Gone are the days of a quick trip into the market. Actually those were gone about 2 years ago. Now, I've realized I'm going to be toting three...three?Today I was strolling through Walmart with my two and realized how exhausting it was trying to keep the oldest one from running off, the youngest one from jumping out, and myself trying to squeeze my items into what was left of the cart. By the time I hit the parking … [Read more...]

Those are three words I NEVER want to use in the same sentence again.Typical Saturday night, husband is away working security at a hockey game while I've got the kids at home. I fix up a big meal of spaghetti, fried potatoes, cottage cheese, and garlic bread. Yummm. We start to finish up dinner and my daughter is covered head to toe in spaghetti sauce. No big deal, right?

Today my husband celebrates his 29th birthday. Eeek...that's almost 30! But as he reminds me over and over again, 29 isn't 30. Fine, he's right...but it's damn close to it! It wouldn't be such a big deal but the problem here is that the older he gets, the older I get. This man is dragging me into the tunnel with him! I still feel like I just turned 18 and now he's got me facing 30.Most people are probably just … [Read more...]

I was spanked, my parents were spanked, and yes, I've spanked my son. But should we?This is the question that I pondered tonight after my husband gave my daughter a spank. I was shocked to say the least and snatched her teary eyed face away from him to comfort her. Maybe it's because she's a girl or maybe because she's still so young, I couldn't bear the thought of her being punished this way.We were at the dollar … [Read more...]
