Every once in a few books, you get one that really stuns you. The story may be touching or funny, tender or explosive. Then there are the characters that are so vibrant and real, you leave the book feeling like you’ve just spent a few hours getting to know new friends. When you read [...]

January 30, 2010

So you’ve heard us talk about it again and again. Probably because it’s a never-ending process in our homes. Getting and staying organized is a battle that we fight day in and day out. Of course, there must be some out there that can start and stay organized. Unfortunately, that isn’t us. Peter Walsh [...]

I was shaking my head as I read this. Oh yeah, I do this. I think. I study. I learn….but I’m really just waiting. Waiting for the perfect moment when I can think, when I have time, when the kids aren’t sick, or when I have a [...]

It’s all About the Converse

December 21, 2009

In keeping my growing boys well-shod, it has dawned on me how expensive footwear can really be. For boys that never seem to stay with the same shoe size for longer than a few months, it’s a never-ending proposition of spending money. I know that as they grow older and bigger and begin to [...]

Remove it with REMOVEEZ

Cuddling with My Pillow Pet

December 14, 2009

One of my favorite things when I was a child was the stuffed bear that was my mother’s when she was a child. Worn out in places, eyes missing, replaced, and then missing again, Teddy was a good friend. I’ve always wanted my sons to have the same type of ‘friend.’ One that could share [...]

An Eco-Friendly and Cute Calendar

December 9, 2009

I’m one of those people that loves calendars. I have a hard time settling on just one and there are so many places I like to have one close by. We need one in our kitchen for help with menu planning. Another one in my office helps with remembering birthdays and other important events. [...]
