Welcome to the Mess

Motherhood isn’t filtered and neither is this blog. Crumbs on the floor, chaos in the air, and stories that stick to you.

Harper and the Purple Lipstick

Back in 2004, before I had enough children to accidentally form my own small school district, there was just Jacob. My Boo Bah. For a few precious years he had me almost entirely to himself. No siblings interrupting us, no one screaming from another room, no tiny person demanding a snack twelve seconds after refusing that exact same snack.

Just me and Jacob.
