Welcome! I'm Jill and I’m much scarier than I may appear. Or, at least I like to think so.
My son named me Scary Mommy during a phase where he was scared of everything, including his grilled cheese sandwiches. So, maybe I’m not all that scary after all, but Pushover Mommy didn’t quite have the same ring to it.
Scary Mommy has appeared in top publications such as the New York Times, cnn.com, msn.com, Ms. Magazine, Parenting Magazine and Washingtonian Magazine. Some pieces I like more than others. I was a keynote speaker at BlogHer '10, among other speaking engagements.

Mine. Always mine- I just keep rolling them higher and higher.

Madaline has had a runny nose for WEEKS now….and I don’t think that there is a thing in the house that she hasn’t tried to wipe her nose on. It’s gross and cute at the same time!
HaB´s last blog ..Thankful….
Is there an end in sight to this? I feel like I am wiping forever! Poor little guy!
My kids are all teenagers and you’ve just instantly cured my most recent wave of baby lust.

Corinne´s last blog ..Relatives…. AVERT YOUR EYES!!!
I never understood how little kids didn’t care if they had snots everywhere. My little guy walks around with those icky things on his finger and thinks it is funny!
Omg your kids are adorable, even with the snot :). I don’t have any of my own, but I have babysat for a lot of kiddos. I so would have done the snot pinch thing, which oddly completely grosses my brother out.
