This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of FRESCHETTA® for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. I have never been a fan of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches (I’m sure I ate my fair share from my school lunch box when I was a kid. Mom?). Now, though, I prefer a nice…
Am I Bugging You?
I hear that phrase almost daily from my 5 year old. “Am I bugging you?” Granted, he’s just being silly when he says it, but the answer is almost always yes. But I can’t help but smile and give him a hug when he asks me that question. AJ brought this paper home from school…
Bed Bugs
No, I’m not talking about the bed bug epidemic. I’m talking about the overwhelming, paralyzing fear of finding bugs and spiders in my bed at night. I don’t often talk about my childhood fear of bugs in my bed. In fact, my fear of bugs in my bed is one of those topics that I…
Child Hunger Ends Here
There have been plenty of times in my life as a mother when I have wondered where money for milk or bread was going to come from. But somehow, thankfully, something has always fallen into place and I’ve had food to feed my kids. We’ve had challenges, but we’ve also been greatly blessed. Not every…

Japan Quake Relief
When I was 13, I was sitting at home watching TV when the earth started to shake. Growing up in California, I had experienced plenty of earthquakes, but it didn’t take very long to realize that THIS one was different. It sounded like a train was coming through our living room. The solid marble entry…
Since 1910 Diamond Giveaway
I remember shopping for my engagement ring way back in early 1995. Oh, I feel so old typing that! I went for something very simple: a yellow gold solitaire. I had been wearing an opal ring since I was 12, and my secret desire was to find a ring that was similar in design to…
