A Crafty Mom's Blog

I am a mother. I take my job seriously. Too much so sometimes. My life right now consists of raising Thing 1 (4 years old), Thing 2 ( 2 1/2) and Thing 3 (just a babe). I also take care of Thing 4 (our 5 year old cocker spaniel) and Thing 5, a 30-something husband and dad. When I am not "mom-ing" I might have a spare minute for some of the crafts that I love, including stamping, scrapbooking, beading, and knitting to name a few.

Need a Crash Course on Sleep
