I am currently a pessimistic gloomy ray of sunshine or lack of sunshine. Today our entire family went to Target. Partly to run some errands and partly to get me out of the house and out of my mood. Target always makes my day brighter, except fo
Apparently, I have a lot of friends, according to my daughter. There are 19 of them and they are all in the First Grade. In a moment when I was feeling down and pessimistic, she wanted me to know I was not alone. How often do we, as moms, feel
If you ever visit my house for any length of time, you are likely to hear my daughter say “you are getting my goat.” While that phrase can often mean to irritate or upset someone, in our house we use it to describe someone teasing you. The joke
Today and tomorrow mark the celebration of Dia de Muertos and All Soul’s Day. After losing our mothers in 2019, we knew our children needed to feel the legacy of their grandmothers. Legacy is a funny term. It can be used to describe the propert

During season 1 I lamented that my laundry was out of control. Well, I’d like to report, that it's better and finally under control. But the purpose of this podcast isn’t to present a picture-perfect life. The purpose is to show you behind the
What is it with kids and their shoes? It takes my daughter way too long to pick out a pair of shoes and put them on. And why are all the shoes missing? We had a shoe-pocalypse today and it resulted in us running out of time for breakfast. Join
My one-year-old son is gaslighting me. He said mommy once and then he never said it to me ever again. I’ve been told that he says it when I am not around. But, every time I try to get him to say "Mommy", you know what he says, “Daddy.” Clear as
We all try to do it all. To have it all. But the truth is, we are only one person and sometimes we just need a break. Eight years ago on Facebook, I wrote, "Sometimes I just want to tell the world I am only one person. I can't do everything. Or
There is a woman who I hope to meet one day. She is a mother like me. I take comfort in knowing she, like me, is raising young children. She is my son or daughter's future, mother-in-law. I think about her often. I wonder if she is are tired li
My daughter is convinced she found the worst thing that ever happened to her. It was so bad, in her mind, she spent weeks trying to get out of it. She even asked me to write her a note excusing her from this activity. (I think we might be in tr
It has finally happened. I forgot picture day. And to make matters worse, my daughter is convinced I should learn a lesson from this. So here I am holding back my tears and wondering who have I become? But it hit me today. That doesn't define m
Pandora keeps bringing up Andy Grammer, and when I say bringing up, It has been relentless. But, after playing his new music, I am convinced Andy Grammer circa 2021 is my spirit animal. Music has the ability to speak to our soul. It can soothe
We all love a great beginning and we all want to celebrate with a big ending. But we often want to gloss over the middle in our own lives. I've been thinking a lot about the middle. What if we embraced the middle? Or dare we even celebrated it?
I think I live in a zoo. The chaos is everywhere. Today I am going to share with you the secret to managing it all. Here is a hint, you can’t do it all, but you can have it all. I’ll tell you how I approach my life with careful consideration.J
I don’t mean to alarm you, but the children are watching. They are watching our every move. This occurred to me as I watched my son play with his new shopping cart. Tune in and I will tell you what he did that made me realize I need to tread ve
There is an elephant in the room or maybe a little elephant outside the room. I am talking about the dreaded little hand under the door. The cries for attention when you are seeking a small moment of peace. As a mom there is no moment of peace,
Everyday we have to make hard decisions. Being a parent is hard right now. I often find myself frustrated with the changing information and contradictory information. I worry I am making the wrong choices. But you know what, I am doing the best
My daughter got the sweetest note from a friend. It made me cry. It was loving, encouraging, and everything a friend should be. It reminded me that we all need to slow down and pour into others. Words (written or spoken) matter and have the abi
We have a toddler on the loose. Don’t you love the toddler phase? It is full of cute chubby legs running and wobbling with joy. My son is so proud of his wobbling mobility. Sometimes I feel like a wobbling t-rex as a parent, roaring and toddlin
Do you ever feel that your past self is trying to tell your future self something? That happened to me today in the form of a Facebook Memory. I don't know what was going on in my life 9 years ago, but for some reason, the documentary Raw Faith
In honor of Father’s Day, here is a story about my dad. It involved bugs (which I hate), my second-grade class, and a moment where I thought my dad was the smartest person in the park. Another dose of encouragement coming your way. Join us on
