A Whole Lotta Crazy

Mom Moments

I learned some things today: 1. It’s possible to wake up feeling giant, put on a pair of pants, and have them be loose! 2. Having fun and making my 7 year old laugh in the morning is the best way to wake up 3. In 2nd grade, it’s still ok for your mom to […]

Break Toll

It’s finally Friday. Last day of my son’s Spring Break. The whole thing has gone rather well, considering. My nerves and eardrums are just completely shot to hell at this point, though. Momma needs a vodka. So my son falls and epically crashes two days ago;  Belly Up   and today my daughter follows suit. It wasn’t […]
