After staying away from my computer for the majority of Spring Break, I sat down tonight after the kids went to bed, staring at my list of posts to write, and all I could think of was how utterly exhausted I am, and how glad I am to get back to our normal schedule tomorrow….
DisneyNature’s African Cats – Help Save the Savannah
It’s not very often that I get to take my entire family to see a movie, but I was thrilled that we could see African Cats at an exclusive pre-screening on Monday. I had actually had the chance to see the movie previously, so when I was offered an additional screening, I jumped at the…
How to Blow Out Easter Eggs
My kids love decorating Easter eggs every year. For many years, we simply used the basic egg dyeing kits from the grocery store. In fact, we still use one or two kits every Spring to color the hard boiled eggs. A few years ago, though, we were introduced to blowing out eggs to decorate. These…

When They Grow Up
One of MamaKat’s writing prompts, inspired by Leslie from Motherhood in Mexico, jumped out at me today. It could have something to do with the fact that KitKat and I were discussing whether or not she’d make a good lawyer on Monday. Or maybe not. Either way, I thought it would be fun to predict…
Soaking It In
I had plans to get some work done today. I had a blog post scheduled to be written. But I spent the day soaking in the sun, the warmth, the blossoms. I might not have been productive. I might have spent a little too long at the park with the kids. But it was time…
Washington DC Cherry Blossoms
I was faced with a dilemma this morning. The kids were out of school, and several of my friends had planned a trip to take all of our kids to DC for the annual Cherry Blossom Festival. I wanted to go. Three of my kids really wanted to go (three of my kids have best…
Finding Balance and Being Present
One of the hardest things about making the transition from dedicated-stay-at-home mom of young children to a work-at-home mom of older kids was finding a balance between getting my work done and giving my kids (and my house) the attention that they deserve. It is a constant concern for me, and one of those issues…
Wordless/Wordful Wednesday a la Instagram
Here are a few of the things I captured with my iPhone this week: Iphone pictures might not be the best in terms of quality, but I love the fact that I am getting photos of moments that I never would have captured before. And I am IN some of the pictures, too (incredible!). Linked…
Having a Baby – When is the Best Time to Start a Family?
I was 20 (and a half!) when I got married. CandyMan and I knew before we got married that we didn’t want to wait long before we had kids. A big family was our goal and we figured there wasn’t any reason to wait. Eleven months into our marriage, when my birth control pill ran…
