Because motherhood doesn’t exactly follow a script.
Welcome to the part of my world where life happens in real time. Raising two very different sons has given me plenty of stories—some funny, some frustrating, some completely unexpected, and some that changed the way I saw things.
This is where I’ll share the moments that make me laugh, the moments that make me think, and the lessons I picked up along the way.
The Stories
Real motherhood stories about the people, moments, mishaps, and memories that stay with you long after the day is over.
The Boys
Two sons. Two very different personalities. A whole lot of life in between. Their stories don’t end because they grew up—and neither does motherhood.
The Moments I Didn’t Expect
Some of the best stories start with, “You are not going to believe what happened.” These are the surprises, catastrophes, adventures, and everyday moments that make family life what it is.
What Motherhood Taught Me
The lessons I didn’t know I was learning while I was busy being a mom. Some came from joy. Some came from worry. Some came from simply figuring things out as I went.
New stories will be added here as life happens.
