That First Year Of Marriage Is No Cakewalk — Especially In A Blended Family

aftermath of my plant trimming frenzies, and our combined failure to create a
semi-regular laundry schedule irks us both.”
Are you the super-tight sheet-corner partner, or are you wrong? KIDDING!!!

I Have To Watch What I Say About My Body Around My Sons, Too
[[link removed]]
Katie Bingham-Smith caught herself talking negatively about her body in front of
her son recently: “I started talking about my flaws, as I see them: my cellulite
[[link removed]],
my hair that always seems to get frizzy after sweating no matter how I style it,
and the extra skin I have on my lower stomach after giving birth to three kids.
Then I realized what I was doing: I was putting myself down in front of my son,
