http://www.notaperfectmom.com/overparenting-anonymous

Not a perfect mom. November 5, 2013. Hi My name is Lauren and I’m an Overparenter. Group of moms sitting on folding chairs in a semicircle: Hi Lauren. Welcome. It’s very brave of you to admit this publicly. Know that you are not alone. Thanks. It’s good to be here. I feel lighter already. Why don’t you tell us a little bit about what brought you here. I want to show them that it’s okay to go through painful times. If I’m always trying to make things better, what type of example am I setting? She takes gy...

Not a perfect mom. Rage in the Barbie Aisle. March 29, 2014. For the second time in a matter of months, I found myself indignant in the blindingly pink Barbie aisle at Target. My daughter isn’t into Barbies and apparently, given my reaction to all things Barbie, that’s a good thing. But her friends are and I was there buying another sweet 7-year-old a birthday gift. I am not one of those […]. February 2, 2014. My 6yr Old Takes On The Tooth Fairy. January 26, 2014. December 23, 2013. You know, you’re not ...

Not a perfect mom. I’m Not a Regular Mom….I’m a Cool Mom. I’m Not a Regular Mom….I’m a Cool Mom. December 23, 2013. You know, you’re not hip, mom, my nine year old recently said to me with what seemed to be a look of pity in his eyes. Errr, I know, I answered defensively. Of course I’m not hip. I never said I was hip. I never even thought such a thing. But I did. And I am. Aren’t I? How can he not see that? Could it be that despite all of my super-cool attributes, my kids see me as I saw my parents?

Welcome Winter? - Not a perfect mom

http://www.notaperfectmom.com/welcome-winter

Not a perfect mom. November 30, 2013. Aaaah Winter. How I’ve looked forward to your chilly nights with warm blankets and smoky fireplaces, hot chocolate and the welcome of a toasty house on a wintry evening. How I’ve craved the permission your cold gives to stay inside and hibernate. How your calm days allow me to recharge from the frenzied activity of the more temperate months. That’s the third one. It’s all we’ve got! What are you going to wear tomorrow? Winter, I also must have forgotten the almost ma...

Yours, Mine & Ours: Things I'm Loving Thursday

http://yoursmineandours2012.blogspot.com/2014/03/things-im-loving-thursday.html

Yours, Mine and Ours. Photography. Fashion. Food. Fun. Thursday, March 20, 2014. Things I'm Loving Thursday. So here what I'm loving Thursday. I got a Diamond candle for Valentines day. This company sells candles for about $25 and each contains a ring worth $10, $100, $1000 or $10,000. The candles are soy and all natural, don't have a too strong smell and the rings are always beautiful. Only downfall is you can't pick the size of the ring. And of course what I'm NOT liking this week.ugh. We have asked fo...

Not a perfect mom. My 6yr Old Takes On The Tooth Fairy. My 6yr Old Takes On The Tooth Fairy. January 26, 2014. Don’t worry, The Tooth Fairy is safefor now. Even though my six-year-old is an evil genius on par with Darth Vader or El Macho, even though she set a trap so shrewd and wily that I almost fell into it, please know that I have saved the Tooth Fairy, at least for another week. All was well in the world. Until this morning, when Sarah marched angrily up to me and said,. You kept that from us? The P...
