Just Another Wordless Wednesday…

The week before Thanksgiving I had this adorable little Pilgrim. The night before Thanksgiving, I got a precocious Smurf. And this is also why The Diva will never get her paints again. HEH. Thanks Crayola paints. I appreciate it. For more Wordless Wednesdays/Wordful Wednesdays, please visit 5 Minutes For Mom, and WordlessWednesday.com {HQ}
But She’s My Baby

The Diva got her first kiss. From a boy. At school, on Wednesday. He kissed her on the nose. He’s five. Ro is is 5 3/4. She says she doesn’t really like him. The kiss happened after they complimented each other’s school pictures. After Mrs. M told us what happened, his mother looked at me […]
Things The Diva Said {Or Did}…

It’s been a while since I did one of these posts. The ones where I announce to the world the crazy things that come out of my amazing daughter’s mouth. But she has said some things lately that made me {and whoever I may be on the phone with at the time}, spit out whatever […]
Just Another Wordless Wednesday….{The Many Styles Of The Diva}

Oh that Diva of mine….she has her own style to be sure. She loves to dress up in pretty things. Then go climb a tree or make mud pies. She is a girly Tom-Boy. Just like her Mama. Only I was always shoeless. Climbing trees, playing in the dirt…beating up the boys who annoyed me. […]
I’m Melting…

It’s a million degrees, we have no central air and I live in The IE. I have put an ice pack on my feet to feel comfortable enough to sleep. I feel like I’m walking through Jell-O with this waking up at o’dark-thirty to get The Diva off to kindergarten. And The Free Range Stupid […]
Reason #31 Why You Should Not Introduce Your Kids To The Music You Grew Up On

Back in June, I found one of those 80’s compilation CD’s on clearance at Target. You know the ones… So this one was 80’s New Wave. Right up my alley. I am a child of the 80’s. I graduated high school in 1989. Yes, I’m old. So? I played this in the car. The Diva […]
Just Another Wordless Wednesday…{The Kindergarten Files}

Today, The Diva starts her first day of kindergarten. Yesterday, we went to Back To School Night and met her teacher. We were given an entire file folder of papers to look through, sign, etc. One of the “packets” was the Kindergarten Handbook. These are the last two pages. You can read for yourself. Anyone […]
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 […]
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 […]
