I just wanted to post a short little note, mostly for myself I think, to pause and reflect. Two years ago today I bit the bullet and started MapleMouseMama. I started to take my writing a little bit more seriously, but I also wanted to have fun with it. And I can say without a […]
With a little Faith, Trust & Pixie Dust MapleMouseMama turns Two!
It is hard for me to believe that on August 31st of this year the little blog that could will be turning two!! To some that is maybe not such a huge deal, but for me, well I count it as one of my biggest accomplishments. Right up there with childbirth it is. 🙂 I […]
When You Define Perfection Don’t Look At Me….
Lately I find it hard to fall asleep at night. I am plagued by all of the things I have done wrong as a parent. I can’t figure out exactly what those things are, but I surely must have done them because my kids have turned out, well, not exactly perfect. I know that no […]
A Letter to My Child’s Teacher, Whom I Suspect is a Sadist: Revisited
As the start of school rolls around some of you might need a laugh. I know I did and I think I am still peeing a little. Read what Ginny has to say about shopping for school supplies in “Praying for Darwin“. You will thank me, I promise. 🙂 FT&PD Suz
My Magical Moment: July 2013
You know the summer is slipping by way too fast when I am posting My Magical Moment for July already! Why is it that the cold winter months take forever to move along, but the beautiful summer days just fly by? Not fair. 🙁 July brought about a few wonderful moments. It all started on […]
#CAARewards #TeamChicky
Okay so I know that you know that I don’t usually put hashtags in my post titles. I don’t put them in the post itself either. Not because I don’t care, but mostly because I never really understood the why part. I will admit it, I am Twitterless ( as in clueless ) when it […]
My Magical Moment: June 2013
June was a pretty busy month since school was wrapping up for the year, along with the last few swimming lessons for the kids and Girl Guides for Emily! Emily had a great report card and both kiddos have passed on to the next level of swimming. William is taking after his big sister and […]
Two Cents Tuesday: School Bus Boundaries
I have to say it is nice that school is out for the summer and the kids can relax for a bit. I know many a mom and dad who are just happy to have a break from making lunches for awhile. 🙂 This time of year is usually pretty upbeat, but this year there […]
“That” Age Has Hit Me..
This past weekend I received the devastating news that my beloved friend’s husband had passed away. 🙁 Rest peacefully Mike… While completely overwhelming, this news was not a big surprise as that horrible disease called cancer ( I will not make it stand out by putting a capital “c”) invaded this family over two years […]
My Magical Moment: May 2013
This past month, May 2013, had many mini magical moments for me. In my mind the “normal” definition of magic does not really fit these events, but I believe that magic is the thing, the time, the happening, the event that makes you feel special, invokes a variety of emotions and makes you feel alive.
