Light and Momentary: Every year...

Time: first Friday in Lent. Place: inside Jamie's brain.

Jamie's brain, the 2yo part: Let's go to Chick-fil-A and get a chicken biscuit for breakfast!!

Jamie's brain, the sensible part: It's a Friday in Lent. We can do that another time.

Jamie's 2yo brain, 10 minutes later: McDonald's!! Saaaaausage biscuit!! Let's goooooooo!

Jamie's brain, the sensible part: But you don't even like sausage biscuits?

Jamie's brain, the sensible part: Maybe some nice oatmeal with blueberries. How's that?

Jamie's resident 2yo: And bacon! Don't forget the bacon!

Welcome

Welcome to my blog, where I mostly natter on about my life with five kids. Occasionally (not very often, because teenagers keep a person humble) I dispense parenting advice. Occasionally I write about other things, like books. (Those are probably affiliate links in posts about books. If you click through and buy something, Amazon will pay me a little bit of money.) Or faith or food or my secret strategy for dealing with annoying kid behavior or whether I am fit to be a mother. Also: who is the mystery intruder? And: does stay-at-home mothering rot the brain?

If you are worried about slow weight gain in a breastfed baby, this is my most-viewed post — hope it's helpful to you. Want to read more? I have some favorite old posts linked here, or you can find my archives here.
