I bristled every time the midwife called me “mom” before my appointments the first time I was pregnant. After all, I just wanted the opportunity to enjoy my nine months. I was a mom-to-be and quite happy to be one. This is not an argument about when life begins, though it could be. This is a black and white, crystal clear difference: unless your child is in your arms, you aren’t a mom....

In a viral photo shared on Reddit, a smiling dad-to-be rocks a curly wig and a paint palette that’s reminiscent of the one and only Bob Ross. His pregnant partner holds a sign that says they’re expecting in October 2017, while the Bob Ross look-alike paints a sonogram on her stomach.

It’s their right as parents to make that choice. For the majority of families, changing the child’s last name is a given, but the first name requires careful consideration. The child’s feelings should come first.” In trying to put the child’s feelings first, parents should ask themselves the following: Am I considering a name change because it makes me feel more comfortable?...

“Yeah, Mom,” Alex answered in a tone that screamed, Mom, you have no idea; you went to school in the caveman days! I slid into a narrow parking spot, hand on the gearshift, as Alex emphatically declared, “This place isn’t for me.” “Can I put the car in park before you make that assessment?” Alex twisted in his seat. “Doesn’t feel right.

Instead of forking over thousands on new flooring, they decided to make a change with … well … change. And yes, it looks as crazy as it sounds. Ryan Lange and Emily Belden have paved their entire 234-square-foot bedroom with pennies, which amounted to about $600 worth. It’s a much cheaper option than cherry wood floods, that’s for sure.
