I'm just another working mom seeking a few moments of Zen and zinfandel between soccer practice and supper. My former beach bartender husband founded MouseCalls Computer Services here in Nashville. I believe laughter is the best medicine, especially when regularly administered with a good glass of wine, or three. Email me at blondemomblog@gmail.com

Back When Sticking Her Tongue Out Was An Involuntary Reflex



Ladybug, originally uploaded by blondemom.


Miss A’s first Halloween in 2005. One of my all-time favorite photos. That baby tongue would give Gene Simmons a run for his money!


I must mommy MacGyver a snow princess costume by 5 p.m. using nothing but my bare hands and a bag of assorted snowflake theme accessories procured from the Dollar Tree. Spit and duct tape may also be involved, as will wine. Please lay hands on your computer now and send me your Martha juju. Lord knows I will need it.


Nothing like an eleventh hour change of costume. At least Miss A is content with a kitty costume “inherited”’ from Miss C!


By the way, have you seen my keys?

    Oh yeah! Good Luck with that. We went through a last minute costume change as well when I got screams of “NO FROGGY!!”. Maddie will now be an 80’s rocker chick (at 2 years old)

    I’m eager to see what you came up with a la the spit and duct tape. ;-)
