“I love you guys more than space!” My daughter likes to leave messages for us and she knows I love space and just learned about the solar system at school so made her note space themed. Being a parent is hard, but it’s also beautiful and rewarding and amazing!

We went from 85 degrees in October to 50 degrees for about a week to snow. Welcome to the Midwest. 😂

So, are you all finally on board with getting rid of both parties and starting fresh?! I think it’s LONG past time to say goodbye to democrats and republicans. Neither side is serving the people and (quite frankly) haven’t been for a LONG time.

I am just a small town Ohio girl who has never even stepped foot in NYC, but tonight, I am SUPER PROUD. So thankful I get to live in a timeline where Zohran Mamdani is mayor of NYC. Planning a trip there ASAP.

Get out there and vote today! Local elections are SO important because this is what impacts your day-to-day life the most! Using your vote is the way you can make true, meaningful change in your community through the people you elect for city council, school board, etc. #vote

We have become the safe house among my kid’s friends. They can come here to hang out or talk about their problems and get some advice (if that is what they are looking for). I am so honored that I get to be their trusted adult and will NEVER take that for granted. We have to show up for these kids.

Small Act of Resistance: consider starting a food drive with your friends/neighbors to donate to the food banks. And/or start a little free pantry in your neighborhood that everyone can help stock. And/or donate money to local food banks as they can get more bang for their buck! #snap #community

We had the best time last night at the PFLAG Members Meeting at El Meson! If you are a part of the LGBTQ+ community or love someone who is, you should really consider joining your local PFLAG chapter! The work we are doing is truly inspiring!

This is the first year that my best friend has been on our ofrenda, and to be honest, it hurts a little every time I look at it, but I love being able to honor him. 💛
