Word Warrior

I decided this is one of my titles… I am a wife, a mom, a daughter, a daughter-in law, a sister, a sister-in-law and so on and so forth but **now** I’m also a WORD WARRIOR. I love to use my words but… if you have ever come across this proverb: “When there are many……

I Was That Mom

Today for a fun Wednesday, I decided to introduce my children to a new series on Disney+ and learned a lot too late: I scared my kids! They went on before falling asleep that they felt scared… the rocking chair rocking by itself was really spooky. *insert confusion… * or **insert laughter** you choose… but……

When Your Days Are Difficult

I get it. I’m a mom of five. It’s not because I have five little humans to care, nurture and provide… and train, teach, and discipline but it’s because my heart is tethered to theirs. I see their joy. I see their tears. I feel their hurts I feel their fears. You don’t have to……

Would you say charisma wins you over or character? So when you’re looking at a new “leader” do you follow someone who has great charisma……

Mama-Bear Mode

**WARNING: this is a political post (Kind of) Today, I gave into temptation… and it got me so upset and I had to do something! Here I am.. It’s not what you think… unless what you think is about what I discovered is happening in my county (and city). Photo from Patryk S on Unsplash.com……

Month of April and Emotions

Photo by Charles Deluvio on Unsplash Hi Dear Reader, How are you today? I hope you are doing well. If you are just “ok” I hope you are sitting with what makes it “ok” and not “good, fine, etc” I am ok, too. You see, I have had several days of low pleasantness and energy.……
