My Baby Can Plead!

Do you all know those commercials for that piece of shit product “Your Baby Can Read”?   It features a bunch of, like, newborns, still dripping with amniotic fluid,  reading or acting out the words their shit-for-brains, idiot parents are showing them on pieces of paper/flash cards?    Then the parents look at the

Love, Mommy …

My Dear, Dear, Dear Baby Boy,

It seems we need to have … a little talk.  You’re 5 now – almost 6! – and you’re at an age where you’re as hysterical as you are insolent.  You seem to be questioning me ALL! the time.  I believe the book calls this, “testing” me? …

Remember to Always Play Beethoven Before Bedtime …

Dear Baby Boy,

Today you stood next to me and your head was up to my boob!  It occurred to me just how much time has passed since your head was directly under my boob, while you grew in my tummy (actually, my uterus — but you’ll learn all about THAT one day from

One of my bloggity friends, Sarah, posted a link to this picture site called 365project and now I’m ALL. OVER it … Here’s a peek at today’s pic …

Regarding the Puppy …

My sister wants a puppy.

You would think I’d be getting this kind of thing from my 5y/o and not my grown, 21y/o sister. “I want a puppy!”, she’d say at least a dozen times this year. “I’m getting a puppy!”, she texts.

Love in the Time of Baby Wipes …

Last month (or so) I was hired as a columnist for a lovely online magazine called Lovemionline.com. I named my column “Love in the Time of Baby Wipes” as it has to do with the “dating” aspect of being a single mom. In my relatively “off” emotional state, of late, I’ve neglected to mention
