An Important Announcement - The All New Mommyfesto

I am so ambitious. Not only am I recommitted to blogging, but I am adding two regular features to the blog. The first (which you will notice has already appeared on the right side of your screen) is a monthly poll. I think you'll like it - we all appreciate being validated in our choices, even when they are bad, and taking and watching the poll can offer hard evidence that you are not alone in those choices. The second is still being worked out, but since we're so close I'll tell you anyway. I'm going to add an advice section, an "Ask Mommyfesto" if you will (should you have a better idea for a name, by all means tell me). Just like Ann Landers I'll listen to your parenting problems and tell you exactly what Mommyfesto along with an expert panel (thank you Wiki!) would do in your shoes. File that under "Coming Soon" and send me your questions in the meantime.

I can't wait for the advice column!

No, literally, I can't wait. I have a parenting dilemma on my hands as I type. My oldest daughter's tadpole is dying. As in, belly-up but still twitching it's tail occasionally. Daughter is distraught, of course, but has asked me to please bury him in the yard after he passes and when she's in bed (she doesn't want her last memory of Swimmy to be him wrapped in a wad of toilet paper).

My question? Dump him down the toilet as soon as I tuck her in tonight or honor her wishes and let the thing suffer and then bury him in the yard (and let me suffer)?

Wait. Was I supposed to email this question to you?

Hello -
I am a casting for a major cable network and we are currently looking for outgoing and dynamic super moms who can show us how fun, busy, exciting and hectic it is to be an elementary school mom.

We are looking for moms with great personalities that play an active role in their child's education and school activities. We have been talking with the National PTA and they seem very excited about this opportunity.

Please feel free to contact me anytime and feel free to pass my info along to those you see fit.

Thank you!
