Mads is a chatterbox. CHATTERBOX. She talks non-stop, something that I lovelovelove and will always treasure. My hopes for her teen years include maintaining her chatterbox tendencies with her rockstar, oh-so-cool parents. I can dream. But that’s light-years away, right parental veterans??? Okay – don’t want to think about it! So, it was a regular morning driving to daycare. She and I have very philosophical and thought-provoking conversations on the way to school. From what Winnie the Pooh will be eating for lunch to...

All or Nothing // All or Nothing?
Crossroads. Damnit. I started viewing the controversial “American Blogger” documentary.

My meat and potatoes man didn’t take a second look at the fact that we weren’t having, well, meat and potatoes. With consistently...

Scenes from Yesterday // 02
Our family celebrated the Easter holiday yesterday, and I can’t express enough how enjoyable this day was for us. We laughed until we were out of breath, ate until our tummies were almost uncomfortably full and searched for eggs until the littlest one finally said she was done. A blessed day that reminded us that God is great, His Son is awe-inspiring and we will always remember…because without sacrifice, our family, friends and festivities would not be possible. However you...

Spring Time for Mama + Mads
I very much enjoy online window shopping. So many fantastic, little shops are out there. I can’t get enough of their individual personalities. With spring officially here, I started to look for a few pieces for the little lady and myself. I’m surprised that I picked out clothing for her and accessories for me. Just happened like that. Surprised there are no shoes! I encourage you to check out these gems for a little something special – maybe for you...
