Laura

Thank you, Laura. Are you like Laura? Yesterday when I went to pick up my child at school, she was not at her usual spot. I scanned my eyes over the crowd of children. I could not see my child. In my mind, I said, “Where is she?” Soon, I started saying it aloud. Laura […]
Vulture
September 6, 2019 No Comments
As I was driving down the street recently, I noticed a swarm of vultures eating and picking away at whatever roadkill happened to meet its fate. At that moment, I thought to myself, we need fewer vultures. I do not mean the animal. The animal is part of the “circle of life” as they say. […]
The Imperfect Sundae
July 21, 2019 No Comments
Have you ever noticed that an ice cream sundae is the perfect blend of imperfection? As soon as you begin to indulge in it, the ice cream begins to melt. The chocolate sauce drips off in all the wrong places. The toppings begin to get lost within the ice cream, and the cherry on top […]
Big Momma

You need someone like Big Momma in your life. Big Momma is someone that I have only known for about two and a half years. You are probably asking yourself, why would you dedicate a blog post to someone you’ve only known for two years versus someone you have known your entire life? Easy. Big […]
Were you there Mama?

Were you there Mama that day at the park? You said you were having a bad hair day, so you did not want to be in the picture. Were you there Mama that day at my school? You said you did not have time to get ready that morning, so you did not want to […]
Your Hair, Don’t Care!
April 26, 2019 2 Comments
My five-year-old daughter has beautiful curly hair. Natural ringlets with a spring in their step that match her loving personality perfectly. Her hair is long and light brown with golden highlights that glisten in the sun. She receives compliments on her hair frequently. The expressions range from, “Wow, look at ALL THAT hair!” to “Your […]
The Table
April 21, 2019 No Comments
When we went dining room table shopping back in early 2017, I knew what I wanted. Visions of a rustic, elegant round table with a farmhouse look danced in my mind. I was imagining off-white, cottage-farmhouse, with a vase of beautiful pink roses perfectly placed mid-table. Maybe a bowl of lemons too, just to give […]
Mama, you can do this.
April 14, 2019 No Comments
Mama, you can do this. Being a mom is hard. Difficult. Challenging. Painful. Backbreaking. Exhausting. These little people push you to the limits of your sanity. Each day in my home, the day starts with “Stop! No! Get down! Don’t run! You’re going to hurt your sister! Be gentle with one another! Don’t push! Stop […]
The Day I Almost Died: A Birthing Story
April 7, 2019 No Comments
Life is often a series of circumstances beyond your control. The day you almost bleed to death is not a day you quickly forget. It is also a day that takes some time to come to terms with. To tell the story entirely, I have to go back to my first pregnancy. My first daughter, […]
Magic

“Mama, do you believe in magic?” She asked me with a curious look on her face. Kids do not wait for the perfect time to ask you a question. When I need to speak to my husband about something that may require more than a yes or no answer, I will wait for a “good […]
