What Being A Mom Looks Like
My husband took a picture of me the other day that I feel really sums up the stage of Motherhood that I’m in right now. The stage when your children are so attached to you that even peeing by yourself is a sin in their eyes. The picture, however unconventional, has quickly become one ofContinue reading “What Being A Mom Looks Like”
Being A Working Mom
Its cold in my room as the sun slowly creeps in through my window. My babies are sleeping in their crib and snuggly and warm. They climb into each other’s beds now to be close to one another. I have to fight myself to get dressed for work and not just put them in theContinue reading “Being A Working Mom”
Finger Painting
I got a wild idea Saturday to paint with The Conqueror and The Hun.

Part of the Club
Going out with the twins is always an adventure. Sometimes it feels like we’re sideshow freaks. Strangers see me with the girls and laugh and say they’ll pray for us.
