There’s the part when the littles refuse to eat dinner and ask for a snack before bed. Then there’s the part where the not so littles eat their dinner (and some), then request a second dinner before bed. #CostcoMembershipEngaged

Thanks for sharing, Melissa!

Signs I’m entering my late 30s: takes photo of bug on beloved dahlia plant, tries to identify said bug, no luck so goes straight to FB Dahlia Growers group to identify. “Ooh it’s an assassin bug. It eats bad bugs!”

Free toddler activity: a trip to the farm supply store.

Asian parents don’t say “sorry”. They say “come and eat.” #IYKYK

I sneezed so hard a muscle twisted in my rib cage.

I’m not on here much anymore. But here are my parents being cute and making the most of retirement. Celebrating 38 years of marriage.

I’ve lived in Western Washington most of my life. I will never get used to Juneuary.

Things I’m not allowed to throw away. Pt.1 “Arm blasters” #parenting

Frustrating things about being a part of the sandwich generation with *young kids*: having to solo parent frequently and unpredictably. It is easier for my husband to help his father make decisions in person, but in person means driving 18 hours round trip. #caregivingawareness

PSA: you can be tired and grateful at the same time. #motherhood

Most days I forget to eat breakfast. Not today, though! 🤩

“You can never have enough of what you don’t need to make you happy” — I heard some version of this over the weekend And I can’t get it out of my head “What’s enough?” is a question explored often in this circle And I don’t know but I’m just thinking out loud here… One reason that “enough” never seems to happen for some of us Is because we are trying to fill that space with things we don’t need

Mood.

So the sun is disappearing. Some people call that an eclipse. In Washington, we call that November to April.

6 & my husband are spending the week at Legoland. It is v.quiet at home with just a 2.5 y/o. (I know that might sound crazy to some!)

When some yells STOP! Do you:

Sometimes I think about leaving twitter (because let’s be honest - it can be a dumpster fire sometimes.) But y’all really know how to cheer a girl up and I am so thankful for you all. 🤗

Our little Luna love has a brain tumor. Cancer sucks. There is never enough time. So we’ll spoil her and love on her.

Girls weekend in your 30’s hits differently.
