Woes of a Naptime Blogger

Byinspirethemom April 23, 2018April 24, 2021

I’m a nap-time blogger, which means I cram as much work into my power hour as I possibly can, and when the first rosy-cheeked, disheveled-haired kid walks into the room I close my laptop for the day.

Saying Goodbye to the Baby Phase

Byinspirethemom February 12, 2018July 29, 2021

Just this past week, our baby has gone potty all by herself. Granted, she’s using a plastic imitation from Target (because she is way too short for the original john), but hey, we are one step closer to no diapers. A dream come true…

What Parenting Has Done to My Definition of an Entertaining Evening

Byinspirethemom January 22, 2018April 28, 2021

I sat on the pillows that were laying on the floor and watched Mr. Coppertop as he assembled our new bed frame. Our older two were in the living room while our youngest roamed the house searching for anything that looked remotely interesting.

The Best Christmas Gift I Ever Received

Byinspirethemom December 4, 2017

Before the days of children. Back when we were trying but to no avail. I worked at a local music store where I taught voice and piano. A small town place with rough, hardwood floors, records hanging on the walls, and a  constant smell of coffee floating in the air.

The Real Hunt for Home (Guest Post Shared on Kindred Mom)

Byinspirethemom November 29, 2017April 28, 2021

We are in the market for a house. It sounds fun, but it’s not. Three simple requirements: livable, within the budget, and in a safe neighborhood. You’d think I was asking for the moon.

The Case of the Missing Perspective

Byinspirethemom November 13, 2017September 24, 2021

I recently started to notice strange behavior in my husband. Nothing major, just little things out of the ordinary that have made me raise my left brow and run a gamut of hypotheses.

One Resilient Mother

Byinspirethemom October 30, 2017August 12, 2021

My sister-in-law gave me an old, novel for my birthday. (The year 1911 to be exact and a copy from the first print!) Most ordinary girls would probably turn a nose (quite literally) at this musty gift, but it made my nerdy heart swell with joy. I’m trying to take my time and savor each…

Teaching Good Manners in an Afternoon

Byinspirethemom October 23, 2017November 9, 2017

While rinsing off the lunch dishes, Jovie said, “Today, my teacher kept asking me to use the magic word…” (long pause) “…Hey Mom, what is the magic word?”

What’s so Wrong With Having Heroes?

Byinspirethemom August 28, 2017July 5, 2018

I’m officially one step closer to working myself out of laundry duties…my four-year-old has learned how to fold towels! And not just the one-two-you’re-through method, but the mom’s-amazing-wrinkle-free-four-step-fold. 😉

When Motherhood Asks you to Leave Your Peaceful Perch

Byinspirethemom July 31, 2017October 20, 2020

I sat down on the reclining patio chair to supervise my barefooted cherubs in the backyard. I made a mental note that the sun was very hot and I hoped the garter snakes stay away till we go inside.
