Hello! Introductions are in order.
I’m Janessa! I’m a lot of things, including a mom, partner, and menno pastor. I tend to post a lot of sweet kiddo anecdotes, faith reflections, and general life commentary. I like to think I’m a bit funny, pleasantly hopeful, and honest.
Nice to meet you!

What I’ll say at the end of this day though: the gift my boys gave me today was knowing deeply how much they love me and find me comforting. 🧡
Before kids, my November birthday was pretty chill. After kids it is walk in clinics and fevers to manage. Love them forever and happily do it, but oof.
Oh and by the way I’m 39 today.

I’m sorry, but the walk in clinic is playing NSYNC’s bye bye bye and Toto’s Africa back to back and I’m not sure how they expect us all to not sing and therefore share all the viruses in this room. Irresponsible tbh.

I’m like, really sad for me but honestly maybe even more sad for Eugene Levy. I don’t want him to be sad ever.

Can I just say that baseball would be infinitely more enjoyable if i could just now see anyone’s mouths. The chewing and spitting is so nasty.
But of COURSE… GO JAYS!

I’m sorry but if I didn’t already love the Bluejays, I’d be fully obsessed with them for the sole reason they have a Captain Kirk.

Me: sports superstitions are ridiculous.
Also me: well, they won both times I wore my 1992 World Series sweater (original owner of that was my dad, it’s the real deal) and at the kitchen table painting so… I’m never watching anywhere else with any other sweater.
