                                        At least that's what I tell them! Sunday, September 20, 2009. This is basically how I feel about Halloween. It's the spookiest time of the year and so much fun for the kids, but in my opinion it is a big PITA, if you know what I mean. Trying to make all those Hallmark moments out of this holiday is a joke! Here's a great Halloween song though:. ITunes Store - Maura Matlak - Halloween - Single. Saturday, September 12, 2009. Ryan Makes It Big (But Still Doesn't Know It Yet)!

LESSON OF THE DAY: You may have to repeat yourself several thousand times before people hear you. I feel like I ask this question all the time so I wanted to figure out how many times I actually say it. Four kids, twice a day=8X each day. That's 56X a week and 224X a month and 2,688X a year. That's mind blowing, isnt it? Labels: brushing baby teeth. Tips on getting kids to brush teeth. The Old Woman in the Shoe.

And don't ask a question if you don't want the answer! It's interesting how children try to quantify love, isnt it? They hold out arms, "I love you thiiiiis much." Or "I love you more than the whole world! The kids and I started talking about this one day, and it was funny the different responses, but so typical of each age. How much do you love Mommy?

THE VOW OF THE DAY: Make sure when you are trying not to procrastinate, you aren't actually procrastinating! Almost like I am trying to keep myself from procrastinating while actually procrastinating! So enough procrastinating and on with the writing! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

It never hurts to be reminded of the important things in life either. I was floored. I looked back at her and she had tears streaming down her face. I wanted to run up to her and tell her all the bad things I had done as a parent, to diminish some of her inadequacy. Tell her what I want to hear sometimes, "You did the best you could.

LESSON OF THE DAY: There's a million little things to be thankful for! Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! I spent the day eating (0f course), but also generating reasons for why I am thankful. In general, they were silly but I realized that every five seconds I was thankful for something else! I'd love to see it a few times a week! Now I'm just really thankful for Tums because I ate so much I might pop.

                                        At least that's what I tell them! Monday, November 30, 2009. I went looking for makeup yesterday. I don't wear a whole lot of it, but as I get older.YIKES.I'm needing it more and more. The sales lady was looking at my face as if she was trying to memorize every crack and crevice. Then the conversation started to flow:. Her: "So "people" with thin lips shouldn't wear dark lipsick." Apparently I have thin lips. Her: "Did you want to cover up those freckles? Me: "I guess. Sure.". Thursday, November 26, 2009.
