- Decision Makers April 25, 2012Talking to my aunt she was telling me that she had a hard time growing up because they were never taught to make decisions for themselves, in face their parents knew best and told them what to do. And she told me how important it was to teach my kids about the importance of decision making. How was I to do this? I am not that decisive to begin with. We have […]admin
- Should I Turn My Kid Into A Bully… April 25, 2012I am not a fiercely competitive person by nature that is until I had kids. And suddenly the idea of anyone being bigger or better than my kids was terrible - mine were the best hands down. When at the aquarium (mistakenly on the first day of spring break) watching my two-year old get trampled on by bigger kids triggered me to want to kick some kid ass. Obvio […]admin

- Great Book For Tantrums March 16, 2012Ila turned two in December and since then she has decided to enter the world of really big feelings (sounds better than terrible twos). I feel like we are in a telanovela one minute she is in tears the next she is laughing and almost everything is the end of the world. If this is what two looks like I am terrified for her teen years. The other day I asked he […]admin
- What Happened To The Wheels On The Bus March 16, 2012When I was a kid we sang the familiar song The Wheels On The Bus but when the babies cried they said "waa waa waa" and the mommies on the bus said "shh shh shh". Now the whole song has changed... The babies say "peek a boo" and the mommies say "I love you". I know this is the new politically correct version of the song […]admin
- MDBT Back March 16, 2012So it has been a while since my last blog entry. I took a hiatus due to a broken foot, a stint in the ICU and the fun and follies of two children under two. I can tell you that having two makes a big difference and my usual blogging time was after the kids went to bed. But by then I was so tired I lost my voice (proverbial) and didn't think I had anythi […]admin
- Is Dora The Explorer Dangerous? November 8, 2011So you know how you hear about those crazy people who keep wild animals like tigers as pets in their small apartments?

It got me wondering if these wacky people are people who watched this cartoon […]admin

- Mundane Mommy Moments November 8, 2011I couldn't quite figure out my funk. Why I was feeling antsy and depressed being home with my two perfect daughters. All I had ever wanted was these two girls. My whole life I had been dreaming of being a mom. I would look at them and think how could I be anything but joyous? How could I feel like I needed more? Some people have sick children or lose th […]admin
