Failure has always been a huge fear of mine. To the point of anxiety attacks, and I still have them but now I push through harder. I would give up before I even did any research. If I made it to the research stage, analysis paralysis would take over. I would become obsessed with findingContinueContinue reading “The First Step is Hardest.”

School is cancelled
My little fourgineer is stuck doing distance learning until the end of the academic school year. She misses her friends and teachers dearly. Which is why I think she has been acting out when asked to do her assignments. What am I supposed to do. I am trying everything to make sure she is enjoyingContinueContinue reading “School is cancelled”
The Fourgineer
*This was supposed to go up last week but…yeah life happened. Good morning, it’s Saturday and the kid is awake! I was not ready, especially since she has tried to sleep in all week. Now that we have nowhere to be and no reason to go. Still, it looks a little gloomy outside. So maybeContinueContinue reading “The Fourgineer”
I should be writing, but it’s laundry day.
Last week went by fast and slow at the same time. Slow because the car is currently under construction, and I had to depend on my family to get around. Fast because it was Red Ribbon week at my daughter’s school and Halloween! I’m telling you I almost didn’t make it. I did manage aContinueContinue reading “I should be writing, but it’s laundry day.”
Power Struggles
So we got up on this lovely morning and had a little adventure. We walked up the street and stopped to read. We had a moment when we got home. She wasn’t interested in doing what I asked. I just wanted to write in quiet. It was a true meeting of wills and nobody won.ContinueContinue reading “Power Struggles”
The Gratitude List
I have been trying so hard to be a better version of myself. A better partner, a better mom, and a better writer. I do not always do this gracefully. I lash out at the ones I love. I send my kid off to play in her room because I just can’t at the moment.ContinueContinue reading “The Gratitude List”
What do you after school with the kiddos?
Another Monday is upon us, and thus the beginning of a new week. I started looking at our calendar and wondered what kind of activities should I add in this week if any. This momma doesn’t want to over do it. Marley has always been booked and busy. From the very second day we wereContinueContinue reading “What do you after school with the kiddos?”
Ready for fall, but summer won’t leave!
Texas just refuses to change seasons. Fall is trying to blow in, but summer just won’t move over. My baby got this vest for her birthday and could not wait to wear it. My little fashionista pulled this together, without my help or a care for the 100 degree weather. 😁 It’s is supposed toContinueContinue reading “Ready for fall, but summer won’t leave!”
The threenager is now a fourgineer!
Today my life changed forever, and for the better. My Marley is four years old today. I remember nothing more vividly than the day she was born. I remember how excited I was. Never have I been that happy to be anywhere especially a hospital at four AM. I remember how cold the waiting roomContinueContinue reading “The threenager is now a fourgineer!”
Proud Mommy Moments
My little threenager, who will become a fourgineer in a few weeks; is blossoming in school. She has become even more outgoing and caring. I went to pick her up last week and almost cried. Her artwork was displayed in the hallway. Mind you the entire classes we’re out there. None the less I couldn’tContinueContinue reading “Proud Mommy Moments”
