At restaurants, I carry paper and markers and tell everyone to draw a picture with a unicorn, an octopus and an explosion. That keeps kids still for a minute.

Children are like crazy, drunken small people in your house.

I think it's pretty common for people to get excited when they meet somebody that they know from the media.

My husband is very funny and his humor has gotten us through a lot. He's good at defusing me.

In my family, Mom can lead the sports activities, no problem! Except football - that, my husband does.

I use an app called ChoreMonster. The kids earn points for brushing teeth or picking up the dog poop. It's genius.

I'm on a strict gossip diet. No gossip websites, no gossip magazines. Otherwise, I find it paralyzing to exist.
