Raising Children to Weather the Storm
All the parents were invited for snack time at daycare. I was feeling bummed that I couldn’t visit Princess for milk and cookies. Her daddy had the day off from work, and surprised her. As you can tell by the photo, she was super excited to see her daddy. He made both our days! Weather…
I’ve had this blog for almost a year now. I started it as a way to document my adventures of career and motherhood. Finding balance between the two has been challenging. But, I’m getting there. I also hope that one day Princess will want to read it, and learn all about mommy’s journey. But, it…
I get compliments on the pictures I post of Princess all the time. It surprises me because I’m not even close to being a professional photographer.

Spring is finally here! But, it hasn’t sprung quite yet. Even though temps are milder than normal for this time of year, we woke up to fog and gray skies. (spring pics below) On the flip side, the last day of winter was more spring like. In fact, winter came in like a lamb and…
