Let me start by saying in my defense, I got my pool in the middle of the pandemic. I was homeschooling my kiddos, they needed something to do for 'P.E.' and I needed them out of my hair for a couple of hours a day. Not to mention everyone had the exact same idea in 2020 so the fact that we actually found 1 on store shelves felt like a sign from the pool gods.

Parents, there are not many days left in the school year. Wow! Where did the year go? It flew by. I know as parents, we are counting down the days to hear, 'I'm bored,' while our little ones are counting down to summer freedom! Staying up late, sleeping all day, pool days, sleepovers, outdoor activities and fun!

I told my little one that National Take Your Kids To Work Day was coming up and her response was, what is that? I explained how it is a day for littles to go to work with mom or dad and see what it is they do for a living? She immediately said, 'no thank you that would be boring.' Excuse you? Do you know who your mother is? Do you know what I do? lol Yes, I was offended by my 8-year-old!

I am a mother of 3, I've got quite a bit of mom knowledge under my belt but I still do not vow to know everything. I mean, almost but not quite. (I kid, I kid) I have a group of fellow mothers and my kiddos friend's moms whom I reach out to for advice and vice versa. It is extremely important to have a good circle of friends you can reach out to for a little help from time to time. Trust me when I

As summer creeps closer and closer, wouldn't it be nice to get your kid's playroom or bedroom in order and organized before they're home for the summer? Spring cleaning is the perfect time to start this project. Most of these organizers are low to the ground and perfect for encouraging kids to clean up after themselves and manage their toys!

Look, I get it. Trust me when I say I know the real meaning of Easter and it is such a beautiful celebration. Well, except for 1 little thing. There is something about Easter that I can absolutely do without and I think some moms would agree with me.

Encouraging kids and students to learn about STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) has a ton of benefits: creativity, ingenuity, problem-solving skills, and more! In addition to these great benefits, a lot of STEM kits and toys are, simply put, a whole lot of fun. Since many of these kits may require adult supervision, they are great activities for the whole family. Whether you’re shopping for a kid or someone who is a kid at heart, here are some of the most exciting STEM kits that are sure to incite delight and wonder!

I had an awesome childhood. Some of my best, fondest, most vivid memories come from me camping with my family. That is what we did growing up. I spent time at some of the best campgrounds across the state of Texas. From Brownwood to Colorado City, Garner State Park, Big Bend, and everything in between, I have experienced them all in a little Rockwood pop-up camper! Can I just say, campgrounds have

What is it they say...yoga pants, drunk folks, and kids tell the truth? Ain't that the truth! Have you ever tried asking your kids what they think of you? To be honest, sometimes you don't even have to ask, some days the info is just offered, unsolicited. Like the other day, close to bedtime when my 8-year-old says out of the blue, 'you look different without makeup.' (a look of disapproval on her
