Just Another Wordless Wednesday…The Diva’s 1st Grey Hair

Yes, you read that right. My FIVE year old has grey hair. What the hell is that about? She’s FIVE. At least I was seven when my Big Bro found mine. Heh. I plucked that sucker out, put it in an envelop and marked it “The Diva’s 1st Grey Hair 8/2/10, Age 5 years 5 […]
Just Another Wordless Wednesday…Ballerina Faerie

The Diva is, shall we say, a bit eccentric. What? But she’s only five, how can she be eccentric?!?! If you lived with her, you’d know what I am talking about. She has always been different. She is extremely intelligent, very creative and has a boundless imagination. Her imaginary friend is a boy. His name […]
Just Another Wordless Wednesday…Last Day Of School

The Diva graduated from preschool at the end of last month. She starts Kindergarten on August 11th. Summer is only 6 weeks long this year. At this point, I am kind of happy about that because I am having trouble getting her to understand that just because Mommy gets up from the computer, doesn’t mean […]
Freaky Fun House Diva

Sunday night, I thought I would get all industrious and edit my Wordless Wednesday photos early, get the draft set to post and be ahead of the game. But that didn’t exactly happen. I have a new graphics photo editing program and it has many more capabilities than my old one. And the photos became […]
Family Portrait

Growing up in the family I did was not easy…not by a long shot. I’ve already talked about my Mother and her craziness and how it has affected me and my Big Bro. It sucks giant donkey balls to not know that you can count on your Mom to love you unconditionally and be there […]
The Diva Needs A Toy Box

I have been on a mission for a while now to get The Diva a good toy box. The old diaper boxes just aren’t working anymore. The problem is that all the ones I have found are either too small or too expensive and I certainly can’t afford a custom job. I think I will […]
Just Another Wordless Wednesday…{In My Shoes}

I guess it was bound to happen at some point, I just never expected it to occur a mere few days after she turned 5. Seeing this made both proud and sad. Next, she will be into my make-up and dress clothes. My baby is growing up, far too quickly for my taste. I cannot […]
How To Make Green Eggs And Ham…Or Not

Last week was Dr. Seuss’ birthday and it was celebrated at The Diva’s school. Ever since then, she has been obsessed with him. And Green Eggs and Ham. Yesterday was The Diva’s 5th birthday and when asked what she would like for her special meal, she said, you guessed it, Green Eggs And Ham. Being […]
Happy 5th Birthday To My Baby Girl!!!

Oh Miss Ro, today is your 5th birthday. I cannot believe that my baby is so big now! You have almost finished your first year of school and you are doing so well. You can write your whole name, read books, draw beautiful pictures and are so creative. You are so intelligent that I had […]
Just Another Wordless Wednesday…

It’s the psychedelic tube monster…. And because it’s Mardi Gras…. And yes, I made both images. I am an aspiring graphic designer, after all. 😛 For more Wordless Wednesdays/Wordful Wednesdays, please visit The Mud Bug, 5 Minutes For Mom, Potamus Prefers,and WordlessWednesday.com {HQ}.
Anxiety: Picking The Right Kindergarten

Last week, I had to go to our school district to ask for a transfer for The Diva. The school the district wants her to go to is over 7 miles away and they want her to take the bus. Yeah, not in this lifetime will I allow my daughter to ride a school bus […]
Just Another Wordless Wednesday… {The Diva’s New ‘Do}

Monday night, The Diva hacked off huge chunks of her hair with her safety scissors. I was so upset {and still am}, that I was crying. My baby had such beautiful long hair. Nearly down to her waist. Now, it’s at or above her shoulders in some spots. And her bangs…oh don’t go there. Well, […]
