So I'm officially a mom of a 15-year old. Well technically it won't be until 10:17 pm. How did that happen? It was just yesterday that I was holding him in my arms at the young age of 21. I was a young mom but I definitely had the motherly instincts when it came to caring for my baby. Maybe it's because I've always loved kids. I remember vividly when I was in third grade, I mentioned to my teacher that I wanted to have my first baby at 21 and I wanted a boy because my family was filled … [Read more...]

Being a mom of three kids, all different ages, the joys of mamihood can become both amusing and stressful. It's the amusement that all mothers need from time to time to avoid going insane. It helps get the stress out of the way and lets you live your life. With amusement comes funny stories too -- only a mother would know.

Verizon and JuiceBoxJungle sponsored me to write this post, and they asked me to talk about the ways a smart phone would affect my life as a parent and make it better. For the past year, I've been debating whether or not I should get a smartphone.

I've heard from many people that they either have their … [Read more...]
