the story of a single mom overcoming life
It has been almost 11 years since I became a mother and sometimes when I look at the three little girls playing around in my living room I can’t even believe it. I have three amazing little girls. There are times when I just watch them or look in on them when they are fast […]
OK ladies and gents… Can we talk about how important it is to raise our daughters with a decent self-image and how hard it is?! For one thing, every time they turn on the TV what kind of role-models are they seeing? Real everyday women, working real jobs in everyday life? Not quite… instead they […]
Did you guys know I apparently have a tween? Do ya’ll even know what a tween is? Because I had to look it up. My 9 year old daughter, who will be 10 in few short weeks came home not too long ago and informed me that she is indeed a tween. My first thought […]
Can I just say how excited I am to be back at it! I missed writing on my blog so much. I’m excited to share new things with you all. I’ve thought long and hard about what my first post back should be… I could talk more about post divorce life, or about my recent […]
I will never understand how it could be possible, that a person who has, on many levels caused such harm to his children and not to mention the women he took a vow to love forever and can consistently come out looking like HE is the victim. It just doesn’t make any sense. I honestly […]

“Yep, they are all mine” If you are a mother of three kids or more, you get this (probably a lot). The stuff that people say to me when I’m out and about with my girls tends to drive me nuts, the looks I get don’t make things any better either. When my ex would […]
I don’t know one mom who hasn’t felt like a momster (mom+monster = momster) at some point. And if I had to guess those moms have probably felt like that more than once. It’s those crazy moments when two out of my three kids are fighting over which My Little Pony is theirs (there […]
Over the last several years it has seemed to me that all I have done is fail at everything. Working at a job I haven’t always enjoyed (and then loosing it). My marriage. Having money troubles. Not having all the the things I feel like I should have at this point in my life. (I wanted a […]
