To the Mom Who Vacations at Target
Before I begin, I need to say this. Dear Target, thank you on behalf of moms everywhere. You just get us. “I think we are out of trash bags,” I said one evening to my husband after he came home from work. We had a three month old baby boy who was nursing, and I rarely...
Yes! Another “To the Momma” Post.
A few weeks ago, I overheard a conversation at the store between a husband and wife about how many "mom posts" were being shared Facebook. As a blogger, I couldn't help but listen to their exchange. (Also, they were talking loudly and they were right in front of me in...
What I Really Want…
I think about you constantly. You are never far from my thoughts. From the moment I wake up and all throughout my day, you are always on my mind. And when I am awake at night, all I can think about is how much I will need you tomorrow. I don’t want to go one day...
10 End of the Year Awards (For Parents)

To My Mama Friends This Christmas
You know all of those things that you do every day? All of the ones that keep you going from the time that you wake up until the time that you go to bed? All of the moments where little kids or babies or not quite adults need your hands and your attention and your...

To The Momma at Chick-Fil-A
I saw you come in with your sweet kids the other day - one on your hip and one around your leg. I watched as you ordered your lunch, and then set the baby on the counter to dig through the diaper bag for your wallet. I wanted to cheer for you as they handed you your...
Little Girls and Their Mommas
“You’re a mean momma!” She shouted as she pushed her tiny thirty pound body away from mine. They were hurtful words, but I knew she didn’t mean them. I mean, she did, but… she didn’t really. On this day, I wouldn’t let her have another juice box before bed. “Sister....
Only Good Mommies…
I used to think that good mommies were a group of women that did everything right. You know. Good mommies don’t yell. They have endless patience. Good mommies balance life at home and work and every other group/organization they or their kids are a part of. Good...
To the Momma Who Needs to Vent
"I just cleaned this house!" I sigh as I walk out of my bedroom and find a living room floor covered in toys AGAIN! NO! No No No! I'm not cleaning this mess again today. I'm not doing it! I'm not going to spend all day sorting through these toys to get them put away...
You’re Worth Your Own Attention
It was late… not like Tonight Show late… like infomercial late… like somewhere there is a farmer getting up to start his day late…. Like almost tomorrow late. And I hadn’t slept one bit. Don’t get me wrong here. My head had touched the pillow. It had touched the...
Somewhere There Is a Woman…
Somewhere there is a woman rocking a baby in the middle of the night. She is exhausted and tired, and as she rocks back and forth, she cries silently into his curly hair. His head tucked up under her chin, his chubby hands holding onto her, she holds him tightly and...
