The Motherhood Maternity: Simplify. Relax. And unload.

KEEP YOUR MIND AND FUNNY BONE IN TUNE WHILE NURSING OR AVOIDING OTHER CHORES. CHECK THESE AREAS OUT!

Here's a starter course for the Motherhood Maternity ... activities for those in the trenches. I'm on my third baby right now. Not literally ON the baby. We have four kids total – college son Bruce (who my husband brought with him), Nathan the seven-year-old, Emma the five-year-old and Lilly, fresh flower, born seven months ago.




Sometimes you get overloaded with joy and next meals. It helps to have mindless and fun distractions to relax with and unwind to while on this too-busy mom-life path. And sometimes you just need to vent.

This is the spot to SIMPLIFY and UNLOAD. So you can fit more stuff in your brain, or just enjoy the echo.

Click the links below to go to places I have gone -- and add your own secret places and little horrors, and then maybe we'll have a million of them. Join the Motherhood Maternity.

ESCAPE

Stop thinking, cooking, washing. Come let your mind drool a bit and forget about the challenges of momness for awhile.

THE HORROR OF NOW, or THE NEW TREND AT MY HOUSE

What is the newest annoying thing your kid is doing this week?

RECIPES

Our family is always looking for easy and fun things to cook with the kids, to kill time and get messy.

PETS

No mother's home would be complete without the animal element.

DREAMS / DREAM VACATIONS / INSPIRATION

I always want to be inspired. Or dream.



And other members of the Motherhood Maternity: sites that are worth visiting


Here's a parenting site I found that interests me.

This is the way it presents itself: "Discover the simple but profound difference clear, firm and consistent parenting advice will bring to your family. Read how to enhance your children's happiness, self esteem and responsibility while increasing and developing your own emotional maturity as adults and parents."

Here's one that is a mother's guide to what’s out there in terms of baby books for and about the under 3 set.

This site is by a parent for parents. "I know you are far too busy to read EVERY book there is on parenting so I want to help you out and guide you towards reading just the right ones for you," says the site's editor.

Here is a blog by a woman and mother who makes me feel good about being both

This woman -- Jen Lemon -- would be the president of the Motherhood Maternity if there really was one. Scroll around and check out some of her videos ... spend some time and close the window and you will return here.
