What I wanted for mother’s day and what I want every day is: to feel loved, to feel cared for, to have a littleContinue reading “Did we really make it through this pandemic?!”

New Years Wishes and Birthday Kisses

I cannot believe the end of December and 2020 is here. I don’t think I’ve mentioned this much, but I am a holiday season baby. I always start the year with a new age. On January 5, I’ll be nearing my late 30s and saying goodbye to my early 30s which I’ve been holding ontoContinue reading “New Years Wishes and Birthday Kisses”

A Happy COVID Halloween

Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would become a blogger during the pandemic, yet here we are. It’s truly been the best of times and the worst of times.

Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall.

My September has been filled with a lot of love, energy, excitement and new beginnings. I had no idea that six years ago when my husband and I got married it would be such an amazing and exhausting month. This blog post won’t be a long one. I am tired. I am a mother andContinue reading “Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall.”

Family Farm Fun for Everyone!

Happy September Mamas! Moms, and all parents, what I love most about motherhood is the exploration you do with your children that you never did as a kid yourself.  I never visited a farm as an inner city kid with my parents for fun. I don’t recall ever going to a farm on a schoolContinue reading “Family Farm Fun for Everyone!”

Back to School Blues

I cannot believe the Back to School Season is practically here!  Don’t you remember the back to school season for us?! It’s a fond childhood memory. Getting your fall shopping in, the fresh crisp smell of fall in the air and of course the sorrow of an event filled summer ending as well. The summerContinue reading “Back to School Blues”

Trying to Save our Summer during the Covid-19 Pandemic

I can’t believe it’s been four months since the pandemic hit! I would have never seen this coming. Although, I remember when I actually knew it was coming having followed what happened in Wuhan, China before it hit us. I had recently gotten into podcasts and someone at work put me on to NPR’s UpContinue reading “Trying to Save our Summer during the Covid-19 Pandemic”
