You have found a place to feel understood
Do you find yourself feeling alone in a house full of chaos and crazy? Is overwhelmed and understatement? You love your family more than anything but need to be more than just “mom”?
It doesn’t matter if your kids are 5 months or 50 years old, if you have 1 kid or 12, if you work full time or stay at home, this is a place for every mom to feel supported and understood.
Meet April
Mom to four amazing blessings that drive me crazy daily!
Hello friends! Welcome to the exhausted moms club! I’m a stay at home mom to a 16, 14, 9, and 3 year old. Exhausted is my existence and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. However, I do want to be more. Both for myself and for my kids. I lost my Mom in 2007 and that has left an empty space in my heart. As time goes by the space has seemed to grow and it has impacted my life. She was my best friend for so long and I miss her so deeply. While I want her here for myself its not having her here for my kids that hits me the hardest. I have a beyond AMAZING Dad that has been my rock for forever. He is ALWAYS a call away and does his very best to offer love and support the way she would have. I also have a husband that does his very best to put up with me lol. Joking aside, he is always there when I need him and I know how hard he wants to keep our family happy. A few things to know about me….I cuss too much, I have struggled with anxiety since childhood but it is generally well controlled, I’m a master at getting stains out, love music, suffer from chronic pain which you’ll find out more about, I believe in something greater and that there are no coincidences in life, and I will always put my family first.

Values
Authenticity
I think that in the day and age of social media that it’s important to not paint a picture of everything being all roses and sunshine. This world is crazy, life is tough, and most normal people are struggling with many aspects of life.
Integrity
I will allow you into my daily thoughts and feelings without sugar coating things. I hope to make others realize that they aren’t alone in the journey of motherhood. I long for a place where women can support each other and feel like they can be themselves.
Kindness
This is a place of caring and kindness. I am raising my children to know that it is ok to have different opinions and views from others but that should never be a reason to judge or dislike someone. treat others the way you hope to be treated. Always stand up for yourself and what you believe in but do it respectfully.
