Kidecals Labels: Save now!
May 14, 2013 by Leave a Comment
I previously did a review of Kidecals Labels, and we still use these labels today. We use them for school supplies, clothing (mostly jackets and sweaters that can get lost at school), water bottles – you name it! You can put these things in the dishwasher, washing machine and dryer and they will LAST and LAST and LAST! When you’ve got kids who forget things all of the time, these are perfect. The original set we purchased just had our last name on them with my telephone number, but for the … [Read more...]
Cringe-Worthy Moments (Or, ways God has let me learn humility)
May 6, 2013 by Leave a Comment
Before I had my own children, I had an idea of how parenting would go. I operated under the assumption that I would parent my children to the best of my ability and that would be enough. I believed that my efforts would ensure me happy and obedient children, all the time. I was wrong. It turns out that you can parent a child with all your might. You can train. You can teach. You can make up good-behavior charts and bribe reward a child with all manner of stickers and special treats, but these … [Read more...]

My Vaseline Alternative now comes in a squeeze tube @waxelene
May 2, 2013 by Leave a Comment
Yay! I was so excited to get this email. I use Waxelene every evening in the winter. I put it on before I climb in the bed. My feet never felt so good. And in the warmer months I use it after I get out of the shower, and before I put on warm weather shoes. This is my favorite thing! My daughters use it for their “booboos” (which aren’t really booboos, hence the quotes), and we all use it for chapped lips. I also slather it on my neck when I think about it. Maybe it’ll get rid of … [Read more...]
Living in a college town is a different kind of experience when you’re not a college student
April 26, 2013 by Leave a Comment
I didn’t grow up in a college town. Well, I grew up outside of Cleveland and while there were several local colleges and universities, like Cleveland State, Case Western Reserve, and Ursuline College, it was nothing like living in Columbia, SC where USC is king and Clemson is just up the road. There’s just something about these Southerners and their sports. They’re fanatics, man! I mean, I’m a University of Michigan alum, but I’m not as crazy as these people. One of my ex-coworkers … [Read more...]
