Hi Reader, The girls started 7th grade on Wednesday. Seventh. Grade. And the bus stop dream I built this entire business around got an upgrade I didn't see coming: Poppy came with us. If you're picturing a calm little puppy trotting along on a leash, no. She is mostly a tiny land shark before 7am....

Hi Reader, I thought this week was going to be chill. A few meetings, one last slow week before school starts Monday. Then came the 7th grade walk-through. If you're a twin mom, you know: two kids, two schedules, and somehow you're supposed to be present for both at the exact same time. The air...

Hi Reader, It's officially back-to-school prep week at our house. Yes, I know we have a few more weeks left. But I like to plan ahead. (Shocking, I know.) This week's list: Haircuts. New shoes. Backpack organization. Reviewing bus routes. Mapping out calendars. And here's the twist: in our city, the...

Hi Reader, My girls have worked all summer on one goal: make the 7th grade cheer squad. Gymnastics on Monday nights. Conditioning 2 to 3 nights a week. All summer. 40 girls tried out. 13 made it.

Hi Reader, We wrapped up the 4th of July weekend hanging with Poppy (our new puppy) and, if I am being honest, three naps on Sunday. Three. I am not sorry about a single one of them because 5:00 am wake-ups are real! Bike parades and puppy's! 🩷 Then I rolled straight into one of my favorite weeks of...
