I’ve debated about whether I wanted to blog about this, but lately, I’ve been processing a lot of things in my life through writing. So you get to be part of my “writing process.” If you recall, from my last post, I came down with a hefty case of mastitis. A week after all things [...]
One Year
My sweet little baby is officially a toddler. Aedan turned one year old on the 19th and I cannot believe how quickly this year has come and gone. Becoming a parent, I imagine, is a lot like being thrown overboard with just one swimming lesson under your belt. Good luck parents, just keep swimming! Except, [...]
Moms At Work: Ringing in the New Year with a New Career
If someone had told me even just a year ago that I’d be working at a senior living facility that specializes in Alzheimer’s and dementia, I would never have believed them. In fact, if someone had told me a year ago that I’d be working full-time outside the home again, I wouldn’t have believed that [...]
Foster Care Month: Kindra’s story…
My husband, Mike and I got married when we were 21 and still in college. We loved to dream about the future and where we might end up. We considered Turkey, Africa, even a PhD program in Los Angeles.

Flourish Natural Body Care Review & Giveaway :: Closed
Well, they had me at lip balm. Lip balm. I may have a thing for the stuff. It’s possible that there is a tube of lip balm in every drawer in my house. I mean, I want to be able to get to it whenever I need it. Like, immediately. What? I can quit whenever [...]
Dwelling on Tutus
My daughter Wren grinned squinty eyes as we sang happy birthday this morning, then cheered us into an encore as if she knew something about the world revolving around two year olds. I won’t say the same old things, you know, about how time flies and kids grow fast, and how a thousand years are [...]
The Do-It-All Mama
I loathe her. I want to be her. Oh you know who I’m talking about. The mom who seems to have it all put together. You see her at music class with her two kids. She’s the one with perfectly blow dried hair, flawless makeup, and in the cutest outfit you’ve ever seen. When I [...]
