One of the best books I have ever read on parenting is Raising Kids for True Greatness by Tim Kimmel. I never would have imagined when I read that book that someday I would be blogging on his FamilyMatters Blog! How crazy is that? I think God really enjoys blessing us in ways that makes us literally giggle! I hope you will join me over at their site today as I give a bit of advice on how to keep your children from being terrified of … [Read more...]
Snowmageddon!
So all day today I had meetings...important stuff regarding MomLife Today, upcoming video interviews, various events, future plans - including an amazingly fantastical mom conference we are planning. But here's the thing, all I could really think about was the grocery list in my purse and how I needed to get to the store to buy snow day supplies before Snowmageddon hits tomorrow! It was entertaining how throughout the day the forecast was … [Read more...]
Where Is The Love? – Music Monday
OK - so you gotta admit last night's Super Bowl half time show was quite entertaining! I literally jumped up off the couch and started dancing. Oh yeah, you are sorry you missed that huh? {maybe not} Several years ago when the Black Eyes Peas released their song, Where Is The Love? my kids and I wore the heck out of it! We still have the entire song memorized and have always enjoyed playing it very loudly and singing along! I realize the … [Read more...]

Snow Day Ramblings
So - I had these big plans to write an epic post today about my deep and wonderful thoughts provoked by an article I read yesterday. I woke up this morning to a "no school" announcement and wondered...."No school - what the heck?" It looked like a normal day outside. Then around 8:30 the snow began to fall - big fat white puffy snow! The pretty kind! So the amazing post you could be reading remains joggling around in my brain and I am … [Read more...]
Snow Day Mom Melt Down
All this snow day talk amongst mom bloggers, facebookers (I just invented a new word - I'm sure Wikipedia will be calling soon!) and the news outlets sucked up out of my cluttered brain the memory of a blizzard I lived through when my teens were little bitties! It was February and outside the landscape was covered in a blanket of white snow. Inside our cozy two story home I sat on a warm carpeted stairway, my newborn infant son in my arms and … [Read more...]
MOMzilla Speaks!
My daughter is one amazing girl. Better than I will ever be. Maybe her wonderfulness is due partly because of me...but I suspect it's mostly in spite of me. That's the wonderful blessing of being a mom - if you do it right. Day in and day out dealings with my growing children cause me to really see myself. It's almost as if those little souls daily hold up mirrors that expose worse than deepening wrinkles and graying hair - those mirrors … [Read more...]
Annoying Habit or Family Trait?
My teenage daughter has long teased me about my ongoing habit of randomly singing (quite loudly) whenever I am off by myself somewhere in our home. I am talking loud and enthusiastic (with umph) kinda singing… I am totally into this singing thing, kinda singing. No, I do not have a particularly melodic voice, but that does not stop me from belting out the tunes. This habit has been with me since I was a young professional, I recall the … [Read more...]
Better than… – Music Monday
On a good day music energizes me! On a bad day music soothes me! I so embrace silence and practice it often...but there is something about music... … [Read more...]
Challenger Memories
I had just started my career as a Corporate Paralegal on the island of Palm Beach. Twenty five years ago today there was excitement in the air as everyone was anticipating the Challenger Space Shuttle launch. At the time of the launch everyone gathered in the Senior Attorney's office to watch the big event - we had a clear view out over the Atlantic Ocean and there was a bright blue sky that day. As we stood silently watching history in the … [Read more...]
