  • Separation Anxiety: It’s Not Just for Kids

    Posted on 08-23-2017 | 5 comments | Separation Anxiety: It's Not Just for Kids, Sleepover, The Mom Journey,

    Do you remember the first time your child spent the night away from home? An over-nighter with Grandma and Grandpa doesn’t count. I’m talking about the sleepover at a friend’s house, that milestone event that pushed your child’s independence level up another notch… right along with your separation anxiety. Do you remember the feelings? Packing […]

  • The Most Worn-out Parenting Cliche’

    Posted on 08-09-2017 | 15 comments | It goes so fast, The Mom Journey, The Most Worn-out Parenting Cliche',

    This summer is a season of milestones for our family. Randi turned 18 and graduated from high school. Our family vacation was minus one because Kelli had a fabulous internship in St. Louis.

  • When Mom and Dad Clash on Discipline

    Posted on 07-26-2017 | 5 comments | The Mom Journey, When Mom and Dad Clash on Discipline,

    I’d like to think I know when my kids need a push…or maybe a shove. And I’d like to believe I give them that push, in the right direction, for the right reasons. But I think sometimes I may be disillusioned. I had this epiphany after meeting Ginny Owens a couple weeks ago at a women’s […]

  • I Didn’t Know That Then

    Posted on 06-21-2017 | 5 comments | anniversary, dream boy, husband, list, marriage, Prince Charming,

    This morning when Hubby woke up and said, “Happy anniversary,” I wondered how he got old enough to celebrate Year #30 when I managed to stay so young. Thirty years. Wow. In celebration of three decades of happily-ever-after, I thought it would be appropriate to post a rerun of “I Didn’t Know That Then.” This […]
