As I am supposed to be doing a lot of things, like posting this week's Together, Ever After story, writing all about our amazing experience with the iLove Photobooth Team for our Mischief Night party last weekend, (because...I mean... it was OFF THE HOOK.) But, alas, check it: The 2 important things to note in the status above: I am home with ...
So, this is what I am going to call "Confessions Week" here on Mommy, Ever After. I am about to admit yet another secret of sorts, about which I am simultaneously proud and also a bit sheepish. Earlier this week I admitted that my son is a maniac. And you seemed to get it. That felt ...
So, there's been something that I have been trying to avoid admitting for some time now. Some call this denial; because if I say it, if I write it, then it becomes true. But, at this point I have to dive into the deep end of the ocean of crazy and just admit what we all already know: My ...
Hello, and welcome to summer! We just celebrated memorial day, which I hope, for you, was wonderful, with barbeques, beaches and bonfires.

But I haven't been able to write, because I have been too busy doing this thing called living. So, I decided that while I took the time to craft and publish these stories, today, I would republish the story that ...

Today I had a very stressful day. I was agitated more than I was happy. I had terrible anxiety and moments of deep sadness. I confided in my husband. I emailed a friend who lives in another state. I did things with my son to try to cope, finding new toys that would make him ...
Today, as I was driving out on a special errand, I put on Satellite Radio. This is a new luxury to me, as my beloved old car did not have this feature. It did, however, have a tape deck. And a peace sign. I still have the peace sign. So, when I heard this song, I ...
