Back to School:
with Amazon Fresh

This post is sponsored by Amazon, however all thoughts and opinions are my own. The 2021-2022 school year is underway and if you're anything like me, you're still trying to pull it all together.  After over a year of virtual learning, this Momma definitely felt a little rusty at certain things.  One of which was making lunch for school.  How many snacks should I add?  Can they get juice or milk at school?  So many questions.  One thing that made it easy was shopping in one pla… Read more

Schools Are Closed
Why Your Child May Not be as Happy as You Thought They Would be...

When schools first closed, there was a wave of excitement from my kids.  It was almost as if Spring Break came early and would last a little longer.  Then another week or two of school was cancelled.  Which was followed by our county distributing laptops and wifi hotspot devices for the students.  All of which still seemed really "cool".  Kennedy was up at the crack of dawn on FaceTime with her friends, my son playing video games with his friends and my oldest seemingly unb… Read more

This BTS x MCS Series will provide major tips that will definitely get you on the road to success.  I'm not … Read more

Feeling Grateful

At the beginning of this summer my family was headed to Atlanta to join my husband in a new job venture.  The goal was for me to stay behind with the children until the school year finished and then relocate at that time.  Well, turns out God had other plans for us!  My husband ended up returning home to his former job which offered him the same opportunity and promotion the gig in Atlanta gave.  The obvious upside was that the family did not have to move so we jumped on that offer i… Read more
