I’ve had more okay then grand, great or even good days. That I admit. But today I had a good mom day. Today I managed to juggle all the balls without dropping one. Despite feeling pretty lousy I buckled down and set about doing all I had to do. I got some work done. Weighed […]
I love this for so many reasons-including the sweet card that came with it. Be brave. I got this the afternoon from a friend who is working on her masters. That’s brave. Tonight I tried to console my daughter who got her first ever c. It’s a 9th grade science class in 8th grade. She’s […]

I never slept well the night before the first day of school. My first days are long gone but I won’t be sleeping much tonight because it’s my little ones night before her first day and she is sure not to sleep. Even as I type this she’s upstairs whimpering,”I not ‘xcited ’bout tomorrow.” She’s […]
In a week already determined to show me all the ways I am not enough I anxiously approached “meet the teacher” with my 6 year old who has been telling me all summer that ‘she not doin’ dat 1st grade.’ When I got home early today she was all dolled up in a new dress […]
