This post was sponsored by Crayola. All colorful opinions are mine. If you’re like me, you’re probably worried about how much time your kids spend with their screens. I mean, don’t get me wrong…screens have their place in today’s world and our kids do need to be tech savvy. But, I worry that my kids…
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Members Mark 3-ply facial tissues. All opinions are my own. Cold and flu season is almost upon us. It’s not a question of “if” someone in my household gets sick but a question of “when.” And, since we’re an all for one, one for all kind of crew,…
I received compensation from Aleve to write this post. All opinions are entirely my own. #NeverBackDown #Aleve #CollectiveBias #advertisement Are you one of those “all-in” kind of people? I am. I don’t think I really know the meaning of “take it easy” and although I don’t have a problem fitting in fun, entertainment and recreation,…
I totally forgot to go into my style profile last month and let my stylist (Camilla is baaaack!) know what types of clothes I was looking for in this month’s box. You’ll get more out of Stitch Fix if you let your stylist know what you’re looking for or what you don’t want to see….

If you’re a mom ready to say goodbye to the school year, then you will recognize yourself in this one. A tired mom’s goodbye to the school year I’m tired. So very tired. I’m tired of this school year. I want it over. I’m tired of waking the kids up from a deep sleep with…
I’m that older mom. You know, the oldest mom with the youngest kids everywhere she goes? I didn’t set out to be here, yet here I am. When I was in my twenties, I didn’t stop to think much about what life and motherhood would hold in my forties and beyond. I’m 50 now (eek!)…
Yes, I know my kid is small. So does he, thanks to a well-meaning blabbermouth. Some backstory: Kyle turned 10 this spring. He’s the smallest person in our family and he’s always the smallest kid in his class. He realizes this and it bothers him. We nurture him and we build him up while trying…
Hey, you know that song from “Frozen” that starts with “do you wanna build a snowman?” Of course you do. Oh…song stuck in your head? Welcome to my world. Around my house, we sing “do you wanna go to Costco” so if you’re a Costco groupie like me, maybe that tune is now just a…
If you say stuff like: “My kids will never do that.” or; “I’m never going to be that kind of mom,” then you are just asking for it and Karma will sneak up and not so politely bite you in the ass. I should know. I was one of those moms. A couple months back, I…
