It’s dinner time.
Dinner tonight is a savory meal of rice, moist, delicious roasted chicken, and nicely seasoned vegetables. Hubby has a meeting after work so he’ll be eating his dinner later. But my boys, aged 5 and 3, need to eat now – a little extra play time, clean up time, bath time, and bedtime [...]

Just Like My Daddy…
Giddy Up, Cowboy!!!
I was sitting down at the dining table the other day, typing away at my computer. The boys were playing with their cars on the dining floor. They laughed and chatted about all sorts of things as they played. I joined in their conversation, laughing along… but I kept typing away.
My 2 yr old then [...]
You’re Weird. Extend. And Lounge:)
I have a friend. Her name is Maxine.
Maxine is a pretty lady with a pretty heart. She is fun to be around, easy going, cheerful, and very easy to talk to. She also writes. She has these great little nuggets on her website , and one day, I stumbled on something she had written [...]
Lady in the Blue Jacket
It feels like things have always been like this. Early every morning, as we get ready for the day, I look out the window and I see her walking. She is an older lady – probably in her early to mid seventies would be my guess. She is tiny. Her back is a little bit [...]
~ Secret Place ~
I have a confession to make .. I have a secret stash of Kitkat and other munchies hidden away downstairs. I am not a big chocolate or candy person.. but I absolutely love Kitkat. That delicious crunchy wafer bar just does it for me… aaaah..lol. And I promise you, this is not the [...]
Big Bummed?
Ok this is pretty silly but I just wanted to share it with you guys:)!
The other day, the kids and I were hanging out doing a bunch of different things, trying to quickly get the day started, when my 2yr old took a long look at my behind and suddenly announced:
“That’s a really big [...]
Got Your Shot?
My boys – aged 4 and 2, absolutely love to play pretend. One minute our home is just a regular home, the next minute it’s been converted into space, a rocket ship, or a fantasy island full of hidden treasure. It never ceases to amaze me, how much fun they can have with the most [...]
It’s Not Up to Them!
A little while ago, the boys had been happily playing with their toys when they both decided they wanted to play pretend with Barney and Leapfrog, two of their favorite stuffed animals. The animals were both out of their reach that day, so they asked if I would get them (My 4yr old wanted his [...]
Don’t want kisses…
It was a typical evening, just a few days ago. We were all tired after what had been a long and busy day, each one of us dealing with their day and their work the best way they could. I sat on the couch watching the boys play, thinking – I’ll catch my breath before [...]
I’m wearing mine right now….:)!
A little while ago, I was getting ready to host an event and I had quite a bit of errands to run, shopping to do, several things to cross off my to-do list. At the same time I was running several ideas in my head – some pretty exciting business & business advertising ideas I [...]
Foolish Words
I wanted to share this with you…it made me smile and also made me think. I was at the Doctor’s this morning for a routine appointment with the kids and while we were waiting to be called in, I was flipping through a book I had taken with me – It’s called “Foolish Words – [...]
Choosing How Our Experiences Affect Us
So… like everyone else, I sometimes get disappointed by people (and I disappoint some people sometimes too). It happens to everyone from time to time. Some disappointments are huge and can seem crushing, others are no big deal and we can just brush them off and quickly move on. Yep, it is unfortunately a fact [...]
