When MamaKat suggested sharing a journal entry from when I was 13, I knew that would be the writer’s prompt that I’d pick. I was an obsessive journal writer when I was a teenager, which is a fabulous thing. I am so glad I kept a journal. The only problem? I wrote about the same…

Losing It.
Yesterday, I was sitting with AJ, my 4 year old, clicking through blogs and reading through emails. The following picture caught his eye and he asked if we could watch the Juice Box Jungle video together. I suppose the picture of a screaming mom pulling her hair out looked a little silly to him.

Halloween Shots (It’s About Time!)
Despite the fact that I was very slow to get into the Halloween spirit, it appears that my kids were still able to have a pretty decent Halloween. In keeping with past years, all five of my kids picked different costumes to wear on Friday (for school parties and the trunk or treat at church)…

After the SITScation conference was over, my brother and sister in law took me to their apartment, just a short drive away from the strip. Later that evening, we returned to the strip…
Motherhood Has Changed Me
When I first read through MamaKat’s prompts for this week’s Writer’s Workshop, my gut reaction to #4 (Describe how motherhood has changed you) was to point out all of the signs of motherhood on my physical body. The varicose veins covering my legs that appeared during pregnancy and will only disappear with surgery….the stretched-out stomach….the…

What Happens in Vegas….
There was just too much to say about my trip to Vegas this weekend, and I’m certainly not done talking about it. I thought that it would be easiest to share a bunch of my pictures in a whrrl story. I’ll be back with more, for sure. Powered by Whrrl All I can say is….I’m…
