Mom-Stuff.com has a warning for our moms. Please help us spread the word. Do not make this mistake when searching for us DO NOT FORGET THE HYPHEN! When I bought mom-stuff.com web address mom stuff.com (with out the hyphen) was not available. Now that we have build up traffic the owner of this address has a site that is NOT MOM STUFF. I am not saying that moms do not like sex but I do not want you to be confused and think we are associated with this site or their content. I want all of you to be aware this is not a site I can endorse. We are not affiliated with it!!! Had this been a parenting site, as it was promoted on the search engine. I would not be concerned.
Now back to the Mom-Stuff Blog Tour.
I believe Michelle at the Adventures of Supermom is a kindred spirit. I have grown to love her passion for motherhood, her love of yarn but today I found something else we have in common. Neither one of us understand people who are obsessed with TV shows. Several weeks ago I visited Robin at Lolidots and she is a real fan of LOST. If you remember she even had a calendar on her blog counting down the days until the new season. I love the passion but I don’t get it. Michelle posted this story today that made me laugh. Michelle if it makes you feel better I understand you and I know I am not weird. Well maybe just a little weird. What do you guys think? Do you have a TV addiction? Help Michelle and I understand this strange human behavior.
Superdad made me feel all weird last night. (more…)

The Mom-Stuff Blog of the week is the Adventures of Supermom. Michell really is a supermom. The more time I spend on her sight the more I find a mom who takes her responsibility as a mother very seriously. She has very high values and she is teaching them to her children. I think we all can learn something from her. If you have not been to her site make sure you do. You will not be disappointed. I chose this post to share with you because it really made me look at my life. You have heard the saying, less is more. This is something we have to decide for ourselves in every area of our lives. I challenge you to not only read this but to ponder it for a while.
More Isn’t Always Better
I’ve been thinking about blogging about this from time to time but then never get around to it.
Bigger isn’t always better. More isn’t always better. I’m speaking in terms of personal belongings. Like your house and possesions. Things that you acquire thinking you have to have or you will not be complete.
We live in a modest sized house. Yet, we have outgrown our house with all these youngin’s. There is ZERO privacy in this house. Just ask Superdad.
We often get asked about getting a bigger house because we have run out of room. Sure, that would be nice. But it’s not needed. We are very happy with the home we have built together. It couldn’t be in a better location in our town. We are close to everything. (more…)

Today we want to share an article by Michelle from Glubble News.com. Michelle gives us her tips on being a responsible parent and providing a safe environment for her children to learn and grow.
Kids Searching Safely Online
December 16, 2008 by Michelle Lee
There are one or two computers in most homes these days. And most children want their own laptop and cell phone. With so much adult content available on the World Wide Web it is our duty as responsible parents to know what Web sites our kids are visiting and who they are talking to
I want to protect my children from uncontrolled exposure to grown up topics like sex and drugs. These are subjects that should be learned about in the proper environment when the time is right, not from a Google search. (more…)

This week Mom-Stuff Blog Tour visits Michelle at the Adventures of Supermom. Michelle is a mother of four children ranging in age from a teenager to an infant She deal with a lot of things that mothers can relate to. Hormonal teenager behavior. Potty training. Taking a pacifier away. Trying to save money with a bigger family. She tells funny stories and gives helpful advice. She finds her blog to be a great place to express herself. I know you will really enjoy visiting her this week.
Meet Michelle
Hello. My name isn’t really Supermom, it’s Michelle. I don’t even think I would answer to Supermom. I do answer to Mommy, Mom and the sound of crying. That includes when someone is crying Mommy.
I started blogging online over 5 years ago. Before that it was the old fashioned way. Paper and pen. I try to be humorous. I try to be cool. My grammar sucks. I tell it like it is! I try not to cuss but sometimes a dammit or shit will sneak out into text. Forgive me. I learned how to slash through my words so they wouldn’t stick out so much.
I founded The Adventures of Supermom.com to write about having four kids and how busy life can get. I often refer to myself as June Cleaver with leopard print heels and pearls.

Today is our last day st Katherine Center’s blog. We hope you have enjoyed Katherine’s work as much as we have. I want to share with you Katherine’s process in writing a novel. If you have a novel in you I think you will enjoy this. posted Jan 8,2010 on Katherine’s blog, My New New Novel
About five minutes ago, I sent the first three chapters of my new novel to my editor at Random House. It doesn’t have a title yet, and it won’t come out until Spring 2012. But it’s a crazy thrill to have the beginning in solid shape, and to send it off for feedback.
I’ve been watching this new story unfold in little pieces in my head for a long time. I know a lot already about where it’s going in a broad way (though the details are always one surprise after another). But it’s pretty thrilling to see it all actually happen. Does that make sense? It’s one thing to know a character goes for a walk. But it’s another to actually write the scene and BE THERE.
Here are some photos of the writing I’ve been doing over the break. Just for fun. (more…)

The Mom-Stuff Blog of the week is Katherine Center. Katherine is a novelist who’s words flow deep into your heart. I chose this post to share with you because it really touched my soul. She invites us to her grandparent’s ranch on the river with beautiful pictures and she welcomes us into her reflection with her words. “How can we be connected so profoundly and never have meet?” Katherine speaks novels in a very few words.
My grandparents’ ranch is on the Brazos river, a perpetually brown, sandy-bottom river outside Houston. (more…)

The Mom-Stuff Blog Tour is visiting Katherine Center this week. Katherine is an author of three books. Katherine’s first novel, The Bright Side of Disaster, was featured in People Magazine, USA Today, Vanity Fair, the Houston Chronicle, and the Dallas Morning News, among others. Katherine Center’s second novel, Everyone Is Beautiful, is featured in the March issue of Redbook. Kirkus Reviews likens it to the 1950s motherhood classic Please Don’t Eat the Daisies, and says, “Center’s breezy style invites the reader to commiserate, laughing all the way.” Booklist calls it “a superbly written novel filled with unique and resonant characters.” BookPage named Katherine one of seven new writers to watch, and the paperback of Bright Side was a Breakout Title at Target. Katherine recently published an essay in Real Simple Family and has another forthcoming in Because I Love Her: 34 Women Writers on the Mother-Daughter Bond this April. Her third novel, Get Lucky, is on sell now and she is working on a fourth. Today we want to share a post from her blog to remind us that the joys of living have to be spaced over time.
