Just when I started to feel like I was going to loose my mind from the demands of motherhood, work, blogging, and cleaning the house I realized that I had several vacation days saved up at work...and I haven't had a "me" ...

Learning to speak boy
Forget my four years of college and two years of graduate school. Nothing I learned there prepared me for what I do on a daily basis....communicate with a tiny little BOY all day long. Here is where my education is lacking: Cars, trucks, and tractors. That's about all I know...but that isn't going to cut it for much longer. Hudson is ... Read More
