Only Child No More
Whenever there were ice breakers during college and we had to state an ‘interesting fact’ about ourselves (‘interesting fact’ in quotations, because let’s be honest, the facts were never that interesting) I would say that I was an only child.

Priorities
I mentioned that I am trying really hard to make myself and my own happiness a priority as of late. To be honest, it is something you hear at every turn once you have a baby: Make time for yourself! Nap when they nap! Carve out Me Time! Do things for yourself, too! But too […]
We Got Schooled
My husband wanted to take charge on this one. He spearheaded the research, sending me links and reviews of many options once he found ones he liked. He figured out all of the correct deadlines, exams, necessary paperwork, scores, and general steps of the process. He even took a morning off of work so that […]
