Wedded bliss (before kids!) a mere 16 years ago The other night Chad and I were laughing ourselves silly as we remembered this story from a couple years ago. *Warning! It is not for the faint of heart! Or for those of you who might be embarrassed by the topic. It might also be considered [Read More]
Major League Debut
This morning Chad and I woke up before the kids. Wow, how did that happen? We literally ran to the living room with our coffee cups and plunked down to watch adult morning news, not PBS Kids or Cartoon Network. This was the life! Within 30 seconds both kids were up and on the couch [Read More]

The Magic Bed
Sydney in Montana last month–check out the mountain goat behind her! While visiting my parents out West on vacation, we got to check out their brand new fifth-wheel. For those of you without camping backgrounds, a fifth-wheel is the mammoth trailer that people pull using a pick-up truck. It really was beautiful! And it had [Read More]

Still Bad
I know all three of you are dying for my next installment. “What’s happening?” you wonder. “How is she messing up her children this week?” Don’t worry, I’m still bad. But it’s summer. And the living is easy! Seriously, even though things get out of hand, I think I am so relaxed that I just [Read More]

Experienced Bad Grandpa stories
I’m back! I know all three of you missed me. This week’s stories revolve around my dad, a great man whom I love dearly. But even he has his bad grandpa moments. Last week while we visited him and my mom in Montana they offered to watch the kids so Chad and I could go [Read More]

Not just a bad mom, but a dumb one, too!

Feed me!
Will got a new goldfish for his birthday. He named him Goldy (yes, I know, not too original, but he thought of it himself and was excited about the name!) Anyhoo, Will feeds Goldy in the morning and at night. This morning as we were all getting ready for the day, I asked him if [Read More]

Bad Mom vs. a 3-year-old
“Mom,” said Sydney. “Where are my apple slices?” I had been doing a million things and had told her to hold on. “Remember, I told you to hold on.” “Where are they?” “Sydney, I told you to hold on.” “You’re a bad mom,” she said, matter-of-factly. Oh, great. Just what I needed to hear. “Well, [Read More]

Satan’s Minions
Now that the weather is warm in Michigan, the kids have been spending a lot of time outdoors. I was looking for them the other night when it was time for dinner. “Will! Sydney!” I hollered. Nothing. “Children!” I continued. “Children of the Corn!” Nothing. “Devil Children!” I tried. Nothing. “Satan’s Minions!” I shrieked. “What?” [Read More]
