While I was reading the Stieg Larsson books, I noticed that the characters were always drinking coffee, making coffee, and going to get a coffee. And, it made me wonder if other moms around the world drink as much coffee as I do?
Can a mom drink too much coffee or tea in one day?
That is a question I often ask myself. The first thing I do after my big girl gets me out of bed in the morning is brush my teeth and make a cup of coffee. (more…)
Santa brought my 5-year-old son a Nerf gun. If you told me years ago when I was pregnant that this would happen, I would have told you that you were crazy. I was going to have a “no toy weapons” household.
I get that kids will make their own weapons out of sticks, blocks, or even their own hands. I just wasn’t comfortable putting the weapon in my son’s hand myself.
In the United States, toys, books and movies centered around play fighting are marketed to young boys at an early age. And, as the saying goes, “boys will be boys”, and I knew my son might love play fighting or be friends with others who owned full toy arsenals. I assumed we’d have to deal with it someday; I just wasn’t sure in what form. (more…)
We start this week on Monday in Washington, where Tara B. addresses the question of what kind of toys we should allow our kids to play with.
On Tuesday, we head to California to join A. Roslyn, who is known for cooking up delicious storms in her kitchen (now we know who to visit for dinner if we’re ever in San Francisco!)
On Wednesday, we’re flying east to New Jersey with Kally Mocho, who balances motherhood with helping others through her job as a social worker.
And on Thursday, we head north of the border to Canada to hear from Kirsten Jessiman, who is starting to gear up training for her next race now that the worst of the Canadian winter is (hopefully) over.
On Friday, Eva leads us in the Friday question, and we’d love to have your answers to that as well!
In exciting news, we have two new writers! Profiles will soon be posted on the Writers page for Veena from India and Dee from Mexico. Welcome to them both!
And finally, congratulations to the writers at World Moms Blog on achieving the milestone of the 100th post last week!

Today’s Friday Question marks our 100th post on World Moms Blog!
This week’s question came from one of our writers – Kally Mocho. She asked,
“As a mom, what one item can you not live without?”
Here are some indispensable items some of our moms cannot do without…
Eva Fannon of Washington State, USA writes:
“It would have to be diaper wipes. Even after my oldest was out of diapers (and the youngest wasn’t even born yet), we still kept buying them because they make cleaning dirty faces and hands so much easier! I always keep an extra pack in the car.” (more…)
