Evacuating Savannah We haven’t had a family vacation in a long time. Other than visiting family, we haven’t been on a family vacation in almost three years. So is the life of a military family it seems. But with the impending threat of Hurricane Irma last week, and the fact that we live east of […]

Intuition
It’s Not Just a Woman’s Intuition When I talk about my intuition, I’m not talking about my ability to necessarily read people, though I think I’m a pretty good judge of character. It goes a lot deeper. I don’t want to say I’m psychic because I can’t predict…but I do get very strong feelings about […]
Faith, Family, Fitness, Fun
Faith, Family, Fitness, Fun… Faith, Family, Fitness, Fun…These are the words I use promoting my business and page, but why? Recently we had some pretty major revelations in our family and it’s going to change how I approach my audience. But I think the change is a positive one. When you look at my social […]
I Didn’t Get The Birth I Wanted…
I Didn’t Get The Birth I Wanted… I didn’t get the birth I wanted…at least not the first time around. Childbirth is an extremely personal experience, and I’m not sure you can fully prepare for it even with birth classes and reading tons of books and articles. Even though we weren’t using birth control, finding […]
Memories, Forgiveness, and Healing
Memories, Forgiveness, and Healing…My Memories Memories, forgiveness, and healing: the words that come to mind as I sit down to write this. I tend to be very nostalgic: remembering days of old, “the good times”. It brings me a lot of joy to “remember”. But this is a very hard piece for me to […]
The Story of Baby Uriah
Uriah is our third child. We have Jacqueline who is 7, Joseph who is 4. And then there is Uriah…He was born June 16, 2015. We never imagined we would have a third. I really didn’t want ANY more children after the traumatic birth experience I had with Jacqueline (Jac for short). Just a month […]
The Truth…Do you want to hear it, or are you looking for another excuse?
Hey, All. It’s been a while since I last wrote a post. I’ve been really busy between finishing up my nutrition certification, taking care of my kids and husband (when he’s home on the weekends), and traveling. Oh, and then there’s that pregnancy thing. Of course I’m feeling a bit more tired these days, and […]
Bittersweet: A Real Life Birth Story
How Can This Be Bittersweet? The birth of a child should really be one of the happiest days of your life, but the day my daughter was born was one of the saddest. She was ripped from my body while I was under general anesthesia and hours later was transferred to a hospital an hour […]
“Hold me! Hold me!”
My name is Kelley, and I am a stay-at-home mom of two sweet children. One of whom is pulling at my leg as I type this screaming, “Hold me! Hold me!” I’m new to fitness. Well, kind of new. I never was what anyone would call athletic. I was a band dork in high school. […]
