Text Me, Love Mom

Welcome to Text Me, Love Mom where I blog about 'the next stage of parenting' – when the kids have left home and you're looking out for your family from afar. I also go yippee ki-yay over an array of topics. See the ABOUT page to learn more about the book – Text Me, Love Mom, especially if you have the kids leaving home jitters.

Summer After Summer After Summer of Love

Hey – now this is exciting – I’m a guest blogger.  Calgary author, Leanne Shirtliffe, is launching her new book this week – ‘Don’t Lick The Mini Van – and Other Things I Never Thought I’d Say To My Kids’. She has asked me to do a guest spot on her blog about something I never thought I’d say to my own four darlings.  Now there were quite a few of those insane, spur of the stressed-out–moment gems, but read the one I  shared at  http://ironicmom.com/2013/05/23/summer-love/
