A Mom Speaks

My son did the craziest thing yesterday.  He has recently become a fan of the TV show Lazy Town.  I was listing some items to sell on Craigslist when I turn around and my son was climbing onto the entertainment center.  I had no idea why.  So when I asked him what he was doing, [...]

I’m proud to report that my son has gone a week and only had 1 accident! I’m so proud of him. I spent all last week really working with him. We stayed home most of the week so I could send him to the potty once I saw any sign of him [...]

I mentioned here that my daughter enjoyed getting in our dog’s crate. Maybe its because she knows she isn’t suppose to go in there. For whatever reason she was in the crate again a couple days ago, but this time I got pictures! So, here is my daughter playing in the dog [...]

or what’s left of it.

I have been trying to potty train my 3 year old son, we will call him SuperBoy (because that is what he calls himself, go figure). He knows how to use the potty, wipe himself, flush the totliet, and wash his hands. He just doesn’t do it. I [...]

I am currently at my inlaws’ house in OK.  I have no scale on which to weigh myself and no tape measure to take my measurements.  So I have no idea how much I weigh.  I’m pretty sure I have gained some weight, but do not know how much.  It is currently snowing and very [...]

I participated in the 2007 Ornament Exchange at An Island Life. Last week I received two of the most beautiful ornaments from Tracey at At My Own Pace.

I know my photo isn’t the best, but the ornaments really are just gorgeous! Thanks Tracey!
I didn’t put up a Christmas tree this year [...]

I recently read the book The Power of a Praying Parent by Stormie Omartian. I got the book through Swaptree.com, an online book swap. I traded a music CD for this book and I could not have been happier with the trade.
The book itself is only 213 pages including the Appendix but they are a [...]
