10 Things I Can’t Live Without

Monday, May 13th, 2013

Good morning and Happy Monday! I hope that those that celebrated Mother’s Day yesterday did so with an abundance of love. Mother’s Day is by far, my favorite day of the year. It’s like one giant tribe celebration of like-minded exhausted people and friends. I love it. I was spoiled by my 3 men with tons of love, and some GREAT cards.

For example…

I got roses from my 6 year old. “Eema” roses actually, it means Mom in Hebrew:

rose

I got this card from my 9 year old. So sweet – he used my name in beautiful french adjectives:

Spring Activities Are Almost Here – How Moms Can Stay Organized with Microsoft @Office 365

Thursday, April 4th, 2013

For those of you who might remember, I became a Spokesperson for Microsoft Office last year. It was thrilling, because I haven’t lived A DAY without Microsoft Office for the past 15 years. So, I was super excited last month to announce that I am also an Ambassador for the NEW Microsoft Office 365, a great new offering for women on the go like you and me.

Perhaps you have been using Microsoft Office like me for many years, or perhaps you’re just getting started. Yup, as a businesswoman and mom, these are some powerful and useful programs I simply cannot live without. Yes, I run Office on my Mac now, so Mac or PC, you’re covered!

The Little Things are the Big Things

Friday, November 2nd, 2012

I don’t often share the press we receive, but yesterday, two nice interviews came out and I wanted to share them with you. One of the interviewers used my answer to title the article. I’m so glad they did, because it is how I feel. The little things truly ARE the big things in life. I don’t think we realize this enough.

I was honored to be named ‘Super Mom of the Week’ on a great website Big City Moms that features super moms. Looking at the list of women, I am humbled to be in their company.

Interview With Denise Richards – Career, Motherhood, Body Image, Charlie Sheen and More…

Tuesday, October 30th, 2012

I spent the afternoon in New York last week with long distance friend, mom, and actress Denise Richards. We chatted over tea and scones, and then I decided to ask her some questions and find out what it’s like to be a single, working mom in the spotlight.

Denise was candid, honest and sincere about her life. I give you, our interview…

ED – Denise, can you tell us a little about your upbringing. Did you know from a young age that you wanted to be an actress? When and how did you get that lucky break?

DR – I grew up in a small town outside outside of Chicago. I grew up very differently than how my girls are growing up today. My mom was a stay at home mother. We were actually a Nielsen family – we were your all around typical American family. Family of 4. Very close. My father, my sister and I were part of a father-daughter group called The Drifters. My mom had dinner on the table every night at 6 o’clock. Everything was about family growing up.

Wordless Wednesday: Sacrifice

Wednesday, October 3rd, 2012

Thank you mom for sending this. I loved it, and had to share.

During an early morning response to a house fire in Santa Rose de Temuco, Chile , firefighters witnessed the unbelievable. A mother dog risked her life to save her puppies from the fire surrounding the burning house, which started because of a car bomb.

The mother dog, Amanda, raced back and forth between the house, putting her 10 day old puppies in the safest place she could find – a firetruck!

Are You A Sh*tty Mom? You’re Not Alone

Friday, September 7th, 2012

By Guest Blogger Karen Moline

Just as every mom has the moment she first laid eyes on her child indelibly tattooed on her cortex—you know, the part of your brain that, soon thereafter, spurts out Ohmigod it must be the plague the first time your baby gets a rash, or Ohmigod I can’t believe my precious little sweetheart just belted that kid in the kisser before you’ve even had a chance to open your mouth to deny it. Every mom remembers her first totally, irredeemably, irrefutably Sh*tty Mom Moment.

Mine came when my ‘every-day-is-Halloween’ son was about three, and deeply entrenched in his Cruella De Vil and 101 Dalmatians phase. His aunt got him a Dalmatian-print bathrobe and I scored a replica of Cruella’s little handbag from the Disney Store, and we went to the local costume emporium for a long cigarette holder to complete the look. My son instantly spied the fake cigarettes hanging between the plastic puke and whoopee cushions. “Look, Mommy!” he shouted. “You have to get them for me. Please, please, pul-eeze! Cruella is always smoking! I neeeeeed them!”
