Are you wondering what I'm talking about? I know it must sound a bit strange. I've had constant lower back pain for the past few years, with debilitating episodes that have now become increasingly worse. On Halloween night, I ended up not even able to really walk because I was in so much pain. It happened at BlogHer this year too, and when I was in New York most recently. My blogging friends can tell you I was crying in pain at the end of the … [Read more...]

Disclaimer: I received Glitzi Globes and The Trash Pack Series to pass out at Halloween; however, all opinions are mine and mine alone.

What Does the Fox Say? Could this be Educational?
So, my kids come home every single day singing, "What Does the Fox Say?" I decided I better do some research for myself. Were they singing a song with bad words? Is there a sexual meaning behind this song? I don't want them singing anything inappropriate in school. After some digging, I found that the video/song was truly very innocent from what I could tell.

Being There for Your Kids; Be a Parent Volunteer!
Taking time to really be there for your kids is so important. You all know I was a stay-at-home mom for years, and now I am a work-at-home mom with full-time hours.
