“What does he want for Christmas?” my mother asked. “All he wants is money,” I replied about my son, 15. Grandma would not be deterred, however. Surely I could give her gift ideas besides cold, hard cash? Our conversation motivated me to think up the suggestions below. Many of you may look at it hoping [Read More]

June 4, 2018 By Katy 17 Comments

Check out these real-life math word problems for moms. Can you solve these funny but true equations?!

Kids have been finishing up the school year all across America these last few weeks. But for moms, there is never a break from math, particularly math word problems.

May 7, 2018 By Katy 13 Comments

For years I sat through Elmo and Caillou (ACK!) with my daughter. I’ve watched tween comedies like Liv and Maddie and The Loud House. My daughter, 11, even went through a savage Full House rerun phase. But I’m happy to report that those days are over (mostly). That’s because we are watching full-blown reality TV [Read More]

January 15, 2018 By Katy 16 Comments

“I just want to pop into the Hallmark store,” I told my 11-year-old daughter. “They have those socks I like and I have a coupon.” My daughter asked to stay home. I was a bit surprised. After all, days earlier she and I had hit the mall and scored quite the haul during the after [Read More]
