M2M: Clearing the Clutter in Your Life

Last week I wrote about some of my frustrations….don’t get me wrong.  I wouldn’t trade my job as a stay at home mommy for all the money in the world.  I LOVE being home with my boys….but like any job, there are going to be times when frustrations rise up, and I have to reevaluate [...]

M2M: Ok, Miss Negativity, Be Gone

In Anne of Green Gables, Miss Stacie always had this quote she would say to Anne: Tomorrow is always fresh with no mistakes in it.  (I have to add one word….”Yet.”)  It’s fresh with no mistakes in it….yet.  At least, that’s my motto.  Lately, I’ve had my days where I feel like the most horrible [...]

Worst Mom Ever | Guest Post

Parenting post from Theresa at Higher Education Mama

Today I was the worst mom ever.

ACT I
I drove 45 mph through blinding downpour 10 miles north to DPS to get a replacement drivers license. Then I realized in the parking lot that I forgot my Social Security Card. Back through the rain. Then, the kids and I [...]

M2M: Staying Consistent in the Race

One thing I have struggled with, and I know many other moms struggle with in raising children, is being consistent when it comes to discipline.  When it comes to effective discipline and teaching our children right from wrong, I really believe it boils down to consistency.

* Mom2Mom: The New Work Out Program *

“Darn! Another day of no work out!”

This thought crossed my mind as my morning passed into lunch time without one free time slot for a work out. This has been a constant frustration of mine since beginning daycare. Even if I can find time between breakfast time and snack time, between craft time and [...]

Guest Post: Mom2mom-You Do it One Way, He Does it Another; and that’s OK!

Thank you to Jessica from Paulsbride, for this guest post.
The other night, just before it was time to get our two boys – Judah 2.5 and Wesley 1.5- ready for bed, Judah asked me if he could have a glass of milk. Typically we don’t give them liquids so close to bedtime as they both [...]

M2M: Intentional Mama

Check out these two definitions:

Intentional-done with intention or on purpose; intended.
Mama- (Slang Def): a sexually attractive, usually mature woman; one’s wife.

Hmmmm….definitely not what I thought Mama meant. It can also mean “mother,” but in the context of this post (which is definitely not what you think), we’re going with the slang definition.:) In [...]

* Mom2Mom: From Home to the Work Place . . and Back Again *
