Learning to embrace motherhood, always more fully each day, is both the most challenging and the most rewarding aspect of my life. I write my experiences for your sake and for mine. These are the things I am passionate about, the things I want to learn more about, and the things that make me who I am.
Being an elementary teacher, an ESL coach, and getting my Master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction has prepared me for parenting in ways that I wish everyone could experience. One of the most important things I’ve learned is to create an environment conducive for learning that allows for independent exploration.
Parenting is truly a team effort. I love bringing what I’ve learned during my teaching experience to the table, and my husband and I constantly talk about our parenting philosophies, the choices we make and why, the goals we have, and the needs of each one of our children.
Even though it’s not always easy, being a mom has transformed me into the person I’ve always been meant to be. I enjoy sharing what I’ve learned pertaining to pregnancies, births, postpartum recoveries, newborns, breastfeeding, teething, sleep, and what it means to be a mom.
So much of what popular culture believes about health and nutrition is fueled by $$$ and just plain WRONG, but jumping on the counter culture bandwagon doesn’t always work either. Let me set the record straight with research, science, and what has worked for our family.
Although I’m no gourmet chef, since becoming a mom, I have actually gotten pretty good at making healthy meals that my whole family enjoys…and I do it on a pretty good budget too! You can probably just scroll through my list of recipes for some meal ideas, or check out how I like to make some of these classics.
The Internet is almost too big these days and plagued with perfect pictures on Pinterest that cannot realistically be duplicated. Through research plus trial and error, these are the DIY projects I have done and the natural products I have made that actually WORK!
