    15 Things All Women Do When They’re Home Alone

    I love when I get to be an expert on something; because I’m not really an expert on anything. Well, I’m an expert in parenting and sneaking food I don’t want the kids to see (but all parents are parenting experts, really, so that doesn’t actually count).

    Don’t You Just Hate When Your Kids Embarrass You?

    Kids;  the only thing in life you try so hard for, wait so long for and then wonder daily why you even bothered. In all seriousness, I love my four littles.

    Kids do the darnedest things; sometimes it’s cute and sometimes it’s not. And I think a lot of it has to do with the age and the perspective one has on the situation. For example, it might be cute when your brand new 1-year-old kisses you with her mouth wide open and her tongue out […] More

    Kids ruin everything; and parents will agree wholeheartedly. It doesn’t matter how amazing your kids and how much you love and enjoy them or the fact that you would literally do anything for them in the world.
