FINALLY AN UPDATE...
Well I've been out of the loop for quite some time now and will mercifully give you the shortened version that'll bring me up to date. In March 06 I last spoke of taking my 16 mth? old for another surgery at Sick Kid's in Toronto. Well we got through the surgery of course with a few bumps but...

I KNOW THE KIDS WILL BE FINE>>>
Reluctantly I've had to arrange care for my 7, 5 and 3 year old while I take my 17 month old to Toronto for surgeries. Something I had a really tough time doing. I know they'll be fine but putting this responsibility in the hands of others leaves me uneasy, even though I really do trust them. I...

NEEDINESS BE GONE!
It's starting already and driving me nuts. My husband is trying to grab my attention any way he can before I head to Toronto for a couple weeks. UGH! He's supposed to be an adult! It's my kids that are my priority and they should be his too and this doesn't seem to be the case. It's probably because...

CALLING ALL MOMS! WHAT'S YOUR LAUNDRY RECORD?
I think yesterday I set a record for the greatest number of loads of laundry in an 8 hour time frame, or at least for me! 10! That's pretty high considering I usually only do about 4 per week! What's your record?

FINDING SATISFACTION IN KEEPING THE HOUSE!
I know many childless couples perceive 'keeping house' with a family as effortless. Like we get to sit around all day with our feet up watching soaps and munching. That doesn't really bother me but what I sometimes find difficult is achieving a sense of accomplishment with my chosen 'career.' As a...

HOW MANY KIDS IS TOO MANY?
I know that times have changed and having 6 or 7 kids nowadays is almost unheard of. I grew up a farm girl and hence we had a rather large family, nobody had less than 4 kids. With the current fast paced world I think people have become to caught up in themselves, basically greedy, seeing children...

HOW DO YOU 'ESCAPE?'
When you need a little time off from the hustle and bustle of everyday life what do you do? Does a few hours help you feel reborn or does it take a few days? Are you able to drop the kids off at Grandma's or do they have to go to the sitter? I guess I need both 'quick' escapes and the odd longer...

BATTERY COMPANIES HAVE A PLAN!
Boy do I wish the invention of the battery was by me! You seem to need batteries for EVERYTHING. There are some devices that have even been manufactured so that you can only use batteries. One being the infant swing. Of course it's something I use LOTS with my little ones and you can't buy one with...

CELL PHONE DEBATE
It's seems as if everyone and their dog have a cell phone attached to their ear these days. My husband has one for work and although I don't currently have one I did periodically in the past. Now with 4 kids, another on the way and my frequent stays in Toronto at the Hospital For Sick Children I'm...

Forgetting Important Dates...Does It Mean Anything?
My mind's adrift and I'm wondering if forgetting important dates really means anything? By important dates I mean birthdays, anniversaries, mothers day and fathers day, not the first time you kissed or where you went on you first official date. Growing up nobody EVER forgot my birthday, how could...
