On ER visits and Facebook

I am the mama of three boys.  I have experienced my fair share of emergency room visits. Nothing prepared me for Saturday. Jared had been out riding his bike.  He doesn’t have his cell phone because he is on restriction.  A strange number called my phone and my boy was on the other end.  Obviously…

Introducing: Me

Well, hello there! I am Melissa, aka Multi Tasking Mama. That is me (with the glasses) and my friend, Jessie, meeting MckMama at Blissdom. (she is so sweet and genuine in person!! just like on her blog) I have been blogging since June ’08.  Blogging has been such a blessing in my life.  It combines…

Mabel’s Labels BlogHer ’10 Contest

Here is the challenge: Write a post on your blog in response to the following hypothetical situation: Electrical storms are going to wipe out the Internet (perhaps forever).

Suffer the little children…

As most of you know I have a passion for parentless children.  Whether that be orphans in Haiti or foster children here in the United States, I believe in the promise of Psalm 68:6 where the Bible says: God sets the lonely in families… I love that verse.  If you want to be further inspired…

To be honest…

I had a post prepared about a hilarious outing we had last night…a comical attempt to free our deep freezer from the home that is for sale after *someone* bought too much meat at a BOGO sale to fit in the itty bitty teen tiny freezer in the kitchen of our current home. But that…

My husband, the concrete, analytical thinker that he is wanted to know what I learned in the sessions. I learned a lot in the sessions…I learned how to be…

Geometry- check English 9 honors- check Spanish II- check Mama ready to burst into tears at scheduling her son’s classes for HIGH SCHOOL next year- check Every fiber of my being wants to shout NO to all this growing up stuff.  No to girls that are way too forward, no to Facebook, no to later…

Mamavation Monday

I am so proud of the Mamavation moms and Leah Segedie from Bookieboo for coming up with the concept. I had fallen off the Mamavation wagon during the holidays although I was able to make some changes like eliminating soda from our house, switching to all whole grains and trying to increase my physical activity….

Technology and Marriage- a match made in?

I haven’t participated in Wifey Wednesday, hosted by To Love, Honor and Vacuum in quite a while.  But when I read Sheila’s topic for the day I knew God was sending me a message. I have many friends (in real life) who complain about the amount of time their hubby’s sit in front of the…

Somebody to love me….

Wondering if you are worth anything to anyone… Wondering if anyone cares about your future…. Wondering if this is what the rest of your life will look like… Wondering if there is a point to even trying to do your best because no one is there to notice…. I will never forget the year+ that…
