Quote:
Absolute silence leads to sadness. It is the image of death. – Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Confession:
I hate silence.  I write to discuss things.  And when there is no dialogue I freak out.  When people don’t talk to me, I make up reasons for their silence.
I assume they don’t want to talk to me anymore because I’ve said something they disagree with but don’t want to be impolite.
Or my views don’t match up with theirs anymore.
Or I’ve offended them and was stupid enough [...]

I think people who were addicts make amazing soldiers for God.  When we used, we experienced mind altering highs through drugs or sex or gambling or eating, overwhelming experiences that took us out of this world and into another reality.  Then we kept chasing those highs.  Sometimes we’d settle for a mediocre mind-altering moment, some shitty weed or a quick diddle in the bathroom or a sleeve of Oreos.  But, that was just to tide us over.  To get our [...]

Sharing a confession, quote, and question every Thursday.
Confession:
I let my kids eat cake for breakfast this morning.  As much as they wanted.  It didn’t have frosting on it, so it’s just like pancakes, right?
 Letting them help themselves was heavenly.  Saying yes to them was heavenly.  No arguments.  No negotiating.  No thinking about what to feed them for one meal.  Heavenly.  And guess what, it may have been GOOD for them!  Not just because it made me feel more at ease [...]

We are reading this for book club.  Who isn’t, right?  This “mommy porn” novel is so seductive.  So naughty.  So incredibly…not something I can get into.  And I’m bummed!
It’s not that I can’t enjoy really rough, dirty sex.  In fact, I prefer it.
It’s not even that the writing is so juvenile and obnoxious that I can’t get into Fifty Shades.  Despite the horrible writing, this story is actually a complete and total page turner (or page clicker, since I’m reading [...]

3 Things Thursday- Smile, breathe and go slowly.

Sharing a question, confession, and a quote every Thursday
Confession:
I think had an anxiety attack yesterday.  I hallucinated a little.  My brain froze up.  I had to pass out on the couch for a few minutes.
Sometimes I get so overwhelmed.
If I don’t stop, my body takes over and makes me stop.
Today I still have too much on my plate.  Don’t we all?  Any perceived free time and my brain starts stuffing it full with tasks and goals and creations as soon as my [...]

 

Worry. Worry. Worry.

http://wildchildmama.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Kjersti-mohawk-medium8-143x190.jpg

“Hi Mom!”  I sing into the phone.  I call everyday to see how she is doing.
I hear her on the other end.  Her voice is raspy and wheezy, as if she’s talking through a harmonica.
“What, mom?”
“I.  Fell.  I. Fell.  I’m.  On the.  Kitchen.  Floor”
“What, mom?  What?  You fell?  Are you ok?  What happened?”  I ask too many questions for her to answer.  Not because she doesn’t want to.  Not because she has fallen and is hurt.  But because she can’t [...]

 

3 Things Thursday – Parenting

http://wildchildmama.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Kjersti-mohawk-medium7-143x190.jpg

Sharing a confession, question, and quote every Thursday.
Confession:  I used to judge you.  Those of you, while on long car rides or sitting at a restaurant table with your family, would let your children watch TV.  Disgusting! I’d think.  What a cop out.  They  just rely on technology to numb their kids rather than deal with them!  I will NEVER do that .  
Hahahahaha.  Yeah.  That was before I had kids.
I don’t do it often but yesterday, while at JoAnn Fabrics, [...]

 

I was Selfish

http://wildchildmama.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Kjersti-mohawk-medium6-143x190.jpg

I’d like to take a moment, here, at this particular time in my life, to thank all the people that have put up with me through the many years of my life.  Also, I’d like to like to apologize for how selfish and ignorant I’ve been.
This was going to be a “light-hearted” message provoked by a young person (someone in their late teens/early 20′s) I’ve been interacting with who has been pretty demanding and not very respectful of my time. [...]

 

3 Things Thursday – SEWING!

Three Things Thursday.  Sharing a confession, question, and a quote.
Confession:     I walk through the isles of the fabric store, bouncing my fingertips across the soft bolts of  various prints and shades.  Then something speaks to me, it calls my name, it says:  I am the wind, sew me to the air.  I am a butterfly, sew me to fluttering wings.  I am a cupcake, I need some cherries!  My eyes widen, my tummy tickles, I pull out the [...]

 

Subliminal Messages in Cartoons?

http://wildchildmama.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Kjersti-mohawk-medium4-143x190.jpg

The video I want to share cannot be posted on my blog.  The user has disabled the embedding option (don’t worry if you don’t understand!) Instead, just click the link and go directly to YouTube.  This video shows how subliminal messages are put into children’s cartoon.  If you don’t have time to watch all 10 minutes of it, at least watch the first minute.  You’ll get the idea.
