Be Present, Time Flies – Daily Hug Quote |D24
Be Present, Time Flies The days are long but the years are short, aren’t they? One day you’re chasing tiny feet across the living room, and the next they’re suddenly taller than you and asking to borrow your shoes (not yet for me but that time is coming, fast) We live in a world where the screens takes up to much of our time. We spend hours a day looking at other people’s lives, people we don’t even know, and then complain about not having time to play whit our own kids. What do you want your kids to remember…

March Recap – family activities, birthdays and gift ideas!
March is slowly coming to an end. One of those months where life feels full — almost too full. Weekend after weekend is filled with birthdays, and when it’s not a party, it’s work. Planning, shopping, preparing, hosting. Celebrations at home and celebrations elsewhere. I turned 30 (!), my oldest turned 7 (!) and two other family members had their birthday too! So – does anything really change after 30? Honestly… not that much. Maybe. Or maybe it’s more of a quiet shift. I feel a little more “properly grown-up” now. Which is funny, considering I already have kids, a house, a…

When Life Looks Right — But Feels Slightly….Off
A reflection on stress, gratitude, and the quiet pull toward something more. From the outside, everything in my life looks… right. I have a family I love more than anything. A home that feels safe. Work that provides stability. A life that, on paper, checks every box I once dreamed about. And still — something inside me keeps whispering:This isn’t quite it. Something is off. The past few weeks (months) have been intense. Work has taken up more space than I want it to, stretching into evenings and weekends. And when I finally step through the door at home, there’s…

Best Gift Ever | Daily writing prompt
Share one of the best gifts you’ve ever received. Actually, I got one of the best gifts I’ve ever received this last Christmas! I’ve received so many beautiful presents over the years — big and small. Warm and thoughtful. Meaningful and close to my heart. Gifts filled with love and intention. Lovely crafted gifts from my children. And the best gifts are the ones where the person feeeels that I will like it. Not that they know that I have been wanting it, but when someone is like ”hey I saw this and thought of you”. I love those presents…

Sick Days & Side Projects
Well… looks like the viruses have officially moved in. First big brother went down, and now the rest of us followed right behind. Today I’m home with little sister while my husband is at work. He’s not exactly feeling great either, but since he works outdoors this week, at least he’s not spreading germs to anyone else. Small wins. Coughing, runny noses, and yes—fever too. So we’re filling the day with all the cozy things: blankets, the fireplace, and crafts. My little one has warmed up in a bath, made approximately 20 beaded bracelets, and completed every puzzle she owns.…

To-Do List | Daily writing prompt
Something on your “to-do list” that never gets done. Well hello.. At the very top of my to-do list is usually this: Read my to-do list. Or… find it, if I wrote it on paper instead of in my phone. It’s a never-ending story — tasks that never get started or finished. Some things take days. Some take weeks. And the real nasty ones… sometimes take years. Things on my to-do list that never get done: – Clean the junk drawer — the place where everything that doesn’t have a home somehow has a home Clean the car — I…

Be Kind To Yourself – Daily Hug Quote | D23
I know — it sounds simple. Almost too simple. Like something written on a mug you once lost… twice. But if you’re an ADHD mom, you know how hard this actually is. Because your days are loud. Your thoughts are fast. Your to-do list multiplies while you’re trying to remember why you walked into the kitchen. You try so hard. Every single day. To show up. To remember appointments. To answer messages. To be patient. To keep everyone alive and somewhat fed. And still, you might end the day feeling like you failed somehow. Here’s the gentle truth: You didn’t…

January recap
Goodbye January, hello February January has officially packed its bags, and honestly… thank yooou – byeee!From Christmas break straight back into work and school. From slow mornings to alarm clocks, packed lunches, laundry piles, grocery lists, and the constant mental load that never really clocks out. On top of that, my job includes evenings and weekends, which means less time with family and friends. Less time for… well, everything else. Home, errands, rest. You know the drill. It’s a lot. Always. Even in January. We’ve celebrated birthdays every single weekend, and that marathon continues into February.Little sister turned 3 years…

It’s Okay to Start Again – Daily Hug | D22
You took a break. Not because you’re bad at this. Not because you’re the worst at staying consistent. But because sometimes, the only way forward is to stop for a moment. So many people carry the quiet belief that needing a pause means they’ve failed. That stepping back means they weren’t strong enough. That starting over proves they didn’t “have it together” in the first place. But pauses aren’t proof of weakness. They’re often proof of self-awareness. Sometimes you don’t quit — you rest. Sometimes you don’t give up — you gather yourself. And sometimes, you need space to breathe…
