Well it's already almost mid-summer and here I am finally getting the spring family update on the way. I know my writing recently has been sparse-I rarely have the mental energy to write these days-but I know that will change soon enough. Life is full and I am grateful for that. This spring literally flew…
Winter 2021-2022
We are still trying to settle into 2022 and all it has in store. But let me start by sharing about winter 2021.

Fall 2o21
I am so grateful for all we have had the opportunity experience this past fall. As a family we have worked on finding a balance of rest, visits, projects, and maintain a healthy routine. Z started 5 day preschool at the beginning of September. He struggled with adjusting to the change in routine and so…
Farm and Fall Part 2 (2020)

Mom Identity Crisis
I've seen this phrase floating around the internet recently : "I was a perfect mom until I had kids". Seriously though, it's been hard to come to terms with the disparity between the mom I thought I I wanted or planned on being, and the mom I really am. It's been a tough journey with…
