In our house, when there are chores to be done, I usually have two happy pint-sized participants (and the two or three stuffed animals they bring along for moral support) begging to help do a project and create something.

My Garden Rehab

Goats for weeding

I don’t come from a long line of gardeners, and I’ve always struggled to keep plants alive, in fact, my history with plantlife has earned me the title of “black thumb”. I’m the woman who buys a basil plant from Traders Joes, sets it by the sink and then slowly watches it die.

Her name is Emmie, and she is the cutest darn kiddo you’ve ever seen. I would feel guilty saying that as a mother of two, but she looks identical… Read More

His and Hers: The Treasure Drawer

The junk (treasure) drawer!

“Junk Drawers” your worst enemy, is my best friend.  Think about it. We all have random drawers in our homes that gather things that we, for whatever reason, don’t want lying around- sometimes we feel bad for throwing it away but most of the time we still have it because it’s just too awesome to… Read More

Becoming “You” After “They” Become Your Everything

The Business of Becoming “You” After Baby Becomes Your Everything

Becoming “you” again isn’t about subtracting from the “you” you are to baby. It’s about realizing that you now have the capacity to be so much more than you ever were before.
