Nobody talks about third trimester poops.
Like… why am I constantly in the bathroom? Nobody prepared me for THIS part. I expected the heartburn, the swelling, the waddling… but not feeling like my body is in a permanent cleanse mode.

It’s uncomfortable, it’s exhausting, and honestly it makes me feel gross sometimes. Pregnancy already has enough going on, and then you add this? Nobody tells you about it because it’s not “cute” or “glowy” but it’s real.

So if you’re pregnant and you feel like you live on the toilet… you’re not alone.

Kids don’t ‘owe’ their parents for being raised. You chose to have them, they didn’t choose to be here.
So no, my kids don’t ‘owe me’ respect, visits, or support in my old age just because I fed and clothed them.
My job is to love them unconditionally, raise them right, and give them the tools to build their own life. Respect isn’t automatic just because you gave birth, it’s earned through how you treat your kids.

And I will never guilt my kids into feeling like they’re responsible for my happiness or future. They’re not here to fill my voids.
They’re here to live.

I don’t know how we got here so fast.
One minute I was rocking you to sleep, the next I’m packing your backpack and sending you off to school.

This morning, you looked so proud with your big smile, new shoes, ready to take on the world. Meanwhile, I was fighting back tears behind the camera, pretending I was fine. Because how do you let go, even just a little, of the tiny human who has been your whole world since day one?

I know you’re going to learn so much. I know you’ll make friends, create memories, and grow into the person you’re meant to be. But a part of me is aching, because today was the first of many days where I’ll have to watch you walk away, a little more independent each time.

No one really tells you that motherhood is just a series of beautiful goodbyes. And today was the first big one.

So here’s to your first day of school, my baby. You’re ready for this… I just hope my heart is too.

A good dad is a blessing. But a good stepdad? That’s something different. That’s a man who had no obligation to you, no tie through blood, no reason to step in… and yet he chose to.

He chose to love a child he didn’t create.
He chose to show up when he could’ve stayed on the sidelines.
He chose to carry a title he never had to take.

And that choice makes it powerful. Because a good stepdad proves that family isn’t just DNA, it’s love, commitment, and sacrifice.

Sometimes a good stepdad can mean even more than a good dad… because he didn’t have to be there. But he wanted to be.

If your kid says “look at this!” and you brush them off or ignore them… that’s not harmless, that’s disrespectful.

Kids don’t need us to buy them every toy or plan extravagant days. What they do need is our attention. When they call us to look at something, it’s not about the Lego tower or the silly dance, they’re really saying, “see me, notice me, I matter to you.”

And if we consistently dismiss them, the message they start to receive is the opposite. That they’re not important. That their voice doesn’t deserve to be heard.

So when your child says “look!” stop, look, smile, clap. Because one day they’ll stop asking you to notice at all.

They might have come from a broken home, but they sure as hell don’t have a broken mom anymore.
I picked myself up, I healed what tried to destroy me, and I refuse to let my kids grow up in the same pain I once knew.
This mama isn’t broken, she’s rebuilt, stronger than ever. And my babies will always know the difference.

“You stopped reaching out.”
No. That’s not the truth.

What really happened is you didn’t check in when you knew times were tough. You didn’t ask how I was holding up. You didn’t care enough to get the updates on my life, even though I would’ve been there for you in a heartbeat.

And the thing is, people love to flip the script like that. They’ll say you pulled away, when really, you just stopped begging for the bare minimum. You stopped chasing conversations that only you were trying to keep alive. You stopped pouring into someone who couldn’t even be bothered to send a simple “how are you?”

So no, I didn’t stop reaching out.
You just stopped showing up.
And once I saw that clearly, I chose my peace over your absence.

I’ll never understand parents who take their kids out to eat… just to tell them they can’t order what they want.
Like, mom and dad are sitting there with a three-course meal, appetizer, entrée, dessert, drinks, the works. And their kid? Stuck with a plain grilled cheese and water because “that’s cheaper.”

Why even bring them to a restaurant if you’re going to treat them like a burden? Going out to eat should be fun for everyone at the table, not just the adults.

You don’t have to let your kid go wild with the lobster tail, but at least let them feel included. Let them pick something they actually want off the menu. Let them taste different foods, be part of the experience, and make the memory too.

Because here’s the truth: one day, those little kids are going to grow up. And they’re going to remember whether they were treated like an afterthought, or like someone who mattered at the table.

Nobody talks about pregnancy nose enough.
Like ma’am… why does my face suddenly look like it came with free shipping AND handling??

I signed up for a bump, maybe some swollen ankles… but not to have a nose that enters the room before I do.

And don’t even get me started on the superhuman smelling powers…my man opens a bag of chips two rooms away and suddenly I’m Sherlock Holmes on the case.

Pregnancy glow? More like pregnancy nose.
But hey… at least my baby will never get lost. I’ll sniff him out.

Teach your kids to respect animals.

Don’t let them pull on tails, smack dogs in the face, or chase cats until they’re hiding under the bed.
Don’t laugh when they step on bugs or throw rocks at birds.
That’s not “kids being kids.” That’s teaching them it’s okay to hurt something weaker than them.

Respect starts at home. Show them how to pet gently, feed carefully, and give space when an animal needs it. Show them that bugs have a job, birds have families, and pets have feelings.

Because the way your kids treat animals now?
That’s the way they’ll treat people later.
