Time flies 23 Jul 2013 | 01:53 am
I'm so often amazed by the changes I see in my son that I sometimes forget that the rest of the world is changing too. Case in point, every summer for the past five years, my niece has come to visit. ...
Mommy Time Movie Review 18 Jul 2013 | 12:57 am
Because I don't really get out to the movies much, I watch a lot of Netflix. And because I have a 2-year-old, I don't watch a lot of grown-up movies. But last night I watched "The Switch," starring Ja...
It's Not a Competition 30 Jun 2013 | 05:00 pm
Sometimes I have to remind myself not to compare me or Milo to other people. I see kids about his age already potty-trained and I start worrying that he should be potty trained. Yet, I've heard and re...

Pride and Joy 8 May 2013 | 02:03 am
Several times over the past couple of weeks, the folks at VillaKids (my gym's kids' club/day care) have told me Milo earned a star and a treat for being a good helper. They tell me he is quiet and wel...
