Why Being Pro-Choice Means Being Pro-Life
Well today I read an article about abortion rights. It seems that it's still a rather controversial issue and so I've decided to speak my mind about it. The argument against abortion is always about the lives of the children and the argument for it is about the lives of the mothers. But the truth … Continue reading Why Being Pro-Choice Means Being Pro-Life
A Tip of the Hat to Surrogacy
Today begins a new stage in life for a special couple I hold dear to my heart. One of them is a friend from grade school (enough said). And today they became daddies thanks to surrogacy. I've had the pleasure of seeing their process through Facebook and well, what can I say, I'm impressed! I … Continue reading A Tip of the Hat to Surrogacy
Why I Write – Blog Hopped Edition
I was recently bloghopped by an amazing author: JD Estrada.

For now, I’ll leave you with one … Continue reading Why I Write – Blog Hopped Edition

You see, we are constantly testing our children, yet adults never really get tested out on the real world. Sure some careers require a final test in order … Continue reading Why Tests Make Absolutely No Sense
Nobody crawls anyway
Recently I read an article about a new book coming out called "Slow Parenting". Slow parenting is about letting kids be and grow at their own pace. It's about not rushing their developmental milestones and forgetting the timeline printed in books. I discovered this on my own with my second child. He was a slow … Continue reading Nobody crawls anyway
Complicated X4
That's what my mother predicted. Yup. The Queen Mother had it right. Of course, she spoke from experience. She said a second child would complicate things, not x2, but x4. The laws of physics and logic do not apply here. I thought she was exaggerating. You know mothers. We exaggerate to make a point... or … Continue reading Complicated X4
Book Blog for Kids
I've been thinking of blogging my book. It's a fantasy mid grade novel. However, I'm not sure if it will reach the right audience, since most 8 - 12 year olds aren't freely searching the net and following blogs. What do you guys think? It would be a brand new blog. 1 chapter a week … Continue reading Book Blog for Kids
First Flight
The baby birds have flown! Recently I posted about a mother bird who had nested in my flower box. In my last post, the baby birds were already full feathered, but still had not flown. I had mentioned how the mother had been cooing at them from the floor and that I thought she was … Continue reading First Flight
