4AM

I woke up at 4 and had trouble falling back asleep. This isn’t typical for me, so I’m not to worried about it. The 6 hours I did sleep were solid and I feel rested. While awake, I thought about how lucky I am. All the wonderful things I did this week. Food I enjoyed,

Love Languages

The Mom’s

I have three other Mom’s that I get to do this Mothering journey with! I say get to instead of have to, because life is better when looking at it with gratitude! Many of us are sharing this parenting journey with someone outside of a “nuclear family”. You can choose to be angry, resentful or

Happy Friday all! Here are the 5 things that I am totally digging on this week. The Bachelorette Reunion for those of you that don’t know…I am a reality TV junky.  I have always loved it.  I remember watching when I was in college and I have never stopped.  Watching this reunion on Monday made me

Be Grateful
