Breastfeeding Humor: Milk for Baby

This morning my three-year-old lavished my pregnant belly with kisses for her little sister. I can see her mind working through the fact that there will be a new baby in our lives sometime soon. She stated with great certainty, “The baby will sleep.” (I hope better than you did, sweetie!) I know I cannot […]

One Mother’s Funny New Year’s Resolutions

Resolved:
1. Not to take out my contact lenses for bedtime before I find my darn eyeglasses for reading bedtime stories.
2. Not to do anything incriminating (like, say, shave my nipple hairs) in front of my three-year-old, who will promptly give me away–loudly–to anyone who will listen.
3. Not to let the Cheerios littering the floor of […]
