Tips, Solutions and Humor for Moms
It’s spring break, so my husband took the day off of work and we decided to take the kids to see Rock City in Lookout Mountain, Ga. Here are a few pictures. The swinging bridge. We even ran into the Easter Bunny. (My kids now think the Easter Bunny lives at Rock City.) A good time [...]
I’m not proud of this, but it makes me laugh. My son wanted a cool band-aid and I didn’t have any.
So, I have been looking for the humor in the busted ankle of this past week. (If you need the back story, read You Know You are Having a Bad Week When You Borrow Your Dad’s Walker). Here are some things I learned about being injured and on crutches: It rains a lot when you are [...]

(Another is the toilet, but I don’t really want to write that letter, nor do you want to read it). Okay, back to the apology [...]
I’ll be honest, I stoop to bribery sometimes. I’m not thumping my chest here, just being honest. There are times when I just can’t handle doing things the hard way, so I play one of the Trump cards I’ve been stockpiling.

It’s time to sort through toys and clothes and tag them for upcoming consignment sales events. Ugh! I think I would rather clean toilets. The last couple of times I did this I said I wouldn’t do it again. It’s so much work. But then the dollar signs appear in my eyes as I imagine everything selling [...]
