I have a complaint. It’s about coffee mugs. (VLOG!)
Have you ever noticed how coffee mugs are biased. They favor the lefties. See? If I have a fun mug with a picture or something fun, I DON’T NEED TO SEE IT. I KNOW WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE?! What about the people I am having coffee with? I think we right-handers need to unite and [...]

Bye Bye Birdie: A Memorial
What do you get when you combine one dead bird, a pot holder, a rock, a Nerf gun bullet, a plastic star embellishment from a bike, and 3 seven-year-old girls??? A very touching memorial.

I am either a terrible mother OR I am as thoughtful as Jesus.
I would say if I am consistent at anything… I am consistent at flopping when it comes to motherhood. I wouldn’t say I am a BAD mom. I just… I KNOW ME. I HAVE ROOM TO GROW. A LOT OF ROOM. I am impatient. I have high expectations. I am short-tempered. I get cranky. I [...]
Motherhood on Mother’s Day
I don’t know about you… but motherhood for me has been NOTHING like I expected. I TOTALLY underestimated the blessing of motherhood. And overestimated my brilliance. You see, children are little people. People (little or full-grown) have wills. Before I entered this mothering gig, I had no idea when I saw a kid tantrum-ing in [...]
