Every once in a while you meet a true kindred spirit in this world, and I feel so blessed to have found this connection with the lovely AnnMarie of Tidbits from the Queen of Chaos. AnnMarie, a mother of four on this earth and one angel in heaven, writes with amazing heart. When she’s done […]
Misplaced by a Few Decades
It occurred to me the other day as I was kicking off my laborious nighttime routine, replete with all its multitude of creams, at 7pm, that I might not be exactly “acting my age”. I have always maintained a deep sense that my true home was in a retirement community. There is so much about […]
Handing Down The Slingshot
In truth, I don’t think More than Mommies needs any introduction. The powerhouse women, Christine and Janine, behind this engaging blog are beloved by so many. They rock out a sweet, encouraging space where moms can touch base, find a few laughs and draw strength from each other. I have been following ladies almost from their start, […]
All the One-Word Answer I Need
I wasn’t planning to post this morning. All the usual players were in the game–tiredness, exhaustion, not being able to keep up, blah, blah, blah…but then I woke up with a jolt at 2:36am. As hard as I tried to pass this off as waking up because I had to pee or typical poor […]
I Fell in Love with a Table
Now before you go assuming me all furniture-ho, let me clarify. It is our table. And I brought it home and gave it a permanent spot in our dining room. And I fully checked out its credentials before signing my heart away. The sordid story isn’t that sordid. We got married almost 12 years ago, […]

It is possible that greater events have occurred, but for the way I’m carrying on in my head about this, it doesn’t seem likely. When the lovely Bethany of I Love Them the Most When They’re Sleeping asked Stephanie of Binkies and Briefcases and me to co-host a book signing of the new book we’re […]
My Parenting Victory (and a HUGE giveaway)!

Too many bunnies, too many egg hunts, first time son pooped on the potty (woo-hoo!), moving child to a new bed, cutting son’s hair, attending a super-fun birthday party, […]
A Day at the Mall When I Was Mom of the Year
Amy from Funny is Family is one of those precious treasures you chance upon in this life. Whenever we chat, I feel like I am kicking back with a best girlfriend and letting it all hang out. Bring the beer. She is funny and she is smart. Her witty sense of humor always leaves me […]
Grief Does Funny Things
It’s Good Friday, and today, death and suffering are near and present. Easter’s joy, blessing, renewal, and sense of hope are coming, but now we hang out in the pain for a bit. It may be the time of year or just that I don’t handle holidays well in general any more, but for some reason, […]
Ten Reasons That I Should Totally Be Crowned “Mom of the Year”
Jen from Life on the SONy Side is such a funny, funny gal. I roll just reading through the page on her blog where she describes the members of her family. Yes, coffee and wine are included in that list of loved ones. In her own words, “Jen is an outspoken lover of all things […]
