Last year, I spent two months on bed rest before my daughter was born. After trips to the hospital for a false alarm or two, I headed to the hospital prepared to be sent home again. Instead, I was preparing to have my daughter. Here we are, one year later and I can’t believe time […] Read more…

Love it or hate it, becoming a celebrity pretty much guarantees your spot as a role model. Many complain about it, some embrace it and others just shrug it off. One thing is for sure; kids gravitate to celebrities and emulate them – good and bad. What is it about these people that make our […] Read more…
If Money Grew on Trees, I’d Go…
I wouldn’t call myself a world traveler, but I want to be. I have been to a few different countries and want to add lots more to the list. Our serious traveling hit the brakes once we had our son. Since he’s been born we kept our jet-setting inside the good ole USA. There are […] Read more…
I Am…
In all the goings on that is my life… some things continue to make themselves clear. I have this overwhelming urge to sometimes scream. I have this sense of knowing who I am and what I want and really get annoyed when people try in any way to diminish that. I have on more than […] Read more…

Where’s Your Cape?
I’m a mother, a wife, a writer, a word nerd, a fashionista, a supporter, an encourager and a friend. Even with all I’ve listed, I’m sure there are some things I’ve forgotten. I wear many titles. Some all at once, others when the time calls for it. It’s the writer that I’ve identified with longest. […] Read more…
