Wow- it has been SO LONG since I have updated here. I think I updated a while back that I became an unexpected homeschooler in the spring of 2017. This was about 6 months after I gave birth to our SURPRISE 4th baby the October before. Needless to say- it’s been a VERY busy couple […]
When life throws you curveballs…{Personal update}
Well hello there old friends. It sure has been a while, hasn’t it? An embarrassing long time, actually. This poor blog was covered in cobwebs when I opened it this last week, ha! I’ve missed this little space, I really have. But life seems to always throw curveballs and sometimes there are so many you […]
So I’ve been busy….
…we’ve added to our family AGAIN! (Photographs thanks to my good friend Jane at Jane B Photography) We welcomed E4 to the family last Fall- she’s already almost 6 months old! We headed to Hawaii last summer, Tahoe in the winter, and have been living the crazy life that comes with FOUR kids! It’s been fun, […]
Life is Hard, Beautiful, and Painful
Sometimes, life is hard. Sometimes, it is beautiful. Sometimes, it is painful. The last few weeks have been painful for my family. A few weeks ago, my heathy, happy, full of life father in law became suddenly very ill and passed away a few days later. His illness and passing were rare, sudden, tragic and heartbreaking. […]
You Can Do EVERYTHING Right and Still Have a Child with Special Needs
I want to talk a little bit today about guilt. You know…mommy (or daddy) guilt that parents of children with special needs (developmental or medical) carry on their shoulders because of their child’s needs. The guilt and the constant “what if’s” are oh-so common. Recently, I took my middle son Ev, age three, into our […]
I’m Here! Just T I R E D.
January is 2/3 over already and I have yet to get back to regular posting. If you follow along on Facebook, you may already know one of the reasons. I am tired. Baby Emory, like all my kids, had a sleep regression right at 4 months. However, this kid’s regression has been longer and far […]
Happy New Year!
Whew! I don’t know about you guys, but we had a busy few weeks around here! I tried to spend more time “unplugged” and didn’t even sign into my blog for nearly two weeks! We spent some much needed time hanging out as a family, watching movies (both with and without the kids), and getting […]

My Morning {Why Writing a Blog Post Takes Me 3 Days…or More}
This is how my morning went down. Downstairs eating breakfast. All goes well. Baby plays on floor. Children play. Sit down to work on blog post. Baby screaming. Put baby in baby swing. Kids play with baby. Baby is happy. See how happy we were this morning? Baby falls asleep. SCORE. Continue working on blog […]
How My Children {and Motherhood} Helped Make me a Better SLP
Bringing baby Emory into the world got me thinking about how much my children have enriched my life and have made me a better person. My children show me love I didn’t even know existed and my life will be forever changed because of their sweet faces. But my children have also had a huge […]
