Origins of Halloween

Every year, on October 31st, comes the holiday of Halloween. Some may celebrate it, while others don’t. Some may go all out and decorate their homes, while others will treat it like any other day. Growing up, I think I looked forward to the costumes than I did trick or treating. And now, as an adult and a parent, I definitely enjoy decorating for Halloween. I don’t go all out because it’s not a major holiday for us, but I do like to carve pumpkins and hand out candy. When I had my old site, I always had holiday pages up and one section was dedicated especially to the history and legends of Halloween. I want to bring a bit of that back and talk…

Welcome to Alphabet Sensory Activities, hosted by The Jenny Evolution along with their partner site The Sensory Spectrum! 26 amazing bloggers have gotten together to share a sensory experience based on a letter of the alphabet every day this month. As one of the participating bloggers, I chose the letter F and we’re doing a fun farm sensory bin. Squeaker enjoys learning about farm animals, so I thought it would be fitting to do a sensory bin for her. Easy Sensory Bin Ideas (for non crafty moms) We haven’t done as many sensory bins as I would like, but when we do them it makes it extra special for Squeaker. One of the biggest problems that I run into is finding a filler material. Previously, I had used green…

A Much Needed Dose of Serenity

Happy Friday, my friends! This week’s freebie Friday offering comes along with a personal story. While it’s not absolutely necessary for the freebie, I think it would help explain why I chose this particular quote for this week’s freebie. As you may or may not know, I’m going through a divorce. While my ex husband and I have been legally separated for two years, we still need to finalize the divorce. It’s really just a matter of formality and legal fees at this point. And in the meanwhile, we’re co-parenting Sweet B. She’s with me during the week and with him during the weekend, and for the most part, it’s been peaceful. Until this past Monday. Let me set the scene: I was upstairs, in…

The Illusion of Multitasking

On any given weekday morning, especially during the school year or summer when Sweet B has extended school year, I was multitasking. Squeaker was usually up before her sister, so that means having to juggle the toddler while I’m trying to get Sweet B’s breakfast ready. Just yesterday, in fact, Squeaker was feeling particularly clingy. Usually, I would just pop her into her baby carrier and be on my way, but by that point I just wanted to get some things done. I was also supposed to attend a webinar and I had a printable to work on, threads to finish up… you get the picture. So instead of grabbing the trusty Ergo, I balanced her on my hip and went about my way. Multitasking…

How To Make Money Blogging

It’s been awhile since I’ve posted about blogging. I had started my baby steps to blogging series with no real intent of how often to update it or what topics to cover. However, recently I was thinking of potential topics that I would have wanted to learn about earlier on in my blogging days. And since I’ve passed my one year blogiversary with this blog, I wanted to start up again with the series. This may or may not be posted weekly, depending on time and motivation. We’ll see what we see! For now, I want to kick this back off with a topic that many bloggers wonder about and that’s how to make money blogging. Now, I’ve said it before: if one of your…
