I think it is important to step back every once in a while and give yourself some credit as a parent. Maybe I am just speaking for myself, but I know I get wrapped up in all of the times I think that I have failed as a parent. I think for whatever reason it is somehow easier […]
Introducing my new Logo!
So excited to share my new logo designed by the very talented Alli Davis. Be sure to check out some of her fantastic photography work at Alli Davis Photography. We discussed my brand in great detail, and she really knocked it out of the park with this amazing logo. Now it is time for me to really get […]
First podcast episode is done!
I can’t believe I published my first podcast. I actually did it last night. I have edited it a little since I first published it, but I am just happy that it is out there for the world to listen to it. Now, I just need to organize my podcast schedule along with my social media schedule in […]
Thankful
As I start reflecting back on this year, I remember how important it is to be thankful. How stuff is just really stuff. The material things in life come and go. I am so thankful for my sweet boys. They mean the world to me. Sometimes I get caught up in trying to plan ahead or figure out […]
Parenting is like Marathon Training
I find it slightly ironic that I am writing this post on June 18th because I actually ran a marathon on this date seven years ago. I can’t seem to wrap my head around this fact. I probably will never run another marathon but this doesn’t bother me. Could it have been that long ago? I was hanging […]
3 years later
Wow, it’s been three years since I left Minnesota. It is hard for me to wrap my head around this. I truly miss the people and the awesome summer weather. Time is a funny thing. Sometimes it seems to go by at snail’s pace and other times it goes by so fast you want to try and catch […]
It will be hard.
I know it is easy to say that someone else can do something but you can’t. I decided in June of this year that I would start running again. I signed up for a 5k for October, I got on my running shoes, and I started running again. Sounds simple, right? Well, it was really hard. I was […]
Do yourself a favor
Please stop comparing yourself to other moms. Yes, I am a hypocrite, but I am getting better at not focusing on what others appear to do better than me. Why do I ask of this favor? We are never comparing apples to apples. Kids have different personalities, kids are different ages etc. I could go on and on […]
Class of 2030
Well, my oldest survived his first two days of Kindergarten. He loves it so far, and his teacher seems amazing. So proud of my boys and how much they have learned and taught me in the last few years. I know my kiddos learn by example, so I am doing my best to stay strong with all of […]
Today
Well, today was not my best day so far, but I ran 4 miles. I hopefully sweat all of my frustrations out. Some people do hot yoga. Not me, I run probably with a not so happy face. There is construction work going on all around my house, but I don't care. I run anyway. Why? I have […]
