With a lifestyle that involves an abundance of both travel and tears, I've learned that a sense of humor combined with a great pair of jeans and a shred of organization can help overcome everyday parenting puzzlers. With a Bachelors in Journalism and a Masters in Education/Child Development, I've had my nose in enough books to eloquently write about the solutions to temper tantrums. However, nothing would have prepared me for being a parenting survivalist and style voyager quite like the experiences of traveling with five children under age six or the skill set I have developed in hiding the monthly Nordstrom bill from my husband. Follow along my journey as I teach you how to hide the "mom pooch" while conquering everyday parenting pickles with wit, humor and style.
