The more I hear about this massive earthquake that is going to hit the PNW the more freaked out I get. I’ve literally made myself sick because I am so worried. I won’t even leave Emerson to go to the bathroom. I am not prepared. We are not prepared. I am terrified to leave him. … More Nope…

If you’ve never experienced it, I must not really like you (just kidding…kind of). Today I was not very kind. I knew saying something would … More Be careful with your words..

Like 3ft tall, climbing on all the furniture, laughing at his own silliness, telling me what he likes/doesn’t like, you know big kid stuff! It’s … More Hot! Hot!! Heat!!!
