Did you ever play that game when you were little where you would try to make the other person laugh or smile by saying "Don't Smile.don't smile" over and over again? Remember how hard it was to sit there and keep a straight face when all you wanted to do was burst into laughter? That's how it's been for me lately when I've had to discipline my kids. Unfortunately, my 6 year old seems to have a very similar sense of humor...

The Happy Stanley Family: July 2013
http://happystanclan.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 12, 2013. Confessions of an "Evil" Stepmother. Sometimes being a step parent can be really challenging. It's not like being a "real" parent. At least not in my case. Can I just vent about the separation that is implied with the word "step" or "half"? Why is it that when we use these words there's a stigma that makes us decrease the value of the relationship? Do you know what I mean? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Desiderata- a poem from my mom. I Make Little Girls Cry. I Love Good Deals! The wo...

The Happy Stanley Family: I Make Little Girls Cry
http://happystanclan.blogspot.com/2012/07/i-make-little-girls-cry.html
Tuesday, July 31, 2012. I Make Little Girls Cry. Every time we get into the car and "Why? When I tell Gavin and Zoey that it's time to come inside. I'm not sure why that bugs me so much. Probably because if I ever did that as a kid I would have gotten slapped upside the head! Anyhow, lately Tanner has started getting up with the sun. Literally. As soon as the sun pops up over the horizon he is out of bed and wanting breakfast. This wouldn't be such a big deal if he didn't go to bed at 10:00pm...I know if...

The Happy Stanley Family: Desiderata- a poem from my mom
http://happystanclan.blogspot.com/2010/08/desiderata-poem-from-my-mom.html
Tuesday, August 31, 2010. Desiderata- a poem from my mom. A few years ago when I was going through a really hard time my mom wrote me a letter and inside the letter she attached this poem. Whenever I get the sad feeling that I just can't kick and I feel down, I pull it out and read it again. I pulled it out this morning and made it into a page. Just thought I would share it with all of you. It's brought my lots of support over the last few years, maybe it can do the same for some of you. The world's luck...

The Happy Stanley Family: April 2011
http://happystanclan.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 22, 2011. First off, I got a job! Everyone keeps telling me "don't rush! We were really disappointed and we started to talk about what houses we liked and just couldn't get on the same page at all. What I loved he hated, what he loved I thought was way too small. We decided to pray and wait until after we went through the temple to make a choice. Jon and I woke up this morning with the same house in mind.(If you knew how different our wants were yesterday you would know this was huge! Excit...
