so I’m guessing all of my faithful reading are wanting to know about the events of homecoming day. You got it! (sorry it’s taken me so long, but I have to admit it’s been great detaching from the computer and phone this past week) So, a week ago today my husband came home after 239…
Last week I got my first Brazilian Wax. After it was all over, the very sweet lady who performed ‘the job’ said, ‘You’re officially welcomed into The Brazilian Club!!’. In her Brazilian accent, as she was herself a Brazilian, which just made it all the more official. So, while I know this is a very…
I’ll admit I don’t carry a purse often. At least, not one that is just for me. For the last 5 solid years it’s been either a diaper bag, tote bag, or some sort of BAG that allows me to fit everything I’ll need for every possible situation that could sort of possibly happen while…
And I’m serious. This is an actual CHALLENGE. …let me explain… Me. Well, this whole entire deployment has been a bit of a rough ride. From the day my husband left, week after week there has been some sort of hurdle for me to jump over, some sort of obstacle for me to get through….

How many awareness posts have you read this month? April seems to be a big one. Autism. Month of the Military Child. Sexual Assault. Even distracted driving gets some awareness this month. Did you know that it’s also Child Abuse Awareness month? It’s true. And I actually haven’t seen too many posts on the subject….
It’s Earth Day!! Are you gettin’ down with the greenage? I try to be green. I’m not perfect, but I put in a decent effort. But ‘being green’ isn’t all about conserving water and recycling. I mean, that’s definitely some things that are good to do, but I think we overlook the small things we…
this was a big moment for me this morning. the sun was rising and reflected off of the glass on a picture we have hanging on the living room wall, showing my boy in beautiful morning sunlight as he was just sitting there quietly thinking to himself. i just stared at him and marveled at…
Three years ago today we completed our family, and brought to the world the two most beautiful girls it will ever see. But something else happened. Three years ago I fought for you, for love, and won. I’m sure the actual time span of it all was quick, but for me the end was moving…
