Shit. I've always worried that I'm too sincere. Now confirmed, I'll be cowering under a pile of ballasx.

You poor thing! I outlawed Pinkalicious. One book and I was out. Nancy, however, is not my favorite but rather tolerable. At least Fancy Nancy is vocabulary-centric.

I have only had one child, but have had the blessing (?) of taking care of my siblings' children at various points. Read more

That is fucking insane. I don't think I have words beyond that.

It's completely insane. I listened to the whole thing with my mouth open. Read more

I would rap Warren G and Nate Dog to my daughter. #notproud
