Did you just finish the Reading Rainbow theme song? Did ya? Did ya? Did ya?
(What the HECK is with the dog turning into the star, BTW?)
Well, after having the privilege of fist-bumping LeVar Burton at Phoenix Comicon this May,...
After living a very full and memorable 5 years in Seattle, WA we moved back to Phoenix to experience the hottest August on record last year. Most days, I miss that green, wet, angsty, environmentally friendly, granola city and...

I am a person who loves a good challenge! I may not conquer them all, but I sure do like to try.
I wanted to tackle the issue of being and feeling frumpy as a...

It seems like only yesterday that I was able to take a vacation on a moment's notice: throw some stuff in a backpack, fill up the gas tank, hit a Starbucks, and be on the beach in six hours....
My son just turned one last month. His birthday was the 11, the party on the 12 (also our 5th wedding anniversary), and Mothers day the 13th. It was a busy weekend to say the least. It was also...
I have always wanted to do a furniture redo. I think I have 20 something pins on Pinterest alone on different furniture pieces people have redone and the techniques and supplies they have used. I have been thinking of...
This was my Father's Day card for my husband last year. It was the first year that I planned ahead and made a special card! I am such a procrastinator. I have come a long way, but it is...
Hello Lovely Ladies,
Let’s face it trying to get pregnant can be quite stressful. My husband and I have been in no hurry to start a family. We wanted to travel and take our time before moving onto that...
Before I had children and thought of being a mother, I had all sorts of warm and fuzzy feelings about how I was going to parent my children. Most of those daydreams were filled with love, nurturing, tender affection,...
Over the past few years, I have made many decisions about how to spend my time. Growing up, I was always busy with excelled classes in school, extracurricular activities, dance classes at least four days a week, and teaching...
Most days, I feel like I’m waging a never-ending battle to keep my house reasonably clean- not just because of my kids, but also because of me (I’m an inveterate paper-piler and memento-keeper). My daughter, however, is 3, and...
Patience. This is something I seem to struggle with lately as a mom of four fabulous, yet busy-bodied and imperfect children. So you take an imperfect mom, and couple it with imperfect children, and there you have it! Imperfectness!...
I sit here writing, 3 days until “due date” with my second daughter, and wonder: Who will this little girl be? What will she love? What will she look like? What will make her laugh? What will make her...
