A day I will never forget. A moment in time that will stay with me forever.
I got a text . . .
"Hey, I need to tell you something but you can't call me because I am with my kids."
"Okay,...
It’s been one of those days. Technically it’s been about 4 of those days in a row and I’m going to be honest with y’all: I feel like I’m drowning a little bit. I’ve said no approximately 715 times...
To Allergy Moms,
I have no idea what it’s like to be in your shoes. I don’t get it. I want to understand, I’ve tried really hard to understand it, but I don’t… not completely. Being a parent of child...
We tried. We really did. We tried to be friends. We tried to get our kids together and have them become friends. Turns out, I don't like your kid. I don't like when your kid intentionally drives toy cars...
Okay, I'll be honest. I didn't start a book club for moms. I started a book club for myself. I love to read. Whenever I finish a good book, the first thing I want to do is discuss it...
Hi Friend,
We don't talk as much as we used to and I miss you. I know that the pendulum will swing back again and there is so much comfort in that. Life has kept us busier than usual right...
“I’ll go brush my teeth,” I said through my end of the phone, “and then I’ll come right back...”
I had a land line and my very own phone number that rang straight to my bedroom – the coolest two...
The perfect mom. You know the one I mean. She carries in homemade treats to the bake sale as her perfectly blown out hair is caught by a breeze. Her body is perfectly toned, and she wore her pre-pregnancy...
Please don’t take this the wrong way, but I don’t like your children.
It’s nothing personal. I’m sure they’re really sweet, cute kids; it’s just that the only children I really like are my own. And even that’s true only...
Dear Girl,
Happy International Women’s Day, my beautiful double X-chromosoned baby. You are so lucky to be a part of our world’s brave, powerful tribe called Female. Women are awesome. And when we band together we’re even more awesome. That’s...
I am the wife of an Adams County Deputy Sheriff.
My husband is different. He changed. I knew this job would change him, but I didn't know it would change me, too.
I was 8 months pregnant with our first child...
We are sitting on the couch after a long day away at a volleyball tournament. My daughter is in bed, and my husband is watching a football game. I'm scrolling Instagram when my phone buzzes in my hand.
I gasp...
What is it about being a mom that simply sucks the life out of you!? (Don't judge me. If you're being honest, I know you know that feeling, too.) Hey, I love my life. My family, friends, job, and,...
Dear Friend(s),
Thank you so much for inviting me to your upcoming event. I am honored that of all the people you could and may have invited that you included me amongst the people you would like to be there....
