Nothin’ like getting schooled by a handsome actor (that you used to interview about his movies) in front of your kids. Yeah. Actor and celebrity dad Josh Duhamel (aka: Mr. Fergie) recently schooled me. He schooled me goooood. I say this with the biggest smile on my face and sincere gratitude. Way to teach a…

Teach toddlers to read? Sure. With babyfonics genius™
Ever tried to teach toddlers to read? To teach your tots their letters? I have. I am. I now realize: I’ve been spoiled. SPOILED. Spoiled by my first-born (LadyP… all four years of her now). Since the day she was born, LadyP instantly acted like a little woman – a lady (that’s how I came…
Toddler Birthday Parties: Crowns, Rules, Lessons & PSXO!
The baby that inspired this blog is now officially four. FOUR. That means I’ve been at this blog-thing (I still call it a blog-thing, as though I’m not sure if I’m going to stick with it or not) for the same amount of time I spent at high school. Or, for the same amount of…

As I shared the other day, summer was a bit bipolar. Ups, downs, in-betweens. Some good, some not. Hello, it’s LIFE. And as we know: Life is a journey. Roll with it. Just go. Handle it (that’s my mom’s favorite mantra from back in the day). With this summer came certain moments (or – MOMents –…
Life: Why 2 funerals made me want to party.
“Why are you doing this? What is the occasion?” asked someone close to me that I see on a weekly basis these days (don’t ask who it was, I won’t incriminate myself). At the time of the inquiry, I was due to have a last-minute party at my house in just a few days. I…
