Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day Oct 15, 2020 Today, as we celebrate Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day, and throughout the month of October, I honour the memory of the babies I once carried.

Choosing to Homeschool :: BTS Fall 2020/21
Happy September! Happy Back to school! And you read it right… we are choosing to homeschool! Was it an option? Absolutely! Was it an easy one? Absolutely… NOT.

Disclaimer :: We received the Coco Village Wooden Mini Market pretend play set for review. All opinions are our own.

The Impact of Social Distancing :: Homeschooling with a Toddler (In the House)
Homeschooling is one thing, but it’s a whole other ballgame homeschooling with a toddler in the house.

Running errands, learning, doing […]
The Impact of Social Distancing :: Homeschooling the Reluctant Learner
How am I going to get my work done, support my now work-at-home husband, take care of my toddler, and homeschool my reluctant learner child?

The Impact of Social Distancing on Friendships and How to Stay Connected
How the heck are we going to stay connected while we’re told to practice social distancing? Coming from a person who counts down the minutes before my little one comes home from school, or eagerly waits for her toddler to wake up from a nap – it’s gotta be bad if I’m literally a bag of […]

I’ve never really considered myself to be an anxious person. High strung maybe? With a dash of crazy? Yes. But someone with anxiety. Not really.

The Impact of Social Distancing on Family and How to Manage Life at Home
Social distancing means strengthening your family bond. I’ve always considered myself a woman destined to be a mom.

5 Strategies for Raising an Independent Toddler :: Coco Village 2 in 1 Balance Bike
Raising an Independent toddler, child, or human for that matter, hasn’t always been part of my M.O as mom. Anyone who knows me well – heck, anyone who’s seen me with anyone’s child, let alone my own, knows that I completely define the meaning of helicopter parent. I am guilty of hovering, following, peeking, checking […]
