...than family.  Welcome to my site - where you can find joy, humor and help in being a mom, a wife, and a woman.  The job of taking care of the people we love is a special one...and in the end, nothing is more important!!!


Women are crazy.  We have to be!  The reality for most of us is going non-stop from sun up to sun down (or longer) taking care of the kids, keeping the house, being a wife, doing this job, being a part of that activity, taking care of those responsibilities....
WHERE DOES IT END??????
 
The fact is... it doesn't.  Being a woman shoulders us with the greatest responsibilities in the world, but I think it also gives us the greatest rewards... our children.
 
Becoming a parent is exciting, but it also means adapting to a huge life-change, and a shift in who you are. It took me 10 years to want to become a mommy...  When I had my first child, I found myself unprepared, overwhelmed, and frustrated trying to balance being a mom, a wife, and a career woman.  And now that my son is three and has a little sister, I realize that too much of my life has been about too many other things... and it dawned on me that I don't have enough time to enjoy the gifts I have been given - my kids and my husband!

I created this web site to help other women with such feelings. I'll offer my opinions about parenting, share some experiences, and provide information that I think is helping me become a better mother and wife. You'll also find a ton of links to helpful sites on the web.

My personal goals...

  1. To raise happy, healthy children who become happy, healthy adults who contribute to the world around them in a positive way (and take care of me when I'm old).
  2. To be a dedicated, loving wife and continue building a strong marriage and give my husband the spouse he deserves (and to get the marriage I deserve).
  3. To be happy with my life, my job, my decisions, and myself (and learn to accept this "not 18 anymore" body).
  4. To connect with others that have the same goals and create a site that will be useful to other mommies (and hopefully provide some laughs).
