Lately I've missed my freedom. Not that I had much to be free about.. But just the mere fact that I could have gone wherever I wanted, whenever I wanted...without the responsibilities of a child. Is that wrong? It's not that I miss the party scene - although leaving the house at midnight and not… Continue reading …wanting to be free

Hey folks! So I have done it! The impossible! And now I am in my family's history books. This past Spring Break I decided Ky and I were NOT going to spend it in NC. We needed a break. So I packed our things and Belly (that's what I'm calling her these days) in the car… Continue reading …traveling adventures
…being an advocate for all children
Hey folks! So I had this conversation with a friend of mine that I thought would be great to talk about... As you know I'm a teacher - Pre-K in particular - and I deal with a few things when it comes to Pre-K.

So keep that in mind while I still go forth with this anyway, K? When I pictured myself having kids (like in… Continue reading …co-parenting

Hey folks! Happy New Year! I just wanted to share a few quick "revelations" I had at the end of 2016. It is NOT weak of me to ask for help: All my life I've been the type to just want to do things on my own and not bother asking others for help… Continue reading …setting goals

Hey folks! So here in NC, we have been snowed in for the weekend and the next two days (Yippee! Because my lesson plans weren't done anyway! Ha!) But that also means Ky and I have been inside...ALL....FLIPPIN...DAY. "Why don't you take her out in the snow??" you say? She gave me this look... And… Continue reading …spending time
