Mid-year check-in, babe.
Not “What have you done?”
But “How are you, really?” 💛 Not your highlight reel. Not your to-do list. Just real talk, wine in hand, and a little heart check.

Summer motherhood isn’t all sunshine and sparkles. From meltdowns to magical moments, this honest post dives into the emotional rollercoaster of raising kids during the hottest, most chaotic months of the year.

Discover the beauty in messy, imperfect, and heartwarming family nights. From s’mores and screen time struggles to epic game night drama and cozy movie moments, this honest peek into summer evenings reminds us that love lives in the chaos.

This summer, I’m not playing cruise director. I’m embracing the beauty of boredom—and watching my kids turn sticks into magic wands and the backyard into outer space. 🌿🚀 Why? Because creativity needs quiet. Imagination thrives when there’s nothing scheduled. And let’s be honest… mama needs a break too. ✌️💁‍♀️

Not every kid gets a trophy—and that’s okay. After a whirlwind quarter teaching first grade, I saw firsthand how powerful it can be when kids learn the value of earning their rewards. While it's tough to see tears when one child gets praised over another, it’s even tougher to raise kids who expect rewards without effort. Real life doesn’t hand out trophies for showing up—and sometimes, the best lesson we can teach is how to work hard, lose gracefully, and keep going.

If you’re currently: ✅ Serving 56 snacks a day ✅ Hiding in the pantry for alone time ✅ Wondering how it’s only Wednesday... Then this one’s for *you*, mama. It’s a humorous, honest look at parenting through summer break — with tips, laughs, and plenty of wine 🍷.

Nothing says summer like cocktails and unfiltered conversations with your ride-or-die mom crew. From belly laughs to real talk, these are the moments that refill our cups—literally and emotionally. Grab a glass, gather your girls, and toast to surviving motherhood one sip at a time.

A slower, more spontaneous season for the calendar-loving mama learning to let go. This summer, I’m trading color-coded schedules for pajama days, backyard chaos, and ice cream for dinner. We’re swapping perfection for presence—and letting magic sneak in through the messy moments. Here’s to doing summer real, not perfect.

Mom guilt is real, but perfection isn't. Embrace the chaos, let go of unrealistic expectations, and focus on what truly matters.

Teaching boys to express emotions builds emotional intelligence, helping them thrive in relationships, stress management, and life. #Parenti
