    ARC Review: The forest of Vanishing Stars

    ARC Review: The forest of Vanishing Stars

    Houston Strong

    Houston Strong

    I know you've seen what's going on in south Texas. I know you've seen the devastation. I know you've seen your Facebook feed inundated with posts from friends seeking refuge for themselves or family members. It's incredibly heartbreaking, and for someone living outside of it while hoping and praying for friends and family who are in the thick of the suffering, I feel insanely helpless and useless through it all. I grew up in Sugar Land, which is a suburb southwest of Houston,
    When your postpartum reality isn't sunshine and rainbows

    When your postpartum reality isn't sunshine and rainbows

    Photo via L. Bishop Photography Full transparency: I've tried to write this post for a week now. I still don't feel like I've truly laid out my feelings on this subject, but I'm going to try, because honestly, I'm tired of seeing this post sitting in my queue. I don't mean to toot my own horn here, but I was a pretty pleasant pregnant woman. My husband and former students would agree.

    Five YA books to add to your reading list

    marble tray // coaster // pitcher // coffee mug If I'm being honest, I used to avoid young adult (YA) books at all costs. I am a 28-year-old professional woman!

Now that I have a baby who demands my attention throughout the day, I definitely want comfort to be at the center of my fashion decisions. So, I found the perfect transition top - whether you're transitioning from work to drinks, work to date night, or work to play date time, and the best news is, it's on sale for less than $30, and it comes in tons of colors and sizes.

    Introducing Case James Culotta

    If you're friends with me on Facebook, you may have seen my post a few months ago that detailed my sweet son's birth story. If you read that, this may be redundant for you, but I still want to share this here since I took a break from blogging during my pregnancy and the first few month's of Case's life. Case was not my first pregnancy. My first pregnancy came two months prior—on Mother's Day 2016. It was the absolute greatest joy I ever experienced. Learning you are pregnant
