I’m a bad mom. Like legitimately terrible at this motherhood thing and like maybe to outside people I’m not but I am. I lose my cool ALL of the time. I want to yell when I’m not being obeyed. I be tempted to “pop her legs” or say “Imma spank yo butt” like 75 timesContinue reading ““Umm, so yeah.” A single mom’s truth”

Hurt People, Hurt People
My grandma popped my baby. That’s it, that’s the story. My grandmother popped my baby & I LOST! MY! SHIT! I couldn’t see past my triggers and I lost it! The helpless and scared kid in me jumped out and was front and center to defend my child; cause if I say “don’t hit myContinue reading “Hurt People, Hurt People”
If Yo Girl Only Knew
I wish I knew that: 1: Every day will not be sunshine & rainbows. In fact, you might outright hate motherhood and that’s okay! 2: There is no smooth transition from woman to mom. And it sucks. 3: Self-care is no longer easy. 4: This is your journey and yours alone. YOU are the mother.Continue reading “If Yo Girl Only Knew”
Hide Me Mommy
Warning: this will be kind of long. I’m not apologizing. It is 5 am, I’ve had no sleep, and I’ve decided that sharing Bean with the public IS actually anxiety inducing and not something I’m 100% comfortable with.

Miss Bean showed her little black buttContinue reading “Fast & Frustrated 9”
Truth Time
My priorities are screwed. I’d rather spend time playing sims, scrolling instagram, and typing captions and blog posts in my notes app rather than posting them. Why? I feel unqualified to be a “mom blogger”. I feel like I’m too “new” to motherhood to have the audacity to sit and document our experiences; but 500Continue reading “Truth Time”
Baby, you Blue me away
I think I’ve got a case of the Baby Blues. I love my daughter. I love being her mom. I even like doing it “alone” if I’m being truly honest. But I think I’ve got those good ‘ol Baby Blues. I feel like Eeyore if he sat in the sun all day; kinda happy, mostlyContinue reading “Baby, you Blue me away”

TW: death. If you are sensitive to the topic of death please proceed with caution. There are no mentions of gory or graphic details. Can I be wildly honest? My biggest fear is dying.
