Say It Enough, You'll Start to Believe It

For one more week, I get to tell people that I have a six year old, a three year old and a two year old. Then it changes when this girl turns four: For a couple of months now we have been threatening to make her stay in bed all day long on Feburary 2, telling her that […]

The kids are with my mom this afternoon. I have a small chunk of time in which to be productive but I don’t know where to start. So I’m writing a blog post. And I’m convincing myself that it’s necessary – that it’s work. Because that’s how I roll. Some people, when they get overwhelmed, […]
[Continue reading...]I know, I know…politics-ugh. But it’s worth noting that I am extremely proud of Massachusetts for their historical election yesterday. That was an election that affected our entire country and I know I am joined by many when I breathe a sigh of relief that the balance of power has been shifted. I do not […]

Tonight I am taking a walk down memory lane. I’m travelling back to a day when life was simpler. It was filled with scrunchies and oversized tie-dyed Esprit bags.

With the temperatures warming up to a balmy 42 degrees, I am snapping out of my rebellion against all things weather. We took the kids sledding at the local park again the other night. I’d love to share pictures or video to document, but I brought the digital camera without the media card inside it […]
[Continue reading...]That’s what she said… Sorry, I couldn’t resist. So inappropriate… It’s been a morning. Said morning began at 1:00 am when Landon woke up crying for the second night in a row due to a nasty cold. I gently nudged Lee out of bed to deal with it (read gave him a shove and a […]
[Continue reading...]Pull up a chair and join us, won’t you, around the kitchen table (actually, if I’m gonna get technical, it’s an island, but whatever. I mean, really, that’s neither here nor there). It’s time to work on a little grammar. It will be fun! We’re gonna conjugate verbs…in russian*. Just you, me and the six […]
[Continue reading...]It’s a crazy morning and it’s going to be crazier if I keep sitting in front of this computer screen! I’ve got one kid bundled and shipped off to school and two more dressed, fed and plopped lovingly in front of the television. And now I need to get myself showered and ready for what […]
