All hail the Belly Button
Some kids have a favorite blankie. Some kids suck their finger or thumb. Some are attached to a pacifier, nuk, doo-dah, whatever you call it. Others have a favorite stuffed animal. For my daughter – her source of comfort and object of self-soothing is her belly button. From the day she found it, Miss A…
Soon there will be “shour” of us
In the words of Aishtyn, who has issues with articulating the letter “F” (hence, she wears “shlip-shlops,” likes to eat “shrench shries,” and calls people on the “shone”…however she says “flamingo” perfectly clear, so I know the child CAN do it…) anyways, as Aishtyn, says, “soon there will be shour of us.” Yes, that’s right.…
Costume Controversy
It’s Halloween! Time to choose a costume, dress up and get some candy, candy, candy! As a theatre-type-person, I have always loved dressing up and pretending to be somebody else, whether for a holiday or otherwise, and my daughter is much the same – having a wardrobe of costumes and accessories of such magnitude I…
Houses don’t have birthdays.

The Cost of Help is High These Days
The other day my MIL decided to drop off a bunch of stuff – why? I don’t know, I guess we need more stuff. Anyways, Aishtyn offers to help carry in the boxes, and when she is finished, tells Nana that she owes her, “Ten bucks.” Apparently, there are no free rides in Aishtyn’s town…

Having Kids Wreaks Havoc on One’s Body Image
I’m not talking about the process of carrying, delivering, and breastfeeding a child (though, God knows that does enough damage to your body to make anyone wear unrelieved black from head to toe). No. What I’m referring to is the unabashed, unwelcome observations that children (a certain 4 year old red head in particular) make…
Reviews by A.J.
At the moment, my website consists entirely of this blog – but hopefully I can eventually expand upon it – adding various pieces of interest and categories to appeal to the masses and appease my cluttered brain. Something I’d like to add is a series of music, movie, television, book, and even food reviews done…
