Innocence slowly fades

First let me say, MY son has a nut allergy.  It is an unfortunate thing and a real pain in the butt, however I clearly realize not everyone has been struck with this lousy [...]

I read an interesting article this morning.  It is all about spoiled children. And I am not talking just the issue of your spoiled 2 year old who throws a tantrum on the floor.  This is bigger.  This is about the kids of today…the kids who will be growing up as our world’s next ‘group [...]

Never say never

August 3, 2010

I am a mom of three.  A mom who has been through the newborn years, the toddler years, the preschool years, the elementary years, and now ‘eeek‘ the middle school years. I have been through projectile vomit, allergies, asthma, potty training, boys, girls, shyness, boldness, first day of kindergarten, scary doctor appointments, field trips, play [...]
