Tweet It’s been just over two years since I first started blogging. In some ways, it feels like I’ve been doing it forever but in other ways I learn new things every day. It’s been quite a journey and something that I’ve been wanting to do is post more often, but haven’t found the time. [...]
Tweet I’m generally a pretty happy and upbeat person. Over the years I’ve had people tell me that in the midst of disaster or tragedy, I’m a sense of comfort since I’ve always got a smile on my face and some positive thoughts to offer. I think it is flattering to be known as that [...]
Tweet Honestly, I wish someone pulled me aside after I had my first son and explained to me that my libido was going to take a nosedive. Or that sex was going to be uncomfortable. Or that laughing too hard would make me pee my pants – literally. More importantly, I wish someone told me [...]

Tweet I recently did something I had never done before. No, I didn’t skydive, get a tattoo or even go on a wild spending spree at Bloomies (I wish!). I spent the entire weekend with my kidlets, ALONE. No husband, no extended family, no mommy friends, no playdates… NOBODY but me and the kids. I [...]

Tweet Lately, I noticed something my son was doing that his friends in kindergarten weren’t. They ran up to their mommies and daddies when they came to pick them up after school and gave them big hugs and kisses.
