Living is a whole new adventure when you suddenly find yourself alone, widowed and the mother of four young boys a lot like their Dad.
Creating Space
If I come outside whether on my veranda or out on the kitchen porch and my kids don’t know, a lot of times I can have just a few minutes by myself.
Enough As You Are
There’s so many parenting fails I have. Probably the best one is when I was trying to be a Dad because my kids Dad died.
Allowed Me To Live
Our business, the channel on Youtube: TKOR or The King of Random has allowed me to be a mom to my kids.
Loss Creates Space
It never stops hurting and often feels like hope is a thing of the past.
Family Portraits
Our last family photoshoot with dad was right after Jayce was born. That’s more than 6 years ago.
I Didn’t Choose Out
My husband was the kind of unique that was gentle hearted with a twinkle of funness. I miss that with all my heart. I expect to think as highly about my next person and whatever makes him unique.
I Can Take Myself Dancing
I can buy myself flowers, write my name in the sand… I can take myself dancing. I can hold my own hand.
How to Get a Natural Tan in the Winter
This last week has been tough for me. I took my kids on a cruise and haven’t posted any pictures because it was all so hard for me. I”m back now and I’ll recoup and return to my life; my wild crazy, filled with little balls of energy and curiosity life with my boys. For this moment:
A Lovely Valentines
This morning I woke up to flower petals strewn all over outside my bedroom and down my stairs to the kitchen.
I’m so grateful for the many people who cared about me today. Thank you.
Sleeping With Angels
My little boy is sleeping next to me. Nearly every night one of my boys asks, “Mom, can I sleep with you?” The question always gives me conflict. I see you. A tiny person who wants to be close to the big person who makes you feel safe. Who is safe. The one who they know is their ‘home.’ I fully understand I am their safe place.
