One of my favorite people in this blogging world is Eli of Coach Daddy. There are many great things you could say about Eli (he is kind, he is a teamplayer, he cares passionately about his kids, he is funny, his dedication to featuring Star Wars pics in his posts…the list goes on), but what I […]
School It with Reading Eggs!
A few months ago, we dove into the big bad world of Kindergarten and hit this learning-to-read business with a frenzy. I’m really, really proud of my son and all the incredible progress he’s made. We’ve even gotten into a bit of a swing of homework time, and learning how to best get it done. Without […]
Yay, It’s Tax Season!
…said no one, ever. Except maybe my really smart CPA dad who genuinely enjoys preparing taxes. I know, I also question how I can possibly be his daughter. Come the beginning of January, I start to sweat it a little bit. I’m not an accounting whiz on a good day, so sorting everything for taxes feels overwhelming. Add in […]

Our Moment
I feel dishonest claiming these holidays were more harried than most. Let’s be real; I will always manage to work my panicky personality into a sizable tizzy come every end of December. But there were a few extras that added to the excitement this go around. While we avoided the plague that touched down last Christmas, my husband […]
Schoola for the Win!
This is the time of year when I start to get cagey. The piles of crap loom more implicating and the siren call to tidy up is strong. I feel encumbered by the clutter, yet lack the stamina to smoothly catalog all our outgrown items and pitch them for sale. While I do manage to clean […]
Leaving Time with Book Club
Happy New Year, readers! 2015 is here, with all it’s promise of fun things to come and hope of dramatic taming of our muffin tops. Godspeed. While the future is full of unknowns, I can take certain comfort in knowing I love my books. I will continue to love my books, and I am incredibly grateful to […]
The Year of Menial Tasks
One night last week my son and I were doing his devotional. We were reading about mistakes and forgiveness. “Mommy, ” my son asked, “We make a lot of mistakes and that’s okay?” “Yes, babe, we make a lot of mistakes because we’re human, but the important thing is we always try to do our best,” […]
