Motherhood in a nutshell

It’s late, and it grows later as I bounce my 1 year old to sleep in her bouncer. My arm draped over the arm of the couch to gently push her chair up and down.

You like music don’t you?

Honestly who doesn’t like music? In some form or another we hear music everyday. It’s a part of every culture, no matter where you go. I listen to the radio every weekday when I drive my son to school. And every now and then I hear songs that just hit me in a good way.Continue reading “You like music don’t you?”

I’m going to be selfish for a bit.

Today I had the full realization that I have always put myself, my needs, my life, on the back burner. Hell, not even on the stove but stuck in the back of a cupboard. So I decided that I’d do something today that I’ve never done. I’m going to be selfish. I am going toContinue reading “I’m going to be selfish for a bit.”
