Selfcare isn’t all manis, pedis, and new things (though sometimes it CAN be). True Self Care is honoring what you are needing right now, in this moment, and being able to meet your own needs. It can be the need to pee (I can’t be the only Mama who holds her pee endlessly because there […]

I have been giving a lot of thought lately to where I find MyHappy. Somewhere on the path of motherhood I lost site of that heartspot. That place where I find my zen. My zone. My flow. Where I can just be and relish and bask in the wonder of my own thoughts and my […]

I bought this book before Christmas truly excited to dive in. I never did. Always wanting to create the perfect #time, perfect #space, perfect way to sit down just so and give it the proper #attention and #presence I thought it deserved, I never got to it. I moved it from one shelf to another; […]

We have been collecting leaves for a few weeks now and setting them in our Fall Nature Tray (on our kitchen table). We call them Nature Treasures and it’s ONE place we gladly add to our collection (so I don’t keep finding crunched up leaf debris at the bottom of my purse or pocket…)  I […]

Today I had the privilege of taking my 7-year old (alone) on errands with me. Wow. One. One, older child…is so easy and light to travel with. She’s so self-sufficient. Buckling and unbuckling…alone.

They were my favorite in grade school, high school, university, and beyond. Glad to have them resurface during our art space move <3  Lillian (4) in particular […]

I have always been one of those “over achievers”. The ones who is never content with herself…well, ever. I’m always researching, learning, exploring, shifting, taking it all into focus in my mind’s eye – trying to be the best me I can be. And frankly, It’s exhausting. I’ve always gotten straight A’s and done extracurriculars […]

Today I went to a Aldi with all three littles in tow. As I was coming out of the store to put our groceries into our rental car (we are in FL right now), it starts to rain. I get to the car, put Lincoln in so he’s not all over the place while I […]
