Take a look at this photo and spare a thought for Jessica Simpson, if you will. I remember being nine months pregnant and feeling like my body had been taken over by not one but three vast, quivering aliens. I remember being front-heavy and unable to stand up without mechanical assistance. I remember having to [...]

I so wanted Emilia to do Jedi Training when we were at Disney World last week, but we got to Hollywood Studios too late for sign up. In any case, my husband was worried that she might be frightened by Darth Vader. Too scared? ‘Dude,’ I said. ‘If there was ever a kid to be [...]

I dare you to find a cuter video of the story of birth of Christ. First up you are never going to hear cuter accents than these New Zealand children who re-enact the story of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. That boy who plays the Angel Gabriel makes me sigh. Second, the scene where the donkey [...]

I had stacks of them, inherited from my older siblings, plus my childhood doctor and dentist offices had many heavily abused editions usually found among the piles of Highlights and Owl magazines.

It looks like a purse but is actually Mom's Best Friend

One of the hardest things about motherhood is all the crap you have to lug. There’s the diaper bag and the stroller and your purse and…oh yeah, THE BABY. There is no more “running in the grocery store for a quick sec.” Now it’s a Broadway Production complete with Migraine Headache. It’s awesome. I’ve been [...]

I’m no fan of Gwyneth Paltrow, but even I found this Onion ‘news’ story about Gwyneth getting punched in the face to be a bit much. I mean, come on, people. Violence against women is never funny, unless it’s a fake Sarah Palin against Fake Tina Fey – okay, maybe a real wrestling match between [...]

It’s a tyrannicornus rex! A unisauruscorn! An awesometasticornus! Made out of CHOCOLATE! Hand-delivered by the Easter Velociraptorchaun in a basket woven from the gold found at the end of the rainbow. Don’t tell your kids. . . . Where do I get one? Because, seriously. source
