Bed time is the best time…and get your mind out of the gutters people!! I’m not referring to what I’m SURE a lot of you are thinking about. I’m talking about that quiet time with your family, in my case…my husband and our 2 year old daughter. Every single evening is pretty simple and some may say ‘boring’ at our house. We eat dinner, hang out, play with to... Read More »
Arden turned three in March, but has run the roost since she was just a couple months old. We knew that she’d be a spitfire but, given the choice, I still would have preferred a spitfire over a wallflower. I’ll likely be eating those words when she’s a teenager. As parents, part of our jobs is embarrassing our kids, usually not on purpose, when they get older. This entails showing up at school dro... Read More »

I woke up with a frown on my face. Looked out the window, saw the rain, and questioned what reasoning I had to get out of bed. I sluggishly put on my t-shirt and faded blue jeans. Not caring about what I looked like, I paired my outfit with some broken sandals tied together by a thin black string.
