She’s Two, Me Too, And Fathers:

Whichever kind of princess she ends up being, I just pray that she knows she is loved, adored, supported, has so much value, and her body and worth is not made up by what others may think of her. (This post is now going to take a turn)

Parenting And Poop:

Clearly what I am about to drop on you is a story about poop, because who doesn’t love a good poop story.

Learning The Girly Stuff

I am scared... so very scared. I am scared because I have zero skills and knowledge as it relates to anything girl and how to make Emma look even more cute with some rockin updo's.
