This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Sterling. All opinions are 100% mine. As a mother of five kids, I can’t begin to imagine how many hours have been spent kneeling by the side of the bathtub washing kids. Especially during the summer, when kids get to the end of […]
I kid you not. After I had fallen flat on my butt not once but twice before I made it to the cross walk at the back of the elementary school, the crossing guard mentioned that I reminded her of the “slipping on ice” viral video she had seen the night before. She described […]
This post is sponsored by Kellogg’s but all opinions and funny kid stories are my own. Have you ever had one of those conversations with your kids? As a mom of five kids, I spent many years pregnant, and I can guarantee there were many awkward - and often hilarious - funny kid conversations…about babies […]
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Cottonelle. All opinions are my own. The story, however, is my husband’s and I did get permission - hesitant permission - to share his story for the benefit and humor of this blog post. Prepare to laugh, say “Eww!” and have a new […]

I found this Back-to-school quote today and thought it was too funny not to share. Disclaimer….I love my kids. I really do. I love spending time with them. But I also look forward to the start of school, a regular schedule, and yes….a little separation.
When my kids were younger, I kept a notebook where I would record weights, illnesses, play dates, and all of the funny things they said each day. Sometimes I miss those days, when my kids were silly and parenting was so much simpler. I remember my oldest daughter, clearly, coming in to our bedroom at […]
I am getting ready to take all 5 of my kids to New York City for a whirlwind day of sightseeing (yes, I decided that I am well enough to survive a day trip to NYC!). As my husband was prepping the kids for our trip (paying particular attention to the younger kids and safety […]
While I am away from my computer for most of the day, enjoying my kids on their day off, I thought I’d share the tutorial that AJ, my 6 year old, wrote up yesterday at church. How to Make Bouncy Shoes with Springs and Duct Tape I have to be honest….he set out to make […]
