Where is Caylee?  

Tuesday, August 5, 2008

I wasn't going to write about little Caylee Anthony (the missing 2-year-old from Florida) because I wanted to keep my blog light and happy... but I just can't help it. Everyday the media continues to dig deeper and deeper into the case of the missing toddler and everyday my heart brakes a little more for this missing child.

[The picture to the right is of Caylee Anthony. She has been missing since early summer. If you have seen Caylee please call authorities immediately]

The entire story seems so "shady"... someone knows where that little baby is and I can't help but think the outcome will not be good. Wanting a baby so badly I can't seem to wrap my head around how a mother could not seem to want hers. The moms over at MomLogic questioned their readers today, "Is Casey Anthony a Criminal Mom?" While it's not my place to sit in judgment of this mother... it is so hard to not jump to the conclusion that she is in fact a criminal mom and worse a mom that didn't care enough for her daughter to take care of her properly, didn't care enough to protect her.

So now with the rest of the country I sit and wait and wonder, where is Caylee? Will she ever come home? Only God knows and unlike her own mother, God will never abandon little Caylee. Wherever she is, she is not alone.

Join me in saying a prayer for her and all of the other missing children.

"Mom's" the Word... at Least it's Gonna Be  

Thursday, July 10, 2008

I have some friends whose children call their grandmothers things other than "grandma". One goes by "gammy", one by "nana" and another by "g-ma." I never did this with my grandmother, she was always just "grandma". Apparently I am behind the times.

An article from MomLogic today discusses whether or not it's okay for your kids to call you something other than mom? If they don't call you mom... what will they call you? I'm sure by the time their teenagers my kids may want to call me all the names in the book but while they're little, my children (when I'm blessed with them) will call me "mom".

How bout you?

Do your kids call you anything other than "mom"?

Separating Conception Fact from Fiction  

Tuesday, June 24, 2008

Being on the journey towards "mommyhood" and TTC (trying to conceive) means that I am on the outlook for all the good info I can get. While surfing the web today I found an article on MomLogic that was insightful and thought you might all enjoy it too. It's dated May 1st of this year... but the date doesn't make a difference in separating fact from fiction.

Here are the four conception myths that editor-in-chief Kim Hahn of Conceive magazine addresses for the MomLogic readers...

Myth #1. Have as much sex as possible
Myth #2. Women are to blame for most infertility
Myth #3. You can't control what you have
Myth #4. Having baby sex feels like a chore

Check out Kim's answers on MomLogic.
