If you have tweens, teens or young adult daughters…but this book!!!

This books was absolutely amazing. I had so many “aha” moments.

Probably best parenting-related book I’ve ever read. Or maybe I just really needed it right now to know that they are not crazy and I’m not crazy (or maybe we both are 🤪). .damour

“A doctor wouldn’t say ‘fibula bone, she would just say ‘fibula’”

[insert “don’t mess with Grey’s Anatomy” face]

It’s the second time Tom White has criticized Grey’s Anatomy and, therefore, the second time I’ve questioned our marriage.

“Alice: How long is forever?
White Rabbit: Sometimes, just one second.”
L.C.

It feels like a second but it’s been 10 years.

Time flies when you are having fun.

I’ve loved you more every day.

It’s so wonderful that we spent our 10th anniversary with a date to the oldest bookstore in the world. My 13th year old self would be super proud.

You are my favorite person of all.

Some friends ground you, give you more grace than you deserve and let you hang out with them even if you can barely keep up.

Some friends make it easy to laugh, frown and talk for hours.

Angie, i hope we are always friends!

When they grow up, I want fruits and veggies to be part of their normal every day food. ⁣
⁣
It’s much easier to buy a dollar Mac n cheese, or a can of chili with beans and I still do that from time to time, but I also want them to be used to seeing all kinds of colors in their food. ⁣
⁣
Today, Olivia helped me grocery shop and, as I was laying all the food in our table, she exclaimed with a twinkle in her eye, “it’s so pretty! It’s like we are eating the rainbow.” 🌈⁣
⁣
She was right, there were green avocados, cucumbers, zucchini. There were yellow lemons and red tomatoes. There were orange cuties and peppers. There were brown kiwis and purple onions. ⁣
⁣
I hope that even when food is not exciting as the rainbow, she’ll just have found it “normal” to eat veggies and fruits. ⁣

⁣
🥬Ask them to pick a veggie they want to try at the store. Make trying a “new” thing part of the normal. ⁣
⁣
🍆 Have them help you cook the meal (my girls love the spiralizer). Kids that cook a meal are more likely to eat it. ⁣
⁣
🌽 Make fun shapes with the food. ⁣
⁣
🍊 Set the example. If they see you eating them, they will want to give it a try. ⁣
⁣
🍅my favorite tip (and how my parents kept me interested in veggies): help them learn what each veggies helps your body with (like onions are good for circulation and avocados for your brain). ⁣
⁣
What’s your kiddo’s favorite veggie?⁣

Impromptu pizza party before movie night at school.

As much as I would prefer a little more notice [cough, cough kyrsten], I’m really glad they are here laughing and having fun.

Happy birthday to the love of my life, you are only getting better each year that passes, I hope your year is full of fun adventures!!!

You are the hardest worker I know. There’s nothing you do in which you are not striving for excellence. I love your curiosity for the world…for everything, for everyone!!! You’ve taught me that everyone has a story and we might be privilege to get to hear it.

Let’s keep laughing and learning together. I’m honored to be your life partner and your dive buddy for your next year around the Sun 🥰

I bought pants today. I love them. I used to chronically not buy pants because I’ve always hated my legs. But I speak love words to them every day and it’s helping.

Finally got a haircut after a year and a half. Because…I’m a mom.

I usually chop it off and then come back in a year but the girls asked that I keep it longer.

It always feels good to get a haircut.

I still have never dyed it and will keep it that way until I get greys.
