Best Halloween Ever
Let me tell you, Halloween is usually not my thing. I’m the first to roll my eyes at the endless costume ads, pumpkin spice this-and-that, and people decorating their yards like it’s a gothic amusement park. But this Halloween? This Halloween was perfect. I spent the night chilling with my…

14 Years Old
Yesterday was my middle daughter’s birthday—14 years old! How did that even happen? I swear, I just blinked, and now here we are, one foot in the teenage years, one foot still clinging to her childhood. It’s absolutely crazy how fast time flew by. One minute I’m chasing her around…

Mental Health, Yes I said It
Mental health is something we all have, but somehow it’s still seen by some as this delicate little flower that can’t be mentioned without getting weird looks, side eyes, or unsolicited “just think positive” advice. And that’s if you’re lucky. Sometimes people just avoid the subject altogether as if you’re…

Oh Sleep, Where Art Thou
Lately, sleep and I have been on pretty terrible terms. Like, we’re talking full-on breakup status. I’m out here busting my butt, running around, doing a million things every day, and what do I get in return? Maybe four hours of trash sleep that does absolutely nothing for me. I…

Quality Time Together
There’s something uniquely special about spending time with my daughters. As they grow, I’ve noticed how our bond evolves, especially when we find activities that we all genuinely enjoy. Lately, our go-to bonding time has been spent in the colorful, creative world of Roblox, where we’ve discovered a shared love…

My Crazy Circus
Raising three daughters is like being the ringmaster of a circus where all the performers are hormonal, opinionated, and apparently hell-bent on driving me to drink. My oldest is all about makeup, beauty, and fashion—basically, she’s on her way to becoming a Kardashian without the reality show contract (yet). And…

Exhausted
It’s 3:30 am, and here I am, dead tired and struggling to keep my eyes open. Meanwhile, my five-year-old seems to be running on an endless supply of energy, showing no signs of wanting to go to bed. I should be used to this by now, considering that I rarely…

What A Waste
It’s such a gut punch when you realize someone you’ve been hoping would change for the better is still stuck in the same old patterns. I’ve been dealing with this for 7 1/2 years now with the father of my youngest child. No, there’s no tragic love story here. I…

Damn Facebook
Trying to maintain a sunny disposition is like walking a tightrope above a pit of angry alligators. Most days, I’m all about the good vibes and positive energy. But every now and then, something pops up and pokes that big, red “do not press” button on my temper. Case in…
