Sponsored Video: Who Wants a Candy Free-For-All?
This post is sponsored by Brita, but all thoughts are my own. Right about now, parents everywhere are feeling uneasy about the amount of candy that their kids are going to consume today (and probably the next several days, too). Am I right? A few years ago, when I still had preschoolers running around…
How to Help Kids Reach Their Full Potential #PCBigDay
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Kellogg’s Frosted Mini Wheats. All tips, opinions and thoughts are my own.

Sponsored Video: Funny Kid Conversations #Easytodigest
This post is sponsored by Kellogg’s but all opinions and funny kid stories are my own. Have you ever had one of those conversations with your kids?

The Gift of a Lifetime: Getting Kids Involved in Community Service
Please welcome guest contributor, Brad Jamison, who was wonderful enough to write this article for my blog while I’m away with my family on vacation. Note: this is not a sponsored post. Just great information! People ask me all the time why I am so dedicated to volunteering. While there are many reasons I…
It’s Not Mother’s Day ‘Til Someone Says, “I Hate You, Mom!”
I don’t have many (high) expectations for Mother’s Day. As long as I can get a nap (the height of luxury) and, if possible, avoid cooking all day, then I can end the day relatively satisfied. Why is it, then, that I come to the end of most Mother’s Days feeling like a horrible, unappreciated…
Spring is in the Air…Shoes, Exercise, Puzzles, and More
Spring is in the air and I’ve been busy this month, writing like crazy (yes, I have a life beyond this little blog!). Since I had so many articles published on other sites in April, I thought I’d post a short recap of each of my posts. PS – every time I get a new…
The Breakfast Project – Fueling Dancing Feet and Piano Fingers
My family of seven goes through half a dozen gallons of milk each week. That’s a lot of bowls of cereal, smoothies, recipes, and afternoon or evening snacks. We could survive very long without milk (or should I say…we wouldn’t survive happily without milk). Between full bowls of cold cereal in the morning and tall…
