    O/T: Is this another double standard? Please advise

    Hello again, Well, I’ve finally managed to weed out of my ex-boyfriend his real reasons for ending our relationship. The one that hurt the most and is the most hypocritical is this - he himself has been divorced for 10 years and has a 13 year old son that he has full time custody of. I...

    The cutest thing

    Sorry guys - this is a real "gushy" post but my little boy did the cutest thing today. He's going through a phase of grabbing things tightly and not wanting to let go. I was feeding him in a chair which has several wrungs on the backrest. After feeding him, I tried to get up but couldn't. Max...
