The Wedding Mistakes….

We were invited to a wedding on New Years Eve. Before I get into the typical “Kyla-like” things that happened, I want to add that this was probably the most loving wedding I have ever attended. For some reason, weddings can be stiff and awkward. Have you…

The Girl With The Three Big O’s…..

A few months ago, I got together with a few girlfriends for a little Christmas party. Fantastic food, good wine, giggling women and lots of great talk.  I am not sure how these conversations start with my friends.  They begin something like this….. How much do…

The Lick…..

I was reading Whirlwind a book. In the middle of a sentence, she leaned over and licked me and then asked… “Is that my tongue?” Ummm….. ye-ah. This is what I don’t get. She is almost four years old. She knows that is her tongue….
