http://storiesofameanmom.blogspot.com/2012/10/porn-and-motherhood.html
Stories of A Mean Mom. Sunday, October 21, 2012. Lately my Facebook news feed has been inundated with talk of 50 Shades of Grey. I have a super power that allows me to completely ignore any of the political/election posts that may be flooding your screens. What can I say? God has given me a gift). I am sure that you have all read/heard opinions about this particular piece of literature so I will try. The term has bothered me for quite a while. Does it seem oxymoronic to anyone else? Oh my goodness, Court...

Stories of A Mean Mom. Friday, October 18, 2013. To Be Randomly Kind. I feel so overwhelmed with emotions! I don't know if it is the hormones that come from being very near my due date, or if it is lack of sleep, or if it is being on edge from my (hopefully) last semester of grad school, but everything makes me cry. Everything. And lately so many good and touching things have happened that I feel like losing it at any given second. My First Experience of a Random Act of Kindness. It should be noted that ...

You made me wear pants yesterday and the day before. I don't like pants and shorts and skirts. I like wearing no pants. Do I have to wear pants tomorrow? I DON'T WA...

Stories of A Mean Mom. Tuesday, December 16, 2014. Once upon a time there was a princess named Juj. Juj loves to tell stories. They vary in length and plot but they have one common theme.

You always make me a bad guy who dies or tries to hurt people! This one is different! I don't want to hear this story! You won't die or hurt anybody! It can't be their si...

Stories of A Mean Mom. Wednesday, February 11, 2015. I spy two kids who should not play this game. The kids and I like playing games. My kids especially like to play I Spy; not so much the book version, but the version where you actually look around and find something in the room and get the other people to guess. My kids adore this game. My kids are also very, very bad. At this game. And it is adorable. Juj is very specific. She will say, "I spy with my little eye something.that plays DVDs! I thought yo...

Stories of A Mean Mom. Tuesday, May 19, 2015. Chris and I were able to have a wonderful vacation in Florida (maybe more on that later), followed by a beautiful week with our girls at my in-law's in Utah. It was perfection. For example, Chris was carrying a giant container full of water. His friend was there. Chris put the water down and bragged to KJ (Chris' friend) that her dad was strong enough to lift the heavy water. KJ said, "Oh, like this? Well, my dad can throw us in the air, so hmph! The girls we...

Stories of A Mean Mom. Wednesday, June 3, 2015. I know you guys are already familiar with Popeye (5) and Juju (almost 4). Moving forward you will probably start hearing a lot of stories about their little sister, Gus (18 months). Background information for the first tidbit: Gus responds to questions in one of four ways. Her responses are always, "pizza," "Popeye, Juju," "thank you," or "no." If she means yes, she still says no. Me: Okay guys. Remember what we talked about? Popeye: Oh my goodness! Sometim...
