This is What Happens When Your Mom Sleeps Too Sound

My daughter and I were chit chatting the other night after our nightly read together and she was laughing her butt off at me because apparently I am a bit of a sound sleeper while other times I do odd things in response to her voice. This was our conversation…. We were talking about how I’ve been rather grumpy this past week, I blame it on the idea that I may have PMDD but that’s another story. So I basically told my daughter I would be climbing in bed earlier than normal to try to sleep off the grumpies I’ve been having. I told her if anything came up or she needed anything to just wake me up, I am Mom and there’s no reason for her to feel she …

What I Walked Away With from The Movie The Vow

I finally was able to sit down and watch The Vow, a movie I had wanted to see upon it’s theater release, however, being a work from home mother of three going to the theater rarely happens. I sat down with popcorn in bowl and clicked play, prepared to release whatever emotions The Vow brought out.

My Boys Decided to be Social with Our Neighbor

The other day I was outside getting ready to go pick up my daughter from school, the five year old had to be home for he had a dentist appoint that took up most of the day. I had purchased some FlavorIce pops the day before and the boys were enjoying some popiscles outdoors hanging out waiting for me to get them buckled into the car when the neighbor popped outside to do his yard work or whatever. Now my neighbor lives directly in front of my house, connected to the lawn that is ours. Growing up in this house I hung out with his daughter and was a grade behind his son in school. I think of them as good people and honestly will miss interacting with the people …

Cyberbullying is Real, Have you Experienced It?

Cyberbullying is Real, Have you Experienced It?

I recently watched a TV movie about cyberbullying and it opened my eyes to a lot of parental subjects that need to be discussed with my children when they become a bit older. As of this moment my children are not online via social media sites or other communities therefore cyberbullying does not come into play .. yet. The movie I watched was about a girl who was being cyberbullied to the point where she felt she had nothing better to do than to attempt to commit suicide. The sad fact is, this happens all of the time. It’s somewhat easy for adults to tell our children that this is just mean kids, kids who have never been taught how to treat others nicely or we can reassure our children …
