Did you see the results show on America's Got Talent last night? I'm kinda sad my two favorites didn't make it to the Finals! I loved Academy of Villains and Todd Oliver and his dog Irving! Oh well, here's your Final Three:

William Close (and his giant Earth Harp). "I'm so thankful... I love this show. I'm having so much fun on this show," he said. "This show loves you," said Howie.

Tom Cotter, comedian. "Wow," said Howard. "We're going to have a fabulous, fabulous finale."

It was up to the judges to pick the third finalist...final spot going to Sharon and Howie's pick sand artist Joe Castillo over my boys Todd Oliver and his dog Irving! Boooo one of the only times I agreed with Howard Stern this season!

So who's the big winner? Let us know your opinion on Facebook!

Have you ever used an excuse with a cop to get out of a ticket? I guess the better question is has it ever worked? This lady in Florida cracks me up... she was pulled over for a DUI and blamed her actions on being a bridesmaid! Now I've only been a bridesmaid once, but I don't think that gives you a free pass to be a drunk driver! Needless to say, she was booked for her DUI and left with an embarrassing story!

I came across this article on Yahoo today that made me tear up! It's about this mom who quit her job when her boss wouldn't let her take vacation to see her son play in the Little League World Series. Would you do the same? (Check Out Full Story Here)

I'm such a sap for great family stories, cause it makes me reminiscent of my childhood. I cannot remember a time my mom and dad weren't there for my events...even though we lost at EVERYTHING! My mom even volunteered to be our Volleyball coach in Middle School, when no one else would. (She knew NOTHING about the sport!) Do you have great parents/are you a great parent? Let's Hear About It On Facebook!

A new study says on average parents will spend more money on daycare for their kids than college! This is insane to me! However, I guess it makes sense. More parents are working and there are more single parents today. In 22 states childcare now costs more than median rent! What is it like for you as a parent? Let us know on Facebook!
