It is TIME for change:


I got a new job...I get to write for a local PATCH news online. My latest was about advice for parents with little ones.

First of all, I had to come to grips with the fact that even though my kids seem needier, my first priority is my husband. I know it seems strange when the children are little and so needy, but the best thing you can do for your kids is to love your spouse. One thing that has helped my marriage and my parenting is to put the kids to bed early when they are young. read more here:
