a little overreaction never hurt anyone
I admit it...I'm a worrier... when it comes to my people if things aren't going smoothly I tend to get a little concerned. That's an understatement.A really big understatement.I don't fly off the handle and force them into the hospital for a cold but I will stay by their side as much as humanly possible … Continue reading a little overreaction never hurt anyone
the hidden
As I walk the aisles of the grocery store it remains hidden beneath a pile of fresh produce. Mushrooms, onions, oranges, lettuce, broccoli... they all lay atop it. They mask it's presence with their beautiful colors...I push on. Finding cheeses, whole grain breads, yogurt, healthy snacks...At last it's time to check out and I push … Continue reading the hidden

My brother wasn't allowed to date at the age of 13 and lauded for sexual prowess and neither was I.My father worked hard to make ends meet … Continue reading the feminist mystique

It's just what I do.This morning one post caught my eye... One post … Continue reading first thing

Every morning during the week I wake up at 6:30 AM.It's painful, the noise of my little bobbing alarm clock. It tugs at the tail of my dreams as though it were a kitten unraveling a knitted blanket. It jabs and pokes and then just starts to walk away with bits of my dream following … Continue reading school uniform…
me on a Tuesday
I should have thought this all through better...there is too much to do and not enough time...there certainly isn't enough time for a proper post.even as I sit here and type this I am stretching my neck to peek into the bathroom to menace my child into brushing her teeth because we need to leave … Continue reading me on a Tuesday
the mommification of CamiKaos

I don't think it ever was a mommy blog, though it certainly is a blog … Continue reading the mommification of CamiKaos
