No one ever told me motherhood was so lonely. Like, really, really lonely. But the crazy part is that I’m never alone.

I've had to get used the weather in California. Yes, I just said that. Growing up in Idaho, we had #allthseasons; snow filled Winters, crisp, bright Springs, sunny Summers, and cozy Autmns. Here?

She's completely right and the evidence lives right between my eyes in a nice, getting deeper by the day, wrinkle. I have a worried face. How can you not? I mean, the world is … Continue reading #momXiety
