A letter to Emma
Baby Girl, It's a dark, and violent world we are living in. I don't know at what point in life you will read these blogs, but I can only imagine things are going to get worse before they ever get better. I hope this is not the case, but it seems to be the way... Continue Reading →
A Mothers Rant
You know what makes moms go crazy? No time to themselves! Being a full-time mom is such a blessing, and I am so grateful I no longer have to schlep from airport to airport and store to store, but dang it, I need some time alone! I guess I didn't really consider the fact that... Continue Reading →
It’s never to late to Walk in Love
The first thing I read this morning was that 50 people had been killed, and 53 had been injured by a shooter at a popular LGTB club in Orlando. I didn't have an overwhelming initial reaction because I've become quite numb to these news stories. It seems close to every election, every major decision-making time in... Continue Reading →

Super Boobs
We are women. We are a mammal. We are created to nurse our young. It's encoded deep inside our DNA to produce life-giving substance for our babies. It's, what I think, is a women's most fascinating feature. I did not always feel this way. Up until I got pregnant last year, I knew very little... Continue Reading →
3 months with her…
You've been with me 3 months, Emma. In 3 months I have completely transformed into someone I never knew I could be. I feel like I am a more patient, compassionate, and loving person due to you. I thought I loved your father, but the love I have for you almost hurts at times. I... Continue Reading →
The Great Cloth Diaper Journey..Abbreviations
Before my daughter was born, I knew that I would be cloth diapering. I read horror stories about how our landfills are piled with diapers that wouldn't break down properly. I listened to mom after mom struggle to find a diaper that wouldn't break her kid out in rashes. I kept hearing about the dreaded... Continue Reading →
