To Moms Who Shoot Daggers

Moms who shoot daggers, shame on you. Last week when I picked up Little BooBoo from preschool he was playing in the big yard, undoubtedly having the time of his young life.  The moment he spotted me walking toward him, the melodrama began. He didn’t want to go home and wanted the entire western hemisphere to know.  Nevermind the […]

A Letter to Little BooBoo on his 3rd Birthday

My Dearest Little BooBoo, Hard to believe it has been 3 years since I was in heated labor on September 11th and I begged you to be born the following day; you listened. From the moment you were born you brought me more love and life than I could have ever dreamed possible.  You have brought me joy, […]

A Simple Birthday Wish

Little BooBoo’s birthday is approaching and I had planned to host a good old-fashioned backyard birthday party.  It was going to be a relatively modest affair with family, close friends and his little preschool classmates.  I started the guest list and before I had even finished adding our inner circle of friends and family I was at 42 people.  […]

Little BooBoo’s Debut

For your listening err, pleasure. Little BooBoo sings Glee’s version of Heart’s “Alone”.  Such raw emotion.  I believe he really needs to know, how does he get you alone?

The Big Boy Bed

Mommy Friends, it was time.  Had it not been for the birth of my newborn nephew to whom we had promised Little BooBoo’s crib, my baby boy may have just stayed in his crib forever. I’ve written before about the deeper meanings of parting with the baby stuff.  I’d be lying if I didn’t say that […]

The Waiting is the Hardest Part

[Image Credit] I am a certifiable expert in the way of pediatrician visits.  Little BooBoo has been seen a record number of 12 times so far this year alone for a variety of toddlery things. Of the dozen visits this year, I come back to the same gripe which I like to call “the waiting […]

My Rookie Mistake

[Image Credit] Somewhere between my first and second child I abandoned radical parenting and the world (or at least my kids) breathed a collective sigh of relief. I was all up in my eldest’s developmental biz from the time he was born.  I was busy filling his days with tummy time, music time, reading time […]
