I’m working with Luvs Diapers who, knowing that many moms do things differently the second time around, have developed a series of “First Kid/Second Kid” online videos comparing the way many parents were with their first kid and how things changed with their second child. I just watched the 4 videos and had a good laugh.

I am a single mother of two and I was thinking, since we are hardly home due to kids after school activities… and when the kids are home, they play / do homework / read… tv is the last thing on all of our minds. In the back of my mind, with everything that went on, I thought to myself, what would my grandmother do?

I pulled some old photos just so you could see them, because I thought they looked really nice… And I kept the jewelry toned down with this beautiful pendant my Dad designed for my Grandmother and I inherited. My mother and sister have copies as well, so I was glad to inherit this one, because I like the idea of us all having one to wear.

I am the mother of one daughter and grandmother of one grandson and we all (along with my son-in-law) live together in North Carolina with my 2 sweet dogs and my daughter’s 2 sort-of sweet cats. While I am willing to admit that some wallpaper is attractive, I cannot look at it without assessing how much work it is to remove!

And when I cook my great-grandmother’s matzo ball soup recipe, I’m connected to all of the memories of her I hold dearest. He works in the restaurant industry and we love going and trying a new chef’s masterpiece. When my family is at home, and we’re all tired, a warm meal on a cold day can revive us all.

My grandson has access to toys that are more powerful than some of the first computers that I worked on! Smart Apps for Kids got a lot of really good buzz around the internet and was recommended by mothers, grandmothers and educators that I know personally (always a good sign). Kids are inundated with technology these days.

Some was hers, some her mothers, some her grandmothers, even her daughters. I also love the way it goes with my collectible Buffy watch. And then Sunday my friend Mikal brought over a chest full of old costume jewelry that had belonged to various members of her family. I combed through it (SO FUN) and she let me take pieces I liked!

Family Balance Sheet

MARCH 4, 2015

I’m single, have a grown daughter, I’ll soon be a grandmother and I’m a care taker to my elderly mother. Boring I know, but I’m a home body so it works for me. Having spent many years working in the mental health field, this approach worked for me because psychology, spirituality and self-help was of particular interest to me.

My great grandmother (my grandfather’s mother on my dad’s side) made the cardigan for my Grandmama when she was a young bride. I wish I worked this pendant into my wardrobe more often. Normally if something can’t be smoothed out with Downy Wrinkle Release, it’s dead to me. I got it at a multi-family yard sale this summer….for
