the highway about a month after my mother was diagnosed with cancer. My 13mo. old son was in the back seat and I remembered something cute about him I wanted to tell my mom. I picked up the phone to call her and then had the passing […]
Natural Disasters Can Make You Mother of the Year
There’s a sensation going around on these interwebs, and her name is Amanda Mushro. Amanda is the fantastic voice behind Questionable Choices in Parenting. She’s the kind of person I should be scared of because her hair is always GORGEOUS and she’s always so witty, but the thing is, I met this too-cool chick in […]
Screwing Up My First Born
When I was a very new blogger, I met Femme Frugality and fell hard. This girl is a smart, savvy bargain-hunter and really knows her finances. The grooviest part is that she doesn’t work in the financial field at all and money-saving is just a hobby for her–one that she’s very good at. She’s also […]
Dirty Little Secrets of The Mom of the Year
What’s that? You want to know all the crap that happens here behind the scenes at The Mom of the Year? I could sum it up for you in one sentence: It involves a lot of self-induced stress and late-night begging my husband to edit my posts (yes, the dear man proofs every single one), […]
