Finding My Way Back To Where It Matters Most
Somedays, it’s so hard to trust. Trust that it’s all working out. Trust that your child is on the path that is right for her. Trust that you are doing your best as a mama and that it is enough. I wish there was some cosmic parent conference where you sit down with the Higher…
I had planned on posting here this past week but didn’t – I couldn’t find the words I wanted to really share as I’ve been thinking a lot about the events surrounding Ferguson. (This is why bloggers write blogposts early in advance and schedule them – which is what I did with my other blog…
More than six years ago, I left the “workforce” so I can be a stay-at-home mama. I didn’t know it then but my decision to be the primary caretaker of our child changed everything for me as a woman with aspirations and dreams. But not in the way you might think. Not only has my…
Starting our days well is huge for me. Mostly because I am NOT a morning person. I repeat, I am NOT a morning person. In fact, I often wake up bitchy and remain bitchy for the first 2-3 hours of the day. I kid you not. Just ask my ever-so patient husband. Having a child…

Do you have days like that too? I’ve been having those days more often than I would like to. When my fuse is way too short, or when my lapse in judgment occurs in public. When I’m drowning in self-doubt. Or worse, when I realize how wrong some of the ways I parented my child…
I have a secret: I don’t meditate! Nope. Never liked it. And I doubt I ever will. At least not the kind of formal meditation practice that involves sitting in stillness for however many minutes or hours everyday. It’s not really because I’m busy. I do not like getting into that vicious busy cycle that I…
