Because kids can be picky about Toothpaste too! True Story mamas, for the last 6 months or so, I have been buying every type of child's toothpaste my local drugstore shelves had. All in the hopes of finding ONE that both my littles would use and enjoy. I say both because apparently their toothpaste flavour [...]
2018 decided it was going to welcome it's self with bad news and heartbreak. January 1st at 10:00am my best friend, my role model, my grandmother passed away quietly in hospital after a month or so of deteriorating health and a stroke she suffered a year prior and was never really able to recover fully [...]
It's amazing to me how someone I love with all my heart can make me feel absolutely powerless, lost and angry. I call her my threenager - an alternate version of my beautiful, loving, sweet and kind little darling Madison. My first born, who for as long as I can remember has always been my [...]
