I am More Than “Mom Enough” Today and Everyday

I am More Than “Mom Enough” Today and Everyday

The newest TIME magazine cover frustrates me.  It was so distastefully done.  That is not how a mother would hold a breastfeeding child, whether he was a baby or a toddler.  And the words “Are You Mom Enough?” are so far beyond uncalled for it’s rediculous.  It by no means supported breastfeeding, bottle feeding, attachment… Continue Reading

Why Are Working Mothers & Stay At Home Mothers On Opposing Teams?

I recently contributed to a discussion titled “Working Moms vs Stay at Home Moms.”It apparently wasn’t suppose be bashing the role of SAHM but the vibe I got from the postee and her comments, it certainly seemed to be the case.  To be honest I  think she was just trying to validate her position of being… Continue Reading

My Biggest Challenges In The Trenches Of Motherhood

One of my biggest challenges as a mother is finding a balance.   Giving each child the right amount of attention, while also working, and  getting things done I need to.  In March of 2007 I became a stay at home mom.  I started blogging on and off in the Summer of 2009.  I took a… Continue Reading

Kids Say and Do The Darnest Things…

Well it has happen to me on quite a few occassions and I’m going to take a leap and share a few…. Continue Reading

“Mother’s Day” A beautiful day in paradise to celebrate how fantastic I am. A day all the kiddos get along and play nicely. There is no crying or whining allowed. I get to sleep in and have breakfast made for me. No cleaning involved or laundry to be done.  A simple day with lots of peace… Continue Reading

I have found that my biggest challenge as a mother is to find that “Perfect Balance” in my life as a wife, mother, sister, daughter, friend, and most recently I have also thrown working from home into the mix. I have found myself falling short in one area or another and at times feel overwhelmed… Continue Reading

Target Trip Gone Bad

Oh, the joys of bringing three children under the age of five to Target.  Let me first start by saying, I get looked at like I have three heads whenever I go to Target or Wegmans.  I bring all three kids, the younger two go in the double stroller and my oldest walks.  Am I the only… Continue Reading

Working Part-Time Keeps Me Sane

My husband is a doctor and works at a hospital. He works late hours and is on call a lot. I feel as though I am like a single mother at times. What makes it even harder is that my family is far away. It takes a toll on you, so much, that I enjoy… Continue Reading

I Love Being a Mom and Staying Home, Most of the Time

Most of the time I am happy and feel blessed for having a husband and three girls. But then three days before my period, all hell breaks loose. I then for a short time hate the responsibility of being a mother and a wife. Put it this way. The phone rings and of course I… Continue Reading

I’m Okay With Working Full-Time Outside the Home

As a full time working mom, I do remember heading back to work. I did it in a transition though so I think that made things much easier. My daughter was only 7 weeks old when I went back to work.   However, I had family that watched her until she was 12 weeks before taking her… Continue Reading
