Good in Every Day

Every day may not be good, but there is good in every day. I’ve heard different examples of this used. The point is, it’s all in how you choose to look at it.

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 orContinue reading “The Mom’s”

Right Here

Nearly every morning for the last 93 months I’ve woke up next to my husband. Our morning routines have been different based off where we worked and at what time.

It started snowing here last night around 5:30pmContinue reading “Mid-Winter Break”

It simmered down a bit, but after continual vomiting it came back in full affect. I yelled for my husband. It felt like someone wasContinue reading “I need more weekend”
