I was over at my friends CopMama and I saw this great meme she does. She has a prompt for this week that I just couldn’t stop thinking about “Tell us about a time you did something absent minded as a Mom!”
My thoughts immediately went to: When haven’t I done something absent minded as a parent.
Isn’t that awful that was the thought that went through my head? I think it is but let’s be practical it happens all the time. Let’s be truthful too. It happens to me. It happens to my friends. It happens to you most likely. I don’t want

One of the biggest things parents have to learn is how to educate their children about finances. I don’t mean to just give them the money. Truthfully that will never make them street wise. I believe that how my parents raised me about money is the best way. You have to appreciate what you have before you can really appreciate things. My mother has always told me that I would never understand why people get upset when others just jump on their furniture until they bought their own couch. Let me tell you that are so true. I get irate every

Menopausal New Mom shared with us why she thought she was a Theta Mom so please check out her post here. I want you to know that I was very touched by her request. I’m supposed to share five reasons that I believe have shaped me into a Theta Mom.Here they are:
1. When Faith was 12 months old, she began to get sick and stayed sick. I was literally terrified. My precious little baby was capable of having hand, foot
