When a woman refused to place a blanket over her baby while nursing on a Delta flight, the woman was kicked off the plane. I’ve nursed on multiple flights and never had a problem. Since several U.S. agencies confirm how good nursing is for children, I find it hard to believe nursing in public is [...]
By accident (are most inventions by accident?), I discovered an easy and quick recipe using my crockpot.
This recipe is so easy to make that I can prepare it while the baby eats breakfast. It’s also a flexible recipe. If you are missing a vegetable ingredient, you can go ahead and make this without it.
Quick and [...]
Getting a baby to sleep through the night is one of the biggest subjects new parents talk about. I went nearly a year with no more than 3 hours in a row of sleep. These books helped everyone in my family sleep more, and they also restored my sanity. Enjoy the book reviews!
Good Night, Sleep [...]
It was odd to be in a place where people think I’m going to hell when I die.
My niece was blessed this past weekend in a Mormon church, and I attended the service.
My first experience with this religion was in high school when the one Mormon boy claimed he had to go to church every [...]
This mom from down under must contend with a large scary spider.
Have I mentioned that I’m terrified of bugs. We used to have ants in my house as a child, and I’d have nightmares. In one respect, I find them completely fascinating. Ants, especially, are intriguing in how hard they work and how far [...]

Motherhood Issues Featured on 20/20 Tonight!
Since I don’t watch television, I’d never heard of Elizabeth Vargas until I read an article about how she had a baby and had to switch jobs so she could have more time with her child. Having to switch jobs tuned Ms. Vargas into what other mothers endure and the [...]
A post at Sarah and the Goon Squad talks about how trees can be a real pain.
Sure, I love trees, but… Raking leaves, as Sarah says, stinks. For the first few years, I even enjoyed raking the leaves. My neighbors looked at me like we were nuts because we didn’t have a leaf blower [...]
Jay, on The Zero Boss asked “when will blogging about our kids wear thin?”
He writes: “How much should you blog about your kids? And when should you stop? And if you stop…well, what the hell do you do after that?”
He continues: “I was blogging about my family less even before VA [A blog called Violent [...]
