Procrastination is something everyone has experienced in life. It is important to know how to  deal with procrastination as it could have a dire impact on your success in life if you do not deal with it head on.

According to Joseph Ferrari, a professor of psychology at DePaul University in Chicago and author of …

My initiation into the mom scene was a bit different than most.  It wasn’t until after I had spent a few years helping to raise my step-kids that my son was born.  I wasn’t going to be able to bond with these kids while changing diapers or teaching them their ABC’s or snuggling with them at bedtime.  This was…

Summer and Derick both love motorbike rides.  My husband drives both of them around the village every afternoon for a joy ride.

They love it.  Most especially Derick.  It is a new experience for him.  I can see the excitement and enthusiasm in his eyes every time he rides with his dad.

So we bought them toy bikes/trikes that they can use indoors.  The first one is a glider type.  It doesn't have a dynamo.  It is propelled by swinging the steering handles left to right. The…

If you don’t like using time out to discipline your toddler or young child, there are other forms of discipline that may work better for you and your family or you can use a combination of discipline methods.  Remember that each child responds differently to discipline methods.  One child may respond to a variety of discipline methods, while another child in your…

My son stayed home with me again today so that he could continue to heal and so that I could make sure that he was fever free before sending him back to daycare.  He acts like he is feeling much better today and his fever finally broke last night.  Thank goodness, I don’t like it when my baby doesn’t feel…

My 4 year old is still fighting his fever, my 6 year old is full of energy and I'm fighting a cough, sore throat and swollen glands. There were a few St Patty's Day events I wanted to check out today, but from the neck up, I don't feel well at all. Usually, I would type in my symptoms, but I don't event want to know what a Google search would say could be wrong with me (I'm staying away from WebMD). Damn it! Being sick really sucks! On the bright side I'm glad we're sick during this weekend…

With weather in the 80's, we decided that it was a perfect day to spend some time outside with the kids.  We took them to the park so that they could play while enjoying some sunshine.  My baby enjoys spending time outside and this was the first time that he was actually able to play with very little assistance by himself at the park.  He had a blast while his older brother and sister helped him climb up and down on the playground equipment.  To see photos of our fun time at the park, please…

If you live to be 80 years old (or as a pessimist would say, if you die at 80), you will have lived 29,220 days. (Counting Leap Years)…

Mommy-cation

I will give you the most beautiful and original painting of your family, unique and only one on the market, in exchange for your time.

I need four ( 4) moms/ or grandmas 30-65 years old, to test usability of my web site and to write everything that they noticed while browsing my site.

There are few important pointer to focus on :

• How easy is it for you to buy from my site?

• How obvious is where to buy?

•  Are there ways to reduce…

Spending time with your children, especially, one on one time is important and makes them feel loved.  I have been trying to make sure that I spend time with my toddler because he is growing up way to fast.  I have a hard time getting down on the floor to play with him (due to my chronic back pain) so I have to be a bit more creative and find activities that work for me.  He loves to “draw”, which is his favorite thing to do these days.  So I scooped him up into my lap and grabbed the…

I have been reading quite frequently these days and wanted to share another great book with my followers.  I downloaded “Long Time Coming” by Edie Claire on e-book and I loved this book from the very start.  Joy decides to return to her hometown of Wharton when her father’s illness forces her to return.  She left the town of Wharton over 18 years ago, shortly after her best friend Jenny was killed in a horrific car accident just a few days after senior prom.  After graduation, Joy high…

There are so many things that I love about your nighttime routines these days. Both of the girls pretend so well and I love playing along! The best time is right after bath time while they are drying off and getting their pajamas on... 

Time running through outstretched fingers

hand paralyzed

can’t hold on to what I want most

indecision causes inaction

do I let go or hold on?
