Let’s use the spirit of Halloween to Help Us Be More Human All Year ‘Round 

on
Mom celebrating the Halloween spirit Halloween is a season of fun, costumes , and candy . Indeed, it has become a favorite of mine. The kids get excited about their costumes, and spending the evening visiting neighbors and receiving candy in response to their declaration of, " Trick or Treat "! All around the country, neighbors open their doors and give candy to anyone who shows up seeking it. Upon reflection, it is a beautiful tradition that embodies the generosity of the human spirit. I was talking to someone yesterday and commented about how much I have grown to enjoy it and wished that it could last for more than one night.

Loving Your Newborn Baby...

Never fear blog readers. I am writing Part II of "The Tales of Natural Childbirth". However, it is hard to find the time .

Babies can be Messy, Stinky and Time Consuming


My days are filled with diaper changes—the dirty, the messy, and the stinky. I also do a lot of breast feeding—the necessary, the wonderful, and the demanding. Then there’s the breast pumping.  It is tortuous, inconvenient, and time consuming. 
While less fun than the fist pumping done by "The Situation" and "Snooki" on the Jersey Shore, I often feel about as silly as they look when I do that particular deed.  In my spare time I wash clothes, cook and clean. I sleep when I can. On top of all of that I work outside of the home.  Then, every day, I wake up to do the same things again. Not to whine but, I could really use a clone.

I wonder if I’d already be done writing that natural childirth piece if I stopped the whining??? NAH!!!
