My Daughter Thinks I’m Mooching Off “Daddy’s Money”

June 8, 2017 by Risa Green Leave a Comment

A few nights ago, I had an OMG moment with my daughter.  Not OMG like, OMG, she did something horrible.  This was more of an "OMG, is that what she really thinks?" kind of a thing.We were discussing something about the new house we’re building, and she wanted to know why my husband and I get to have jets in our bathtub but she doesn’t get to have them in hers.  I … [Read more...] about My Daughter Thinks I’m Mooching Off “Daddy’s Money”

My Son’s, Um, Interesting Idea Of Where Babies Come From

May 20, 2017 by Risa Green Leave a Comment

When my daughter was five, she starting asking questions about how babies are made. How does a baby get in a mommy’s tummy? How does a baby get out of a mommy’s tummy?

There is another reason why I … [Read more...] about From Trader Joe’s to Spanx, 12 Small Things I’m Thankful For

Mom Guilt For All The Wrong Reasons

September 20, 2016 by Risa Green Leave a Comment

Aside from love, I think that guilt is probably the strongest, most universal emotion that parents experience.  We feel guilty from the time our babies are born, about everything: for not breastfeeding long enough, for leaving them on a Saturday morning to go to the gym, for going back to work, for letting them watch TV, for keeping them in a wet diaper for too long, and on and … [Read more...] about Mom Guilt For All The Wrong Reasons
