I am not a stranger to heartbreak. I have, admittedly, made some very poor decisions in my life – from choosing the wrong friends to trust, losing a home, loving a boy who i’m pretty sure was evil personified. But I have to say, nothing compares to a newborn’s very…

A few nights ago, I had a mini-breakdown during bedtime. As my husband, Niki, and I prepared for bed, I tearfully confessed that I felt my Motherhood Knowledge was so inadequate, and despite my voracious reading of all kinds of parenting articles I was still ill-equipped. I asked Niki why…

Now that i’m no longer teaching pole classes, i’ve had a lot more time to think about this rapidly growing baby in my belly, as well as my long-time plan of starting a business. The dream was always about having control of my own time, allowing me to earn from…

We were told that we would have a difficult time. Losses were mentioned, too. I cried for about two days. After a lot of praying, Niki and I decided to NOT not try. Since we may have a hard time conceiving anyway, might as well get a head start. I…

I love the sun. I love the wind, the outdoors, the elements of city life. That was confirmed today, as I cleaned and tidied up and cooked meals and washed dishes. I need to be outside, often and with other people. Oh don’t get me wrong, I am loving this…
Hello,
I’m Kris
Wife to an amazing man and mother to two crazy kids I would burn the whole world down for. I love to write, and so I write. I also love to draw, but I’m not very good at it. I do real estate and own a business. It’s a lot. And it’s a mess, sorry I didn’t have time to fix up. Come in, but watch your step! There’s probably some spilled snacks on the floor. And some Legos. But that’s okay, the couch is cozy and the coffee is hot. Let’s make chika!
