My kids and I drove to San Diego from Phoenix last weekend for a family event. As any parent knows, it’s important to have water, snacks, games and extras of EVERYTHING in the car when travelling with kids. (Ever been caught without a diaper or baby wipes? Yea, been there. Done that. Won’t do it again.) Little did I realize how important those extras would be. I pulled into San Diego just in time for the large power outage (caused by human error in Arizona, no less). I knew something was amiss when I got off the freeway around 3:30 p.m.  Read more >

The homework routine has definitely changed in the Reese home this year. For the past few years, my kids have spent two to nearly three hours after school at their campus' after-hours program.  Read more >

With the start of the school year, my big kids (9 and 6) also add a few activities to the calendar. And I’m guessing I’m not alone. The kids have been in once-a-week gymnastics class since 2009. So that doesn’t change. Daily summer swim team is being replaced with karate once a week for the next few weeks. My son wants to continue weekly chess after school, but my daughter has decided to give that up.  Read more >

Work part-time

“You look so much more relaxed,” my friend said to me after a cup of coffee last week. I didn’t think of it that way, but she’s right. After working full time with three kids for 10 months, I got the opportunity to make a (much needed) change. I thought about giving up my job, but I love to write. When I fall asleep at night, I’m often writing stories or blogs in my head. It’s not uncommon for me to arise, turn on the computer and pound out a few paragraphs. It’s what I’ve done for nearly 20 years as a journalist and an avid fan of words.  Read more >

About Me: 

A working momma of three who smiles at the joy life brings everywhere, from the faces of my family to the home to my work. I'll even laugh at the Cherrios all over the floor, the clean laundry not put away and the sock fights that happen when we're putting away laundry. Only, can someone help me find my keys?
