My internal compass is always right on the money, forever bringing me to the right places at the right times. I’ve only technically been lost once and that was trying to find a boy. Go figure… I’m sure I’ve shared this story but just incase you haven’t heard it, here it is. I was nineteen […]

Happy Wieners
This post is not about wiener dogs, but it is about wieners. Last week I was changing into my pajamas when my oldest walks into the room and says to me, “Mom, your butt’s too big for those undies”. I didn’t even get mad. That little voice inside of me told me, “someday he’ll […]

Thumbing
This posting once a month BS has GOT to stop… If anyone has any suggestions on how to get more consistent, I’m all ears. My planner plan OBVIOUSLY isn’t working. End rant. Almost. I think it’s because when I get into this rhythm of posting here, Facebook and Instagram my husband starts to call me […]
Smoking
My little guy wants to smoke. He fake smokes straws, string sticks, sticks, chopsticks, anything that resembles a cigarette. He walks around puffing all of the time. * * * Much like my little guy, I was probably 4 when I knew I would be a smoker. I wore […]
Young Love
Who cured cooties? And how did I miss that memo? Within the first week of Kindergarten my boy came home with his first crush. I thought I had a couple years ahead of me before THAT would happen. ** My sons class was going to Disney on Ice for a field trip and I felt […]
Hearts in the Ice
I have two of the worlds most typical boys. They fight. They wrestle. They like cars, superheroes and Legos. Mostly they like to wrestle and not always with each other. * * * A couple days ago, […]
King Luther
Bash came home from school last week excited to tell me about what he had learned that day. Bash: Momma, today we learned all about King Luther and all of the good things he did. Me: King Luther…King Luther…never heard of him. Bash: Yes you have, momma! That robot voice on that song we like, […]
Case of the Barfies
It really grosses me out when kids are barry sick. REALLY grosses me out. It’s even worse when they vomit outside of their own home. It does make me happy that I’m not a single parent. While I’m soothing and racing them to the toilet my partner in crime deals with the dirty work. Do […]
The Donut
Last week Bash’s teacher asked for a recent family picture. They are working on a family unit in school and focusing on what it means to be part of a family and different responsibilities each family member has. I have a lot of pictures of all of us but not many of all of us […]

Boys will be boys…
My mom has been telling me for weeks that my boys are BRATS. She tells me this daily and she also says that I’m going to be in big trouble if I don’t do something now. I have two healthy boys full of energy and spunk. Bash (5) is smart, caring & dramatic. Lij (3) […]
