As a young woman, I struggled with self-confidence, true beauty, and relationships. I grew up as an only child and looked to my mother for support and guidance. I was also blessed to grow up in a church with female mentors who served as role models. Although my daughter is still a baby, I know that the y... Read More »

I have fond memories of my childhood home. I grew up as an only child and we lived very simply. While my mom (who is still my best friend) and I played at the beach and shopped at the mall together, we spent a lot of time at home. I remember playing Barbies and reading stories. I remember our family dinners and weekend get togethers with extended family.

My husband and I traveled extensively before we had my son. We immersed ourselves in the Scottish culture and hope one day to bring our son back to the place where we were living when we found out were were pregnant.

That newborn became an infant who co-slept with us for over 15 months. It was so much easier to have him sleep with us because I was still nursing him in the middle of the night. Onc... Read More »

Up until a couple of years ago, I had never heard of phthalates, BPA, or parabens much less their impact on the health of my family. I have always tried to be as natural as possible by eating healthy and avoiding unnecessary chemicals. When I got pregnant with my son two years ago, I ended up on bedrest at 17 weeks which gave me too much time and not enough to do.... Read More »

I finally sat down this week and read a book. It's unbelievable really. Mia King, the national bestselling author of Good Things, has just released her newest book called Sweet Life. Without spoiling it for you (you absolutely must read this book!) the book chronicles one woman's "search for a sweeter life." Who wouldn't jump at the opportunity to leave the fa... Read More »
