Can I tell you a something?
I have love having a big crazy family and so does my son. He loves telling his friends that he is an uncle at 13. He has several other aunts and uncles as well. Yes, our family is not the norm, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. Caden gets to grow up with […]
Back in the day
When I was little; while everyone else went out to recess, I sat with the teachers. I never really wanted to play with the kids my age. I saw no real use for playing. It was a waste of my time. I wanted to be doing useful things. The teachers quickly figured this out and […]
Back to School
There are a bunch of mamas out there right now, looking at photos this week. Missing their babies because they are at school. And I bet they will be early to pick up line. You know who you are…. And then there are moms like me. Getting their nails done and getting coffee. All alone. […]
What images do you love?

Thinking I would never have any children. Every miscarriage, beginning of a cycle and lost hope. And then one day… Our prayers were answered with crazy […]
It is national relaxation day!
What relaxes you? This little girl does it for me. She is always around to make me laugh. Plus after a few pets, my anxiety has come down a bit and she has done her job. Miss Stella was purchased as an emotional support cat, but don’t tell her. She runs the house. What relaxes […]

Then his big brothers joined us for some family photos with dad. Then we wrapped up with a quick cake smash. Since […]
