Thomas the Train and A Cup of Coffee
There are just some mornings where a little tv and a cup of coffee can really go along way. I am finding that even though most mornings that I rise before my son, I still need a moment once he is awake to feel more ready for the day. There are days when I amContinue reading “Thomas the Train and A Cup of Coffee”
Today is Mother\’s Day
My motherhood journey began over five years ago. It began in a way that I never knew was possible and in a way that I was not on board with. I became a mother in December of 2010, when I found out that we were 10 weeks pregnant with our first child. Things quickly changedContinue reading “Today is Mother\’s Day”
Technology, Life, and Multitasking
I am not new to technology. We had a TV growing up, a computer, and video games. However, instant access at our fingertips, the ability to get things done quicker, and an even greater spectrum of connecting.

A Delicate Balance
I am a wife, a mom, a friend, but most of all I am me. Yet, at times, I really don\’t know who I really am and seem to get lost in the daily grind. I have many roles that I fill. Day in and day out, the roles are there. Sometimes, the focus isContinue reading “A Delicate Balance”

Mom Confessions ~ French Fries and Fast Food
When we had our son, I told myself, we are going to limit the interaction with fast food. Hmmm…nice try mom. We did okay when he first starting eating real food. Sometimes we would get a fast food dinner and share a few bites with him, but he had little interest. But then softball seasonContinue reading “Mom Confessions ~ French Fries and Fast Food”
