Like a much-needed chat after a long day, pull up a chair for uplifting stories ranging from relatable hot messes to finding faith and joy in every day life. Cheers!

All The Info
Hey there, hey! Life can be crazy, so I'm so happy you are choosing to spend some time in this little corner of the world. I hope you find this to be an uplifting place where you can relate, laugh, feel inspired, and most of all enjoy yourself - because life should be fun, amirite?
My name is Lindsay and I am a freelance writer, illustrator, educator, Army Veteran's wife, and mama of three littles (four if you ask our yellow lab,) I am a voracious reader, reluctant runner, nature lover, and shower singer, usually to very questionable music choices that surely do not include Broadway show tunes.
I have a Bachelor's Degree in Journalism from the University of Tennessee and a Master's Degree in Elementary Education from Columbia College Chicago. I taught first, second, and third grade over the course of 8 years and loved (juuussst about) every minute until I made the super tough decision to leave my beloved classroom so I could spend more time with my own kiddos and offset astronomical daycare costs. I love sharing real stories about all things parenting because we are all in this together.
To get my teaching fix, I substitute teach and tutor grades K-8 and mentor high school girls to educate and empower them about mental health and self-esteem.
But that’s enough about me. Get comfy, pour yourself a cup of tea (or glass of wine) and go exploring. I hope you enjoy reading about my shenanigans as much as I did experiencing them!
