When we hear the word Diet, we often think of girls. And while it's true that more young girls and women try dieting than boys and men, as a mom to all boys, I know that self esteem and body issues are hard on both sexes. No one is immune to feeling bad about their bodies and wishing they were more fit, lean, or strong as some of the images they see on tv and magazines. I'm joining Silken Laumann in taking the Never Say Dieting Oath, so that my boys won't learn that behaviour from me. Watch … [Read more...]

The coaches helped a bit, though they did not hold their hands or guide them under their arms or even offer them a chair or device to … [Read more...]

Shopping for boys the same ages as my kids can be a little tricky though, it can be hard to pick out really fun gifts that they want and know they can't have. Kids are greedy like that lol This year, Walmart made my life a little bit … [Read more...]
