WHAT…….!!!!!!!!!……………….. HI 🙂 Oh. My. God….. haven’t we all seen that stupid Family Guy add where the dog Stewy does this to Lois. Just kill me now! ( I can’t bring myself to watch the show)
Going Tantrum Free……..The Toddler Years
I wrote a post a while ago about toddler tantrums. In my regular blog readings and on twitter, I see so many women struggling with this shitty toddler stage but those years can be wonderful and fun and tantrum free. Here’s what I learned along my journey……………. When was the last time your kids had a full on tantrum? …
Facebook Sucks
Remember life before social media? Before we put everything up on facebook and twitter? When we had a big night out and nobody had a cell phone camera to post immediately to the world how badly we behave when we think we’re having fun? Yeah me too.
The Step Monster lives…….
Today I’m linking up with  They Call Me Mummy and her momfessionals. Here’s a story about a not so great step parent, Me.- Before I had any idea what I was doing, I was in charge of someone else’s child. It was tough and I messed it up, pretty badly at times. Do you think I damaged her much? …
Working on the Now, While Feeding into the Future
I read an amazing post recently on respect, teaching respect, gaining respect. How it’s a two way street. It reminded me of all the things I know and have learned over the years, reading all the books on child raising, that I just forgot. And in all honesty, haven’t used much lately. Solving the problems and having a harmonious household …
Don’t Argue
I have talked about this before. I’m talking about it again because it’s a pet hate. I am a grown up, you are a child…. I will not argue with you. Period. I have come into contact with several toddlers this week and have come to see that parents are negotiating too much with their children. I am not judging …
Tweens
Moving into the tween almost teen years is really testing my resolve. I am going to have to hit the books to solve these problems. I’ve got the sleeping, tantrum little kid thing down but this age is all new to me and it’s hard. I battled for an hour this morning with Grand Master D who insisted he was …
Manners, free to give away ….. barely used.
Where have our manners gone? Are they not being taught anymore? People are so rude, so ignorant and quick to push in front. What’s the deal? Have we become so busy and so stressed that we don’t have the time to say please and thank you? It’s quite disgusting. I stand in take-out stores here in Harlem all the time …
Are You a Short Order Cook?
Lately I have gotten very tough in the kitchen, I’m no longer cooking separate meals. Not that I really did it too much but with the kids older now, their palettes are changing anyway and they are enjoying more varieties of foods. Whatever I serve is what they eat. If they don’t eat it then they will be hungry. My …
I’m No Coffee Addict!
What constitutes a coffee addiction? Is it the need for the dark rich liquid everyday? Does the smell tickle your nose? Do you get cranky if you don’t have it? Headaches perhaps? I can go without, really I can. What does it mean when you’re on a first name basis with your baristas (yes plural) and they make your coffee …
