Hey y'all! I am a Springboro kid, who has traveled the globe, and came right back to the area to settle down. I am a mama of four, wifey to my high school sweetheart. I am a lover of all things antique~flea market~vintage. I often overindulge on chocolate, Amazon and personal home renovation projects. In another life, I was a fifth grade teacher, and now I run a small business while maintaining the stay-at-home mama gig. I wouldn't trade this crazy ride for anything!

Our Job Is Never Done

I have four kids. 10, 9, 4, and 1… we cover a whole lot of ground. I have been through daycares, dentists, kindergarten firsts and lasts, school bus bullies, and the existence of the...

The Cost of Clutter
