Not enough exercise. Their/They’re/There still stumps my 12 year old. We move them around too much. I let their pet bunny roast in the Texas sun accidentally. In a rush, I threw the bunny’s corpse into the garbage in front of them. Not enough time spent reading. Too much yelling. All their food is either […]
I am utterly gutted over the pandemic of pornography in our society. It can’t be overstated. Porn is on Instagram. Porn is on Pinterest. It’s also on Facebook (via shared “gifts” in the messenger app.) On WhatsApp, kids are texting each other gifs and links. Web browsers are attached to most apps and video gaming […]
Each time I asked my 13-year-old daughter what she wanted for Christmas, her answer was always the same: Instagram. Every time she said it, my heart sank. I told her it was just about the one thing I could not in good conscience “give” to her. Instagram doesn’t feel like a good gift. It’s the […]

I am not nearly as strict as I used to be with my kiddos and their breakfast, but my favorite go-to cereal for them is maple sweetened oatmeal or grits with cheese and a sprinkle of salt. My favorite cold cereal is actually Wheat Chex. It is inexpensive, low in sugar and high in fiber. You can add some sliced almonds and a sprinkle of cinnamon-sugar and it is always a winner. 🙂
