stars and stripes planted on the moon’s surface. What would life
be… Read More »- Let’s talk: Comment (0) | Blog

In the past two weeks, I’ve been to two kid’s birthday parties. Truthfully, one of the parties belonged to my oldest whom just turned five (sob). She had a joint birthday party with one of her preschool friends, so if you count the “family only” Chuck E. Cheese festivity, the count is… Read More »

are leaving for week-long adventure at Disneyland and the
surrounding area. I'm sure I will have MUCH to write about upon

toughest moments in all of Motherdom…the day you first drop of your
baby at child care. Dun, dun, DUN! What an awful moment. I remember

About six months ago, I started to notice
something. The world has a lot of background noise. A lot. The
sounds of traffic, people talking on the mobile phones, music
booming out of the car next to you at a stoplight, barking dogs,
crying babies--the list just goes on and on. Keep in mind that I… Read More »

Is it just me, or lately has everyone’s
Careful-What-You-Wish-For been showing up and slapping us in the

Like many working moms I struggle with
balancing my professional and family obligations. I have a “big
job” (trumpet sound)…one that some people might envy. This “big

Lately it seems stress has been sneaking up on me
at every turn. Work has been stressful from every angle—too much
travel, internal politics, challenging revenue goals, and well…just
too dang much to do. The girls have been at each other’s… Read More »

Over the past year, one of my big goals
was to make some new friends. My best friends include my sister
(who lives four states away), my friend from college (who is single
with no kids and lives 90 miles away), and my husband (who is…well…
