You always hear how quickly kids grow up, and now I am seeing it in my own daughter. But last night a very special moment unfolded when I least expected it, and I am thankful I took the time to enjoy it.
We cherish the first smile, first giggle, and first steps. Now, the first temper tantrum is one I won’t soon forget. And from what I hear from other mothers, the tantrums should gradually decline in frequency and intensity within the next 20 years.
Finding child care is a struggle for so many families. It can be expensive, hard to find, and a waiting game until you find the right place for your baby. There is a resource in our community that I think every parent should know about before starting a search for child care.
This is a whole new chapter for me. Never before have I tried to juggle being a mother with a full-time career. I know many of you are pros, and I could certainly use your advice on how to balance it all.
**How to say "NO" gracefully.
**Meet the winner of the Biggest Loser.
**Health insurance-- what to do if you're laid off and lose your benefits.
**Plus the Question of the Day.
**We'll see you after Ellen for First at 4.
I get it. I know. Life is crazy when you are a parent trying to juggle everything at once...family, work, relationships. I am no pro, that's for sure, but I hope I can share some insight into stories that truly affect our families. Let's chat, share advice and a few laughs. Oh, the joys of motherhood!
