Time to turn the tv off

The story playing out on my TV is a gruesome, albeit familiar, one, something probably even ripped from the headline of a news story I read last year. A baby has disappeared, a young mother is distraught, but not as distraught as a gravel-voiced investigator thinks she should be and a mother-in-law seems shady. By [...]

I read a hilarious post recently titled, “Your Birth Plan.

File This Under Things I Never Thought I’d Say: I Like Kourtney Kardashian Ever Since She Became A Parent And Admitted Tasting Her Own Breastmilk

Kardashian. Not a name that I'd ordinarily associate with respect, but I've got to say: since Kourtney Kardashian became a mom this past December, I've reached deep into my skeptical soul and found some respect for her.** **Disclaimer: This applies to Kourtney only.

Last week, I had to pony up some treats for my daughter's junior kindergarten Christmas party, but as we all know, I don't bake, so. I had a problem. I didn't want to be the mom who just runs out to the grocery store at the last minute and buys Oreos. But on the matter [...]
