Jake is a tribute to my kids, my love for them, my hopes and dreams for their future, my love of […]

Natural Body Products and Tea… with a Give-a-way!

I first met Connie through a local natural mothers group here in Charleston. I tried her tea and I have not stopped drinking it since… years later, I can say without a doubt her teas are my favorite… ever! And the more I’ve gotten to know Connie, the more I love her… teas or not. She is just, absolutely an honest, true, dear soul, and I really respect everything she does. She homeschools two of her precious children (and one on the way! Congrats Connie!) and fills her days with creating equisite teas, delectable salt scrubs and moisturizers, doedarants, bath

Thoughts on Health… Loving my Daughter, Loving Myself

These preteen years are uncharted waters for me as a parent. I find that they bring up lots of intense emotions for me, and I wonder why. I am finding that loving my daughter, truly loving her, even in her angry pre-teen moments when she thinks she isn’t lovable, brings me a deep satisfaction and often moves me to tears. Don’t get me wrong… when I speak of my daughter being emotional I’m talking about a 15 minute spell of her feeling irritable and stand-offish… understandable when I take a look at her pre-teen body and all the changes that

Chocolate Chip cookie recipe… My Favorite Thing… in my Stomach?!?!

My two menfolk love cookies, especially chocolate chip. But my daughter… not so much. In fact, she won’t eat cookies in general. I thought all kids were supposed to love cookies… but guess she got some of this from me… I typically don’t like cake and ice cream. Even as a kid. So it became my mission to find a cookie that I could bake and have my *whole family* enjoy… my daughter included. Finally, after months of excruciating testing (not that my son or husband were complaining) I found a cookie that my daughter loves too! But in these

Poem of My Life

This is a poem about my life. It is very raw and real and the truest thing I know, for me. It is the story of my existence. I feel like I’ve had two lives… I’ve been two people… the person I was before my family, and the person I have become, almost instantly, after becoming a mother. The person I was before… I don’t love to think about her. I was creative and full of energy, but also full of nerves and never ever comfortable in my own skin. Often critical of others and preferring to compete with life

Thoughts on Health… Fibromyalgia

When you follow your bliss, doors open where you would not have thought there would be doors, and where there wouldn’t be a door for anyone else. – Joseph Campbell This one is personal. I carry all of my tension in my neck and shoulders. Painful trigger points, tension headaches, tenderness in my upper back and neck so strong that at times I can’t even wear a bathing suit or a sports bra or a ponytail, or anything pulling on my neck at all… sometimes, even a necklace is too much, has me on my knees begging for mercy. I

My Baby

This huge guy, running at me across the living room, is my little baby. Turning 7. Waaaaahhhhhh! In one weekend, he turns from a young child (6) to an older kid (7)… or at least that is how it feels to me. Oh my goodness, to top it off, he lost his second tooth as well. I love you forever and ever Miles. No matter how big your feet get. Even though we wear the same size shoe (what the heck?!?! You are 7 years old!?!? How come I have to order us both the same sized Crocs?). And even
