Seeing people online or on tv, it’s like looking at a house. The outside can sometimes be this gorgeous home, and maybe on the inside it is too.

Heavy
I am floating And I am heavy. I am emotional And I am numb. The minutes take ages And a year takes minutes. Reality has been unveiled It’s true form staring me in the face… I am stuck. And I feel free. Who am I… Who will I be? Things have been rough there latelyContinue reading “Heavy”
Little life talk
I looked at my babies playing today, and I teared up. It hit me in that moment how much they have grown. My son just turned 4 years old, and my daughter will be 1 in just a months time. I got emotional, because I’m so happy to see them grow and watch them changeContinue reading “Little life talk”

Fun simple project
I saw a post recently of someone making an awesome memory capture with the scanning feature on a printer. It was a scan of their hand and their child’s hand. I knew I had to do it! So I whipped out my printer and tried it out! It didn’t start out so well… I triedContinue reading “Fun simple project”
This weather…
Welcome to my small hometown in eastern Oregon where you never know if the day will be t-shirt and sandals kind of day or a coat and snow boots one. We went from this… To this… To THIS!… And back to this today… The flakes of snow as I write this, are the size ofContinue reading “This weather…”
Free-range Parenting?
So the other day I was told that I had a more “free ranging parenting style”. Well for a minute I did feel a bit offended to be honest with you.
