Family...Blog It Forward in Familese? Cuz I need to give a shout out to my hubby, Gil.
Can I just tell you what I came home to tonight? After working late, but not as late as lately, I was greeted upon walking into the house by three grinning, deliriously happy children, tummies full from dinner and about to dig into strawberry ice cream cones and then baths. Simmering on the stove was a pot of the most delicious-smelling Parma Rosa Rigatoni with Sea Bass, and to go with it, a hunky chunk of my favorite Parmesiano Reggiano and a very full, very cold glass of Chardonnay. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I almost cried at the sight. Needless to say, I am feeling full and happy and just the right amount of tipsy. So thank you, Gil, thank you Knorr, and thank you Safeway.com, for making a gourmet meal happen without any help from me!
I write. A lot.
I also design stuff and collect funny things kids say. Oh, and please buy my book. It's very funny.
I also review books and keep track of them in The Mommy Blog Amazon Book Store.

My son was in the same room as me when I was getting dressed one day. I scratched the top of my left breast a little and he said, “Mommy, you are touching your —-!”
I said to him, “I just have an itch,” to which he responded, “That’s *your* excuse!”

Jax: Mommy, here’s a little piece of toilet paper to wipe the tip.
Mommy: The tip of what?

After being told to go outside and pick up the dog poop, he goes outside, whines and complains. He comes back in and says, “Mom, I think the dog over-pooped.”

When I woke up one morning with a sore throat, raspy voice, and fever, my three-year-old, Emilie, asked me what was wrong. I said, “Mama has a cold…” and she felt my cheek for a minute before saying, “No. You has a hot!”

Do you know how I memorized 2 x 11? I have this fake pencil in my brain, and it writes down the multiplication!!
