Reasons I love the Wine Mom Trope (feat. Good Girls) 🍷

Not so ironically, I’m drinking wine right now. 🍷 I’m in our dining room which is inhabited by my husband’s bulky ass full-fledged drum set, taking up half the space. In front of me is a rug I love, rolled up because my three year old peed on it. So…anyway…now that you’re with me. In […]

Influence is greater than Force

**Well, that was a fail. ** 🤷🏾‍♀️ Its a rainy day in Atlanta and I just got back from storytime with my three year old son, and the sentence above pretty much sums up my initial feelings about it. When we first got into the room, things were cool. We were early, so story time […]

Say Deuces to Your Detrimental Feelings

Y’all. Yesterday was such a struggle with my three-year-old. My husband and I have been talking about having another one soon, and today I was starting to wonder if I even wanted any more kids at all. Yes. It got bad. So what had happened was…he peed on the floor. *face palm* and…wait for it… […]

The Power of Comfort: Sometimes you just need a chill pill!

The other week I was tired of feeling serious. **yuck, adulting** So I turned on Shrek two. I don’t know what in the world wanted me to watch that film so badly but it truly warmed my home. As soon as I turned it on, my husband came out of his man cave, my toddler […]

What’s more…this is how much hair he has: So then, as I continued filling up the dishwasher, I realized hey, MAYBE if we […]

The Power of Discomfort 🤦🏾‍♀️

I walk into his room, and like clockwork, his diaper and his pants are at his ankles. He stands there, smiling at me with his pants-less self. ”Come on, baby!” I yell. I sound mad, but I’m not really mad. And the toddler is smiling, so he knows where I’m coming from. I’m done feeling […]

A Wonderfully Boring Birthday 🙃

I remember throwing a party, or trying to, when I was 21 and only a couple of people showed. *face palm* You know what that taught me? Ain’t nobody gonna stop my shine. Yesterday was my birthday. It was a pretty typical day for me, and it wasn’t until the very end of it that […]

Love Above Water: Forbidden Billionaire Romance

“Girl if you don’t hurry up and pick one of those fine ass men…I swear.” Her hands struck me from behind and threw me forward, closer to the line of men floating before me. My bones shook and my brain zoomed a mile a minute. Such a big decision, and such a big cost. One […]
