Hi! I'm mj.
mom
topknot enthusiast
confidence booster
president of the self love club
I have three kids who make me feel crazy and insanely grateful at the same time. Aren’t kids magical in that way? My husband is everyone’s favorite person at a wedding, after the bride and groom (in most cases). I am a classic over thinker and recovering perfectionist. Some would call me “extra”, and I take that as a compliment. I just consider it keeping things interesting.
I love Jesus, coffee, memes, and the entire Bachelor franchise. And I won’t eat pizza without ranch.
I started this blog as a creative outlet + way to document our life so my kids have something to look back on when they grow up. And I guess if other people want to come along for the journey, the more the merrier. Hopefully it brings a little joy to your day.
