Know Mommy

11/21/2025

I love being this girl’s mama. She brings so much light into our home with her joy, her sweetness, and her little spark of fire. Even on the days when she’s a sassy, emotional whirlwind, she feels like such a gift. Her brothers adore her, and her dad ADORES her. Being a girl mom is something I never expected I would get to be, and I don’t take it for granted.

I’ve been thinking a lot about how each of my kids has received a different version of me as I’ve grown up right alongside them. When the boys were little, I was still figuring out who I was, learning, healing, and discovering who I wanted to be. They taught me so much about love, patience, advocacy, and resilience.

This season feels different. I feel calmer, more grounded, more joyful, stronger, and more at peace in motherhood and life than ever before. All the inner work I’ve done over the years shows up in how I mother now, and they ALL get to experience that version of me.

I’m thankful for the journey, for who I’ve become through motherhood, and for the chance to show up as this version of me for each of them, especially this girl.

Moms, hear me—you can heal your wounds, rise above emotional struggles, and feel grounded and rooted in motherhood and life. It takes work. It can be messy. But it is possible. And if you need support, I’m here to help.

October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month 🕯️

This month, we hold space for the mothers, fathers, and families who carry the weight of loss.

For the babies who were deeply loved but never got to stay.

For the women who had to say goodbye far too soon.

Your grief is valid. Your story matters.

We honor you, your strength, and the little lives who will always be remembered.

Pregnancy loss is more common than most realize. About 1 in 4 pregnancies may end in miscarriage. Stillbirth happens in roughly 1 in 170 births, and 5 to 6 babies per 1,000 born alive in the U.S. do not survive their first year.

If you’ve walked this path, may you feel seen, supported, and surrounded by love. And if you haven’t personally, but know someone who has, take a moment to reach out. A simple “I’m thinking of you” can mean everything.

By speaking openly and holding space together, we help break the silence that too often surrounds this journey and create room for healing. No one should have to walk this path alone.

💜 Janelle

As parents, we live in that bittersweet space of knowing time moves too quickly. One day our children will leave the nest, and all we can do is hope we’ve taught them well and loved them deeply.

Until that day comes, we hold on. We show up. We do the quiet, meaningful work of raising our young, often without thanks or pause, but with a love that runs deeper than words, shaping their world while they still live in ours.

It’s not always easy, but it matters. And if we pause long enough, we can see the magic woven into the everyday moments.

To all the moms showing up every day, I see you, and I honor the love you pour into your little ones. Let’s continue to hold on to the magic and remember that what we do matters. 🌙

As moms, it’s easy to feel overstimulated. The cries of a baby who won’t stop. The whining in the car that feels endless. The homework battles where emotions run high. The lack of sleep. The constant “mom, mom, mom.” Our nervous systems can only take so much before we feel like we’re about to break.

The truth is, we all get overstimulated, and that doesn’t mean we’re failing. It means we’re human. What matters is how we support ourselves in those moments so we can respond with patience instead of frustration.

Some simple tools that help me are:
✨ Taking deep breaths to reset my body
✨ Using calming aromatherapy to ground my nervous system
✨ Wearing Loops (noise-lowering earbuds that turn down the volume of life without blocking it out completely)

We can’t always control the noise, but we can choose how we care for ourselves in the middle of it. Sometimes that extra support makes all the difference. 💜
