Baby and the Dust Buster

When we moved into our new house in March one of the first items we purchased was a Dust Buster. Most homes with kids have them right? They are so easy to use, portable, hold a good amount of junk and if charged, are always read to go! No, I’m not getting paid by Black […]

A letter to another mother

*A mother on a Facebook group that I belong to posted yesterday that she lost her baby a week ago at 22 weeks gestation. This is my letter to her* Dear Mother Warrior, I don’t’ know you and we have never met but since I saw your post you have been on my mind all […]

How did you announce?

Announcing that you are pregnant and/or announcing a baby-to-be’s gender is very trendy these days.When I announced to friends on Facebook, I wrote “Me + The Hubster =baby arriving August 2011”.

To make it more fun for an event […]

It’s there when you need it

Finally sleeping in the hospital with the I.V.

When I was little I had a rare (then it was extremely rare) disease. Luckily, although it took doctors a while to figure out what it was I do not have any lasting side effects. I did have to be monitored for a while and my immune system was non-existent as well so I was susceptible and got lots […]

A sign of the times

In my field I have worked with many children who have used some basic signs to help aid their communication when they are unable to do so with their voice. So, when Princess Peach was born I knew immediately that we would be signing with her. From birth The Hubster and I have been signing […]

A pint sized artist!

There is something so freeing and wonderful about finger painting. There are no rules, no boundaries and the masterpieces that are being made are in the artist’s mind and on their finger tips! Anyone no matter what their age or abilities can finger paint. Some might need some help but it’s really such a fun experience! […]
