I have feelings too- I have hopes I am full of dreams I wonder about many things I pontificate about Important topics I am deeper than the average Jane There are many layers to me But I never get to explore them I dance to the beat of others’ desires But I have ideas and […]
Read MoreTell Don’t Ask I think one of the things that bugs me the most about parents is that they ask the opinion of their children whom are not even in 1st grade. Sometimes the kids haven’t even been out of diapers for long. So my advice as a child education specialist for over 15 years, […]
Read MoreSo, I don’t have a great family. I don’t really talk about it a lot. My mom has helped me a lot over the last 8-10 years as I have been a single mom and have had contract jobs and have needed financial help from time to time. But I have always been the kid […]
Read MoreSo, because I have worked with children nearly my entire life, I have seen it all. I have seen: the over-pampered, the overachiever, the total underachiever , the troubled, you name it. I have been babysitting since I was 11, which is several decades at this point! I don’t really share my age, but I will […]
Read MoreSo, the title of this post might be misleading. For those of you who aren’t a resident of the DC area or are not DC savvy, the DMV stands for D.C., Maryland, Virginia. I am sure that when you clicked on the post you thought Department of Motor Vehicles. I totally get it. So: Chevy […]

Read MoreWe went sledding at this awesome National Park in our area yesterday. It was beautiful and the hills are enormous! But then, out of nowhere came the “Hill Nazis”. These are moms that had to watch over their children who were all over 8 years old, therefore they decided to watch over everyone else’s as […]
Read MoreMy job situation?? I have been caring for kids in some way/shape or form for 12 years straight. I also have a part-time job that I do from home that I am grateful for, but I am not happy with it. It isn’t a lot of money and it is not fulfilling my dreams. It […]
Read MoreI had to run all over D.C. area today. If I told you the logistics and what I did in between, your head would spin. I’ll keep it simple. I had to pick up 2 kids at 10. Event at 11:15. Treat at 1:30. Pick up another kid at 2. Pool at 230. Drop off […]
