I knew this would happen. The clock read 1:15am and my son was awake crying and coughing. My husband had just flown out of town to perform a wedding and like clockwork, my son got sick as soon as my husband was gone. Some things require all you’ve got in the tank and more. When my son gets sick and

You can always count on kids to be honest! We asked kids of all ages: "What's something your mom always does?" and, "What do you love most about your mom?" Their answers are the perfect Mother's Day present for any parent:

I know, I know. I can hear your eyes rolling at the title. Having a dog is NOT the same thing as having a baby. But hang in there with me for a second.... While I don't have human children, I've had a TINY taste of the difficulties of parenting as my husband and I are currently fostering two 6-week-

Talking about your struggles is always easier with a friend. After releasing a video about my postpartum depression, I sat down with Bekah (from the midday show on WayFM) to dig a little deeper. We cover everything from why I decided to share such a personal story to how you can identify if you are

While Bart Millard from MercyMe was listening to the show, he had some ideas on how to make life easier for moms.

I’m ready to leave the shop, but one thing stands in my way—the door. Not exactly a formidable barrier, but the odds are against me. My preschooler is running in circles, while my toddler pulls at my left hand; my right hand grips this terribly unwieldy baby carrier. Inside the carrier is my infant

Here's the thing. Kids will make their own mistakes. They will falter and flounder through this painful thing called growing up. The best we can do for them, after all the teaching and preaching is done, is to continue to be a listening ear, an encouraging coach...and yes, of course at times that wi

Dear Sweet Child of Mine, I know you are so big now. You're growing up faster than I could have ever imagined. In my mind, you went from 16 months to 16 years in about two weeks. It's gone by so quickly for me and even as you wish away your youth in exchange for budding independence, I can still see
