Today’s the first day of a new school year. Ainsley is starting 2nd grade. Zack is in pre-school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. So, I get a lot of one-on-one time with Zack. And a little time to work uninterrupted. I decided I should just create the habits I want to have for the whole school […]
Hollister back to school t-shirts are inappropriate. They have sexualized messages on them. I can’t even muster up any fake shock today. Sorry. Am I officially desensitized or just having an off week? Jezebel can at least still muster up a paragraph of “gross and inappropriate.” If we had half a brain we’d – as […]
Attention Moms: Lose 47 Pounds with 1 Old Rule! Have the baby! I’ve finally, after 3 years of toiling away on this site, made it to Internet fame. Maybe you, like many others who email me to ask if I’ve taken up modeling or extreme dieting, have seen my photo featured in advertisements such as […]
I picked up a copy of Know Your Power: A Message to America’s Daughters by Nancy Pelosi on a flight from Salt Lake City to Dallas. This book gives insight into how a housewife with five children became the first female Speaker of the House in America. It’s a fast easy read too. I always […]
With all the Photoshopping that goes on, do you ever reflect on the beautiful women in your life and notice that it’s the “flaws,” freckling, variation in tone, hairlines, creases and wrinkles that make them uniquely, authentically beautiful? Especially when their laughing and all their crows feet and laugh lines and forehead wrinkles really bunch […]
When I was 16 years old, I was stark-raving mad boy-crazy. Promiscuous, extremely provocative. My parents, my whole family, were fundamentally religious and I simply could. not. be. contained. I was hyper-sexual. However much my parents, my religion, my school pushed for purity and abstinence I resisted. I wanted to attract. A mate. Boys. A […]
My daughter, like every five-year-old girl loves the Disney Princesses. I mean, we can’t really walk through any store without seeing clothing, dolls, books, backpacks, flash cards, puzzles, games, dress up clothes, videos, bed spreads or shoes that aren’t logoed with these girls. Since banning the princess paraphernalia we like to play a little game. […]
Broadcasters and government officials have put the scare on about N1H1 virus reeking havoc on the new school year. There is still no vaccine. I have only one solution to offer – Thieves. This bottle of essential oils combines the oils thieves and looters used to rob plague victims in France, without getting the plague. […]
Noah Cyrus, Miley’s nine-year-old sister was photographed on a stripper pole with her friends at a night club before the Teen Choice Awards. Read that story on Dlisted. Also in the Dlisted story is a new teen pop group titled The Lolitas. You know, like the elementary-aged little girl who “made” Humbert Humbert rape and […]
Joan Sather MPH RD writes about how our health choices affect those around us over at Nutrition Know How. And thats a wonderful thing! Think of those around you when you need some extra motivation to eat nutritiously and be physically active. As friends, daughters, wives, and mothers, our healthy behaviors can positively influence those […]
One major secret to a positive body image is wearing the right clothing for your body. Clothing that doesn’t show everything is clothing that cleverly hides flaws and private areas. Like the above dress, for instance. I don’t want to mislead you, I’m no prude. I’m prone to flashing a bit of cleavage myself. I […]
I thought gender stereotyping was mostly nurture when I had my daughter. I was right. Until I had a son. Given equal opportunities and equal access to both gender’s toys and games I have to concede: Zack likes cars, trains, and balls far more than Ainsley does. He is more likely to build stuff with […]
