It’s a funny phenomenon….I’ve always been terribly shy. I was always the one to opt to read a book alone at home rather than go to a party or be around big groups of people. Somehow blogging changed all of that for me, and I no longer find myself wanting to hide inside my shell….
10 Random Questions About Me {Answered!} #LeapBlog
February 29 doesn’t come around all that often, so a few of my blogging friends and I decided to do something a little out of the ordinary today. We’re all answering 10 questions about ourselves (thank you, Jessica!) and then hopping around to learn a little more about each other. Want to join in? 10…
Look at the Stars – Photostory Friday/GMYBS
This has been a rough week. First, Susan Niebur, my friend and fellow DC-area blogger died on Monday. Her passing was not a surprise. She has been valiantly fighting cancer for the last 5 years and had not been doing well of late. I’ve found that funerals are emotionally taxing, but they are cleansing as…
Tips for Hosting a Successful Party
Those who know me currently might laugh at this post’s title, considering the fact that I am totally not a party person. I have a great time when I attend parties but I really prefer not to be the one in charge. The funny thing is, despite my discomfort at being the hostess, I admit…
Goodbye, WhyMommy
It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that I am saying goodbye to a dear friend today.

Georgetown Cupcakes with a Friend – PSF
What do two blogging friends do when they meet for the first time? Photo by Kristi (from her iPhone!) They find a place to eat, of course! And what do those two bloggers do when they order a dozen famously gourmet cupcakes? Well, if they are photographers, they take pictures of those cupcakes for 20…
The Amazing Race – Disney/Dreamworks Mom Blogger Style
I love New York City. There’s something so magical and so completely different about it. I’ve also been to New York City enough times to know that nothing is quite as easy as you might imagine (or hope) it would be. Take, for instance, the Disney/Dreamworks journey to the red carpet premiere of Steven Spielberg’s…
Finding My Inspiration – Photostory Friday – Give Me Your Best Shot
I haven’t been taking many pictures lately. In fact, I feel like I keep saying that. Week after week I find myself coming up empty when I go looking for “my best shot.” Today, tired and full of anxiety (which has been particularly bad lately), I cleaned my house to get ready for a non-time…
A Week of Thanksgiving – Books
Thomas Jefferson once said, “I cannot live without books.” I don’t remember learning how to read, but I remember reading. My mom read to me daily. She read books like Where the Red Fern Grows and A Wrinkle in Time. We read them over and over. And then I found my own books and devoured…
