    Let me start off with, it’s hard for me to say (or write) “armpits” … I feel like a little kid, hearing a classmate fart or something #sorrynotsorry but as I continue to…

Wait a minute.. You mean to tell me I can sit nex Wait a minute.. You mean to tell me I can sit next to my husband and actually watch our kids baseball game together?! I kinda like it. 💕 Don’t get me wrong.. I love when he coaches, but having him there next to me cheering on our kiddies and strategizing plays.. it’s like my love language. Plus having a second pair of eyes on Jameson makes the world of difference. Let’s go Numbers 3️⃣ and 6️⃣!
This weekend was a first. For the last few years This weekend was a first. For the last few years we’ve booked a fall camping package in Lake George (about 2.5 hours away) and loved it so much. There was like 100 kids (not really, but 8 families) and we looked forward to it each year. Except last year, Sophia’s soccer schedule started conflicting with our weekend getaways. Arriving late on a Friday night to only leave early on Sunday mornings was tiring and stressful on all. So this year with Sophia playing soccer and baseball, and Brayden playing baseball, we decided it would just be easier to book a fall camping package locally. Andrew and I struggled with this decision for a bit because we’ve built so many memories each fall with our “camping family.” But, as we now have two kids involved in sports, it just didn’t make sense to put ourselves through the stress of trying to balance it all. I can remember some seasoned mamas warning me about this stage.. meaning, your children’s schedules run yours and there will be sacrifices... But, instead of sacrificing our love for camping, we decided to just do it closer to home -to have the best of both worlds! So this weekend was our first stay and it was perfect! Just a 20 minute ride from our home and we were able to bring the kids to their sporting events. Plus, we knew a few other friends camping there so the kids have others to play and jump in the river with 🤣 I know there will be more stages and sacrifices for the things we enjoy, for our kiddies, but we are so glad to have made this work.. the kids are happy which means this mama is feeling all the feels #sparkle

My eyes...my eyes are in some serious pain. Neve My eyes...my eyes are in some serious pain. Never would have I expected my eyes to feel as if I can’t keep them open halfway through the day. I almost feel as if they are swollen or look half open. Plus, my contacts make my them feel like potato chips. I’ve learned this is called “eye strain and fatigue” and let me tell you- the struggle is real and pretty brutal. I immediately thought I should invest in a pair of blue light blocking glasses since my workday is now all digital as I’m teaching virtually. However, I remember reading my contacts offer the same protection as the blue light blocking glasses. I called my optometrist and he recommended purchasing +1 prescription glasses to help lessen the strain on my eyes. Quick trip to Dollar General and here we are with my $6 pair of readers that totally aged me by about 5 years 🤣😩🤦🏼‍♀️ Fingers crossed this provides some relief and of course I’ll keep you posted. Have any of mamas experienced this? Of course it’s not just from teaching virtually- but just spending A LOT of time in front of a computer. Love to hear how your eyes adjusted.
Happy First day of school from our future daycare Happy First day of school from our future daycare owner, Daddy, and TBD. 🤣
Tomorrow it begins. ✏️ The kiddies lunchboxe Tomorrow it begins. ✏️ The kiddies lunchboxes are packed (so they don’t eat everything in our house.) Their work areas are done-ish... I originally wanted them in the same room but Sophia wants to be in my “Sparkle room” since her and Brayden’s virtual meets would interfere. And I’m hoping and praying I didn’t miss a google meet time on their schedule. 🤞🏻 Sending all you mamas much needed deep breaths, strength, love and sparkle as we all embark on a new school year just a tad bit differently. ❤️✨
My heart is bursting for this boy❤️ He’s ba My heart is bursting for this boy❤️ He’s back to school this week and I can see such a difference in him. He loves talking about his friends, his day, what he ate, what crafts he made... all with such enthusiasm and a sparkle in his eye. I just hope and pray this continues and his older siblings get the opportunity to experience the same feels sooner rather than later..🤞🏻❤️

I’m sure I’m not alone when I say social media has been pretty rough lately. Last week, I’ve experienced all emotions... crying from laughing so hard to then crying at comments targeted towards teachers, youtubers, and just too much negatively... I typically have pretty tough skin, especially being someone who likes to share all.the.things publicly, but last week got to me. With that said,I encourage you to join me to.. {yes, I’m going there} ✨Spread the Sparkle✨ Share the things that light-you-up inside on your IG or even on this thread. 💫What makes you feel the feels of joy and happiness?! 💫What puts a smile on your face? 💫 What triggered that boost of confidence to let you shine even brighter?

Morning Mamas!!!! So, my world has been pretty te Morning Mamas!!!! So, my world has been pretty tense here the last few days and I honestly had to step away from my phone yesterday. 🤦🏼‍♀️ However, I’m determined to not let negativity, overwhelm, and just ishhhh get to me today. #goals 💪🏻 One thing that I’ve found that really makes me feel the feels is writing in my planner and identifying what I’m most grateful for. So today, I’m grateful {and sooo flippin’ excited} to FINALLY get my hair did!!! lol. I think it’s been 9-10 months since I last got it cut and colored. {I know.. luckily balayage is quarantine proof!} Please blow-up my 📱 and comment: ❤️ What are you grateful for and\or what are you doing today that lights-you-up inside.
