Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

I was without my cell phone today because I was getting an iphone and needed to switch all my contact information over, port my number, etc. It is amazing how many times I reached for my phone but it wasn’t there. I thought of calling my mom, or booking a hair appointment, checking [...]

Boys are much different than girls

Sunday, August 24th, 2008

Boys and girls are so different! My son, Jace, was supposed to be taking a nap today when I heard something in his room. I went to see what was going on and he was standing on the top bunk of his bunk bed naked! I asked him what he was doing [...]

Do you leave your kids in the car?

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

I was running errands today and a cute, young mom who left her kids in the car while running into a crowded strip mall. She left the car running, so the kids weren’t left in a hot car and I am sure the car was locked as it was a car with a key [...]
