Mama, this is hard—but we can do hard things

I want to assure you (and myself)—we will be alright. Take a breath.

This isn’t my first baby—but I still need your support more than ever

The truth is, no matter how old my children are, no matter how independent the big ones get, no matter how "put together" I may appear, I humbly share that I am not always managing this very well all on my own. Please know I still need you.

While you were sleeping, I just stared at you, in awe, that something so perfect could come from me. ?

Marriage means saying “I do” every. single. day.

Even on those days where you don’t see eye to eye or are really annoyed with one another.

While you were sleeping: I watched you transform into a toddler

I’m so glad I held you that day.

Why being the parent of a 1-year-old is simply exhausting

Who can help me find my phone? We need Daniel Tiger STAT.

Parenting

On the days I struggle most with my little ones

I remind myself: I will miss this.

I was going to fold the clothes, but instead I held you

You fell fast asleep on my chest and it was an easy choice of what to do.
