Dear kids,
One thing I love is making pizza as a family. It's pretty much a weekly thing at this point--and I just think it's one of my favorite traditions we have together.
It's the homemade dough that you each love to steal so you can make your own stuff...it's the sauce you love to dip your fingers in...it's the cheese you try to sneak by the handful, only to leave a trail of it as you run out of the room. It's the smell of baking red peppers and bacon and olives and sausage...and hearing you each say YUM over and over.
I love it. Each part. Each piece...
Love, mom

Why I write...
After feeling overwhelmed with the pressures of motherhood and life in general, I have decided that this is the year I will find more joy in my special calling as a mother.
It is time for me to stop regretting things I have or have not done as a mother...and it's time for me to start embracing the many JOYFUL moments I know I am presented with daily...
This journal is for me...for my kids...as a place to document that joy I find each day and I hope this will help me see more clearly, and more often, what an important challenge I have taken on....and how rewarding it can truly be...especially on the really hard days.
