"I receive tons of humor submissions all hoping to be posted on my site; and while they are good, they are not extraordinary. Lisa Barker's column, Jelly Mom, is the only one that makes me literally laugh out loud. Her humor comes as close to Erma Bombeck's insightfulness and superbly incredible sharp wit as I've ever seen . . . Jelly Mom easily inspires parents to laugh just as much -- if not more! Finally, a mom who can claim the Erma Bombeck, Jr. title!"
