Losing Your Marbles

Let’s talk, and let’s talk honestly: how do they do it? Who, you ask, are they? I mean those superwomen, the wonder-mom’s, who seem to be able to do it all, and do it so easily. Are they a myth or do they really exist? All I know is that I try to measure up to them, but somehow I keep failing miserably. Sometimes I feel like life is a juggling act:…

Quick shot taken right before we rushed him and his 30 Nemo treats to school. In case you need another idea for a school birthday treat, here’s what we did. I completely stole the idea from a friend, who herself found this idea online the year before, so it’s only fair I pass it onto you. Find a few color pages online (Google has a lot of them: google Nemo…
