UGH....it's a dreaded standardized testing morning. I'm singing very loudly, "Don't believe the hype" in my best Flava Flav voice. It's Day One of two days of testing for my boys. I hate that the school pushes all of that testing anxiety into my home! If left up to me, nothing would be different. My kids are on a schedule and get good sleep every school night. I make some semblance of a hot breakfast daily! So why all of the pressure pushed down to them to do so many extra things in prepa...

Having three kids, I would love it if I were always organized enough to have the stars and moon line up just so in my favor so that all of my reminders would be perfectly timed and in sync with everything I need to do in any given day.

Well, since I am actually human and I probably bleed merlot...looks like that won't be happening anytime soon. But I did stumble acr...

Thanks for tuning in!! Take a look at the pictures from Great Day Houston this week. />...
