My first blog

Now that I have a busy husband, four active kids, an old farting dog, and one really old, crochety  cat, I find myself at a loss when I want to call a cute or funny story about my life to memory. I don't know if it's the fabled phenomenon of "mommy brain" or if I'm losing intelligence as I get older, but I need some sort of recorded account of all the great little anecdotes my life provides on a daily basis. Thus, my blog is born.

My hope in calling it Life on the Seesaw is that it serves as a guide for the book I'm currently working on that details my hilarious adventures in parenting. Though it seems somewhat egocentric for me to assume you are the least bit interested in daily musings on my life, maybe reading what I go through as a mom will offer you guidance or provide a much-needed giggle. At the very least, it should make you feel much better about your own life and struggles as a parent. I hope you enjoy having a glimpse into the life of a harried stay-at-home mom.
