If You Give a Mom a Coffee
"If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" has always been my favorite children's book. Inspired by that book, here is my mom version that pretty much sums up my daily life. I hope you enjoy it.
Mom Friends: Maintaining Friends During This Busy Time Of Life
Friendship in the motherhood years can be challenging. Busy schedules, needy kids and “Mom Brain” can all contribute to our ability to connect or stay in touch with others. But one day, our lives will change. And we will need friends to support us, or just have fun with. So here are some tips to foster your friendships during this crazy busy time of life.
“Those Days” Home-school Survival Guide
If you are like me, you have had “THOSE DAYS”. “Those days” are the days that the kids decide to see how long my patience will last. At every turn, I have a child who is distracted, bored or just plain tired. And speaking of tired, there are “those days” that I am just plain tired. Maybe I am not feeling well, or traveling, or just in need of a break.
Mom’s Night Out
Let's face it Moms, we all need a night out! Being a mom is an exhausting, self-sacrificing, and most of the time thankless job (even though it is worth the work). So sometimes we need to get out of all of the serving and just have a little fun. So gather up some friends and try these ideas and places for your next Moms Night Out!

Sometimes my expectations of the day do not allow me to notice the small wonderful things that my children do for me. And either I can focus on how bad I feel because I didn't get what I expected or I can see what is there.

Reading is one of the most important skills in life. Yet some children and adults will never know the joy reading can bring. So how do we instill in our children the love of reading? Here are some steps that we can take to start fueling the desire to read even before they can.
Resolution to Serve
Green Bay may have a small town feel but as I look around I notice the big city problems. I see the man on the freezing street looking for a little food. Do I pretend I don't notice him? Thoughts immediately enter my head. I really should stop. But what if it isn't safe? It's a busy road, lots of people would see if something happened... Oh no the light is green, it's too late anyway. And there I go... How many of you can relate to me?
The Crystal River Inn – My Gilmore Girls B&B Experience
The countdown is on! The Gilmore Girls will be back soon! What a better way to celebrate than a trip to a Bed and Breakfast (B&B). My only previous experience with a B&B was eerily similar to the Cheshire Cat. (The B&B that Lorelai and Rory went to during the road trip they took after Lorelai canceled her wedding to Max). It was covered in flowers, cats and strange guest books where you were to write stories about cats...
