To my son… You are a gift. Right from the start

To my son…

You are a gift. Right from the start I knew you were different. You’ve taught me how to see people as they are, not as we expect, or want them to be. I often think you are teaching me more than I teach you. Even though you ask me hundreds of questions a day. I admire your huge heart and love for animals and your family. You wouldn’t even let me post this as if planned. You wanted pictures with your dad, sisters and pets and made me take a picture with Snoop because “he’s your son too.”

You are the best brother, friend and son we could have asked for. So thankful you’re ours!

To my daughters… My oldest, you made me a mom.

To my daughters…

My oldest, you made me a mom. Your kindness and good heart are going to make the world a brighter place. I love how you choose to see the good. Thank you for being patient with me as I’ve learned how to navigate this motherhood phase of my life and gently going through all of the “firsts” with me.

My youngest, thank you for bringing the fire and excitement back into my life. For reminding me to not get complacent. And for making me laugh every single day. Your determination and will power will get you so far in life. I hope you’ll see me as a friend and not a foe.

I hoped for one and I got two!

So thankful for my daughters. #NationalDaughtersday #CelebrateEveryDay @natdaycal

Fun mosquito fact from Ty: It's only the female mo

Fun mosquito fact from Ty: It's only the female mosquitoes that bite us. The males feed on plant juices! We've learned a lot about these pests and how to avoid them. If you ever come to my house and look at the basket hanging by the backdoor you would laugh to see the collection of @CutterRepellent products.

We love playing outside together as the sun is going down and the heat is finally bearable. But we do not love the mosquitoes, and we are serious about keeping them away.

So we stay ready. We have bought pretty much every variety of Cutter products, and one of my favorites is the Cutter Skinsations. It repels mosquitoes, ticks, and gnats and has a clean fresh scent. So we can play outside we can keep those female mosquitoes from biting us! #CutterPartner #ProtectYourPeople

I got sucked into the LulaRich documentary last we

I got sucked into the LulaRich documentary last week and couldn't peel my eyes away from watching some of the inner workings of the company and experiences of some of the women. A phrase that really hit me was the idea of the "Boss Babe" or "Boss Mom." I remember when that was a personal desire of mine. Craving the business suit, busy schedule and fancy car. Feeling important and valued.

But let me tell you what, my desire to appear successful--at least by society's standards-- has all but diminished. I left the "9 to 5" world of news reporting and spent the next 6 years trying to prove to myself that I still had it with my blog. Now I've become ok with inventing my own definition of success, and knowing that it doesn't need to look like anyone else's.

I am not going to speak for every blogger or social media creator, but for me, it's often felt like I'm on this ladder to nowhere. What's the end goal? Where's the final destination? There isn't one, we are sorta paving the way here, but social media and the way we use it are also evolving.

Well today I blogged. Like legit old school blogged like remember back in the day? Sentences rambling and writing and rolling like I used to. It felt good.

Anyway, I'm trying to find the right space in my little corner of the internet to share a life update. And looking forward to what the future holds. Link in bio.

Our three little Cougar fans! One cheerleader, one who yells at the refs, and one who’s here for the food. Good luck to all of your favorite teams this weekend. Unless you’re an ASU fan 😜. #byufootball #beatasu

Jayda 🥺. Always my little partner in crime. 9 y

Jayda 🥺. Always my little partner in crime. 9 years ago we were a photographer/model duo for Etsy shops. And now she’s behind the scenes doing more than you know. Today she looked at me and said “I wish I had a friend like you when I was growing up.” To which we both laughed because she’s still very much growing up. But also, I am her friend. Her mom first, of course, but I don’t see why I can’t be both.

I consider her my young, brilliant daughter and friend. She always has new ideas and creative ways of seeing things.

Speaking of which, she reviewed the new Cinderella movie with me (did you know about it?). And she had some great observations. Link in bio for our spoiler-free thoughts.

I teared up as I dug through my photo archives for these pictures. Long before Instagram, Jayda would direct these little photo shoots of her dressed up as Disney princesses for my blog. It was one of our first collaborations. Little did I know she’d grow up to help me create so much more magic.

Happy World Princess Week! We created a new Disney Princess Bracket to help you decide who your favorite Disney Princess is! It’s free on the blog. Just tap the link in my bio + this pic! Then come back and tell us who won as your favorite!
