I think my darling Luna Pie makes polka dots on polka dots look like all the rage. Who wouldn’t want to look that cute? I love that my kids inspire me to take fashion risks.

In a marriage there are bound to be ups and downs. You have to keep it all in perspective and find the funny wherever you can. I love me some everyday marriage humor, the kind of humor that happens sin querer queriendo (unintentionally) is bound to make me laugh over and over again. For example, […]

Personal Forecast for the Day (Fragmented Fridays)

Fragmented Fridays

Unknown Mami: Yeah, I’m just tired. FIS: Welcome to my world. UM: You have no idea. Go find a three-year-old and a one-year-old to take care of, but […]
