I procrastinated too long this week and never got to writing my Fiction Friday… I’m thinking about just taking the rest of the summer off. So I was visiting some of my favorite blogs and was really inspired by Tamara’s post for this week’s #LOBS. She says “That’s the beauty of a garden and its […]
The Promise
Generally speaking, I try to stay away from controversial topics on my blog. I hate conflict, I can’t stand it when people are mean (especially to me!) and truth be told, I’m too tired (and busy!) to get all wrapped up in a big debate via comments. However, I’m going to break my rules a […]

Happiness is… Love that little munchkin!
Summer Schedule for Kids
I am not organized at all. I try my best, but it is just not a skill that is innate. I am also one to become quickly involved in my own projects. So I was worried about starting the summer with three kids, ages 6, 3, and 1 at home, plus my 6 year old […]
Kindergarten in Review
My Dear Son, We sat together at the breakfast table today, this being your last day of Kindergarten, and I cannot believe how quickly the year passed! You have grown and changed so much since last August! I wanted to make sure to capture the most memorable parts of the year. Kindergarten did not start […]
I Do Declare!
My three year old is constantly cracking me up. Today, I want to just dedicate a post to my little Jelly Bean. So last night, I tell my kids it’s time to go get their teeth brushed, and she exclaims, “I do declare!” This is not the first time she’s said this. A couple of […]

Mother's Day Video
I put together this very short clip using my new favorite App – Magisto. Actually, I can’t even say that I put it together, cause all I did was select a few options, and they put it together for me. Fast and Free. I am not getting compensated for this post, I’m just sharing a […]

Happiness Comes from Purpose and Meaning
One of my favorite radio shows is Stand Up! with Pete Dominick. I started listening to this show several years ago when we bought our van and had our 3 month free trial of Sirius XM. I soon became addicted and couldn’t wait to get in my car for my evening commute so I could […]
Maternally Yours: Happy Mother's Day!
Mother’s Day is a bittersweet day for me. It’s a day I am so thankful for what I have, but always reminded of what is missing. But I do have three wonderful children, and for them, I am eternally grateful. In the spirit of celebrating mothers and motherhood, I was recently asked to review a […]

Still {International Bereaved Mother's Day}
I feel quiet and still this week. The air feels like it is made of thick jelly, and I’m struggling to breathe. Each step takes effort. The last few weeks have exhausted me, drained me, made me proud, made me happy, made me sad. While we accomplished something wonderful through our efforts for the March […]
