Threesy Peasy

June 10, 2014 · 13 Comments

Last week I was at the park on a play date with some of my Mom friends and - !HOLD ONTO YOUR HATS! - the conversation turned to our kids.  Because the conversation never veers away from our kids.  On play dates you are only legally allowed to talk about three things - kids, children and babies.  Once in a while someone might throw in something about a cleanse.  After play dates ...

It’s Called A Boob. Now Take Your Finger Off My Nipple.

January 14, 2014 · 5 Comments

When it comes to explaining matters of the flesh to our children, my husband is infinitely more qualified than I. He is in the medical field, and it's not uncommon for him to read his anatomy books to them as bedtime stories.  Everything is all blah blah brain stem, blah blah uterus.  The way he explains things as he's answering their questions it sounds like he's teaching ...
