In a not-too-recent post, I wrote of the issues we were having with our daughter and a severe case of negative attention-seeking behavior. As promised, I set out on a mission to test out a hypothesis that more focused time with her one-on-one would help decrease the negative attention-seeking behavior and replace it with choices and […]
Choosing to work from home can mean that you value being present in your child’s life as much as possible. The opportunity to be there for every milestone is amazing! But trying to balance mom life and work life under the same roof is…..well, less amazing. It’s been six months now since I took the […]
I’m sure my kid thinks I’m a “mean” mom. My husband can be tough when he needs to be, but he’s definitely the fun parent, and I feel like I just spend 90% of my time staying on my daughter about something. “Lean over. Don’t get crumbs anywhere. Get in the shower. Are your chores […]
I’m usually on top of time-sensitive things. I am the type of person that saves events and due dates on the calendar with checklists just in case. I write down things that I need to remember for the next day. I also leave myself a post-it reminder on my mirror or under my keys for […]

Moms, I’ll be the first to admit that at 33-years-old, my dreams look totally different than they did years ago. My life totally turned out different than I thought it was going to. Let me take you on a walk down memory lane. Faith Like a Child When I was growing up, I LOVED everything […]
Just a few weeks ago, I forced myself to really look at the amount – $76,000- I owe to my student loan provider. My stomach dropped to my toes and I wanted to run and stick my head in the sand. My student loan debt is something that has caused me stress since I finished […]
I have often thought that other kids seemed way easier than mine, but I was never openly embarrassed by my daughter’s behavior.
