Motherhood, really parenthood, brings with it so many
joys, so much laughter, but also trials and challenges. There is also the development of
“momspeak,” that is the secret language that no one teaches you, that you
suddenly remember your mom speaking as well. In addition, ...

My husband handed me the Sunday paper this morning as I was about to sip my first cup of coffee. There, on the front page, was an article about the ethics of mom bloggers writing about free stuff they get from companies . The article was informative, following one mom blogger from the ...

I constantly go back and forth between loving and hating LA. When I have to drive somewhere at 4 p.m. on a weekday, I hate LA. When I go running at the beach on a perfect fall day, I absolutely love it here. But lately, it's running that has made me go back to hating this god-forsaken place. ...

I know everyone thinks their kid can do no wrong and for a while, mine was pretty darn close. I'm totally aware that this sounds SO stuck up, but in the great scheme of things, she really was a textbook "good" child. Especially for a two year old. Very few tantrums, likes to share, naps ...

When I tell people that my oldest daughter is 12 and in 7th grade, I see their faces shape into horror and then pity. My own parents seem to delight in seeing me try to dissect this time. My friend that is now a grandparent just shakes her head. My friend that's a principal and spent many ...

When my family and I arrived in this country we had to learn a LOT about tradition. I remember opening the door on our first Halloween and wondering what people wanted. The following year I got the opportunity to experience trick or treating and I remember thinking, ...

Lately all the chatter in my Mommie Group has been about pre-schools. We are all trying to figure out which ones to apply to, when, how, what the process is and finally the big question, how do you get accepted? Being Jewish I naturally am looking at Jewish pre-schools, which immediately ...

My son, my first-born son, my angelic-faced boy broke his front tooth today playing on the schoolyard. And I can tell you that I had no idea I would care so much about a tooth. But just seeing it chipped off at an angle made me burst into tears. It's such a shock to see his little mouth so ...

As my kids grew older and I became more involved in launching my business, I realized that I owe so much gratitude to the ‘circle of women’ I met online and have grown attached to. I started my Internet endeavor completely alone. However, I continue to
produce and flourish within a group of ...

Shopping
with my 13-year-old can be a trip... to the psychiatrist. I have
learned to keep my opinions to myself and let her find her own style. If
only.she would return the favor. Last week, while shopping for new
shoes (for her), I happened to look longingly at a cute pair of boots. "That's ...

My older sister stands at 5'11 and is a size four. Her stomach is concave and I'm pretty sure the only muffin top she's ever experienced is the blueberry kind behind the bakery counter. She has long wavy (easily straightened) brown locks and perfectly sized perky you-know-whats that have ...

O.K. I've held off for quite a while, now, about the H1N1 virus and vaccine, quietly reading the many posts about it and the comments about these posts. I've given my opinion on a couple of the seizure/epilepsy list serves that I'm a member of and been silenced a bit by what I believe is ...

A few nights ago I was at an
interview by Los Angeles Magazine with Matt Weiner, the
Creator of Mad Men. The show is set in the early 1960's and even though the show is called Mad Men, it has a lot to say about women of the era and the challenges they faced. It got me thinking about ...

One of the mothers at my son's elementary school was talking about the swine flu and said she wasn't planning to get her children the H1N1 vaccination.
"I'm not an alarmist," she said. She hasn't given her kids the flu shot before and she isn't planning to now.
I am an alarmist as this ...

Not long ago, my stepson brought a flyer home from school. It
informed parents that on the evening of Picture Day, the photographers
would be back at the school to take family portraits for those who were
interested. Of course, the flyer came home the night before this was
supposed to ...

I gained 38 lbs. while I was pregnant with my baby. After she was born, I lost 19 lbs. by my 6 week check-up. "This is going to be a cinch to lose!",...so I thought. I breastfed and heard of all the encouraging stories of women who lost their baby weight all because of ...

This week I turn 33, which I didn't think much about until my friend pointed out that it is my Jesus year. That, along with a recent message on Revolutionary Faith , made me think about what great things I could accomplish this year. I'm not going to be able to save the world from cancer or ...
