…and it’s one of those things that you’re not really supposed to laugh at. My daughter was going up to the restroom, and said she would “just use water” to wash her hands. “No, honey. You have to use soap.” “I don’t want to.” “I don’t care. You need to.” “But I don’t want to.” [...]

Happy Daddy’s Day!

To my darling, whom (or who? I never could figure that out) I love dearly, and who makes parenting much more fun and bearable! And, obviously, possible. Happy father’s day to you. You’re one of the best. And to my own Dad, who I miss a ton. We were at my daughter’s dance recital tonight [...]

I’m married to Uberdad…

There are many moments in my day that are precious ones, I’m sure. Though I’m usually overwhelmed by the stressful, frustrating, and mind-numbing facets of them, and I often fail to see the precious facet of the same moment. Yesterday, I got lucky.

Weekend Tidbit…

After that hugely long last post, just a quick one today. This was the sound of our “alarm clock” early Sunday morning. A very robot-y 2 year old voice saying, “I am robot jammies. I am robot jammies.” Which he would say more and more loudly until the baby would start crying, at which point [...]

I said in my very first post that I didn’t know exactly the day I became Mommy. I do, however, know the day I became Ubermom. Sit back while I tell you the story…and just let me know if you need to spit. I was 7 months pregnant with my third (and LAST) child. My [...]

Apparently I’m too polite. At least when I’m disciplining my children. Now, maybe some of you are thinking, “I’ve seen you discipline your kids, and polite isn’t the word I would use.” Well, mind your own business. This is my blog, not yours. (Kidding.)
