When Alex gets himself tangled in the fallout from the fight, he decides to make it up ..read more

Season: Five Minute Friday

Maternity leave is officially over and this week I returned to work. I’m slowly emerging as a writer once again and looking forward to things coming up this season with my business. I am jumping back into my Five Minute Friday writing group today. The prompt this week is Season. With the return to the classroom this week, I am shifting seasons in my life from my cozy maternity leave. Five days in as a working mom and I am already missing those cuddles and smiles. I’m fortunate to work in a school that values me as an educator and that has given me space to emerge at my own pace. For the most ..read more

5 Breakthroughs From A Writer’s Retreat
The Ameri Brit Mom

This past weekend in Santa Fe, New Mexico, writers from around the world gathered for a retreat called “A Writing Room”. Ann Lamott, Julia Cameron, SARK, Ryan Spear and Amie McNee were among the speakers slated to inspire those in attendance so it’s not surprising that hundreds of creatives attended either in-person or online via livestream. I attended the event using the Livestream link purchased in advance because I’m only seven weeks postpartum and not even close to ready for that kind of travel. Over the course of the weekend I learned and implemented many new practices and made numerous ..read more

Daily List Notepad

Throughout the day the average person has over 6,000 thoughts*. Some are better than others at sorting through those thoughts, but many of us struggle to organize and remember the important information that filters through the channels throughout the day. We create mental lists and try to carry those around with us. There are many ways we can train our brains to collect information in logical ways, but no single system is beneficial for all neurotypes. I’ve tried keeping lists in my phone, but those tend to get lost in the appbyss (see what I did there!) and I struggle to remember where I wrot ..read more

Escape: Five Minute Friday

After a busy week celebrating my oldest daughter’s eleventh birthday I am joining my writing companions for a weekly link-up on Five Minute Friday. Today we are using the prompt Escape to unite our ideas. Check out my post below: From the moment the automatic doors slid open I knew I didn’t belong. The weight of the air in the Cancer Center lobby added ten pounds of gravity to my body. My legs that were strong moments before felt as though I’d strapped a bag of sand around each ankle. As I crossed the threshold I grabbed my husband’s arm as I tried to remind myself why I was checking in among ..read more

It’s been a long time since I joined my favorite writing community, Five Minute Friday. I’ve missed the weekly prompts and linkups and so I’m excited to re-emerge in the group. This week we are writing for five minutes on the topic RELY. Below is my unedited five minutes of reflection on this word. Right now we are in the baby phase when I cannot rely on much of a routine. At five weeks, my gorgeous boy is making big developmental moves. Each day brings something new. He’s starting to let me know when he’s hungry and small smiles are giving glimpses into his personality. The gurgles and coos ..read more

On August 4th we welcomed our third child. Camden was 7lb 7oz and 18 inches. His big sisters were over the moon to meet him and smothered him with love. My recovery post-Cesarian has been smooth, and now that we are a month out from delivery, I am starting to feel like myself again. We are a blessed family and the miracle of life is not lost on us. Our family unit is complete after the birth of our healthy baby boy. Although he was quite the surprise we cannot imagine life without him already. Right now, he is becoming more alert and responsive to the world around him. He makes friends with c ..read more

It’s been a while. And today I feel ready to explain where I’ve been since taking a few steps back from The Ameri Brit Mom in January. First of all, it had been my intention to spend the beginning of 2023 focusing on myself and family. However, my two weeks off turned to twelve when I received some surprising news just before the turn of the New Year. I am expecting my third baby in August of 2023! I laid low during the first trimester for several reasons: -Those first weeks of pregnancy kicked my butt. I was exhausted at all times and so I listened to my body and slept as often as I could ..read more
