Dorothy had Toto. Annie had Sandy. Ainsley has Lily. Meet Lily. Our newest Empowered Girl. We adopted this little terrier last week from our neighbor. My children already knew and loved this dog. This dog came with her own jewelry box. Seriously. She has several different blinged out collars, a Bratz bed, heart-shaped food bowl, […]
One thing I know for sure – your daughter will find it much easier to have a healthy marriage if you and your spouse are modeling a healthy marriage. Same principle applies to sons. Of course, marriage is the most misadvertised institution on earth. Turns out it’s a lot harder than it looks. Riding off […]
I just saw this in “professional” marketing material for an upcoming book directed to women who want to work at home. “BTW, we’re sluts for links so if you have a spot on your web site or blog, please feel free to send us a little link-love.” REALLY? You’re using “SLUTS” in marketing material? Maybe […]

Due to previous years of party exhaustion we have instituted Extended Family Christmas on Christmas Eve. We did stockings and presents for the children. My mother-in-law – always beautifully sentimental – handed down her mother, grandmother’s and her own China. There was a set for each daughter-in-law to be handed down to our daughter(s). Christmas […]
Santa’s cookies are made . . . So let’s talk about stuff. Presents. Gifts under the tree. Santa is bringing Mp3 players. Ainsley is getting an ipod Shuffle. New. She’s getting the one from the Product (Red) Campaign so part of the proceeds went to Aids medication in Africa. Zack is getting one that looks […]

Make spreading JOY your Christmas Tradition and you will find yourself and your family feeling . . . well, Joyous. Don’t believe the ads and marketing – spreading Cheer costs […]
Ainsley’s two grandmothers, eh hem I mean two sets of grandparents, pooled their Christmas dollar to get Ainsley a real American Girl Doll. Doesn’t Kit Kittridge look just like her?
