Kids are interesting creatures. I always find it interesting to watch how they interact with each other the first time. Coming from a mom of two who don't have a sky bone in their body I know they will just be ready to go. They play a little rough will splash you in the face… Continue reading The scariest word for us.

Reality vs Real life
Filters. Can we talk about these presets that are being sold now? Aren't those what the photo apps are? I have a few apps that can alter pictures, I think everyone must have one or two on their phones by now (except my husband.) I love using it to add rainbows or a sublet hue… Continue reading Reality vs Real life
Not every birth story is beautiful
On my last visit to the gyno when I was pregnant with Florence he asked me when I wanted to have her. Jokingly I said Friday the 13th, he told me that would be good since I was already dialated and basically in his opinion ready to deliver. I had read a lot about doulas… Continue reading Not every birth story is beautiful
Sometimes you’re half in and then you’re half out/But never close the door…
When was the last time you did anything alone? I'm not talking about going to the store and picking up milk. I'm talking, When was the last time you went to the bathroom alone. Let's get this out there right now. If you are uncomfortable talking about poop, going to the bathroom, poop, then you… Continue reading Sometimes you’re half in and then you’re half out/But never close the door…
The good ones always seem to break
Like I said before Ive been writing since I can remember. It has always brought me clarity, like a perfectly time exhale. There's something in the words on paper (now my iPad) that bring a calm over me. I stopped for along time. There was a point in my life that I lived with some… Continue reading The good ones always seem to break
I am teaching myself how to be free
Control. Letting go. Calming down. Expectations. Four incredibly difficult things for me. Not in my life, my life has been full of the unknown and chaos since I left my parents home. I never knew where the next day was taking me and maybe that's why when it comes to the kids I struggle to… Continue reading I am teaching myself how to be free
Hold on to each other…
Loneliness. Perfection. Unrealistic daily goals. I have three girlfriends who are all mommas. We don't live near each other but we have had a facebook group message for 2 or 3 years now. I started it when I didn't know what to do anymore or who to talk to. Stuck in a house alone a… Continue reading Hold on to each other…
The worlds a beast of a burden you’ve been holding up a long time….
When we go to the store people look. They look because our children are not being raised in a seen and not heard household. I am loud. I laugh loud, i talk loud, I yell, I talk to myself loud. Loud. So its only understandable to think that our kids are also loud. Loud and… Continue reading The worlds a beast of a burden you’ve been holding up a long time….
It’s always darkest before the dawn….
Sleeping. When was the last time you had a full night sleep. No not asking about your kids, wait. Can you ask that question when you have kids without saying, "well Florey slept from 7-11 and then was up for a hour....." We laid in bed this morning before PJ started getting ready for work… Continue reading It’s always darkest before the dawn….
I let him sleep and as he does My held breath fills the room with love
Well today is my first post for @thekidsarealwaysdirty. Back in the day, way way back in the day when I was young and single and a mess I had a blog. Back then blogging was only just beginning and I used it more as an outlet for myself to let the crazy out. I mean… Continue reading I let him sleep and as he does My held breath fills the room with love
