I used to be in the tradwife space on Instagram, but now I am working on short videos about my life as a Catholic with a creative calling. (I am seeking the best platform for what I make). On one hand I hate doing it because the truth is, I don't love being on camera, … Continue reading I Wouldn’t Monetize Being a Trad Wife

Life
After dropping A off at school and driving down the street, I got a phone call. I answered it and a cute little voice said, "Mom, I forgot my project at home in the living room. Can you bring it for me? I'm sorry." Since it is her first time forgetting anything this year, and … Continue reading Life
Instagram, Studio Life
I reinstated my writing Instagram, but not my trad account. I missed my small community on the writing account. And a record of the last decade of my life. I've been on it a lot less though. So the other night my husband took me by surprise. I can't remember exactly what we were talking … Continue reading Instagram, Studio Life
Jesus Paid It All
I went to Mass on Tuesday, and I showed up early for Confession so that I could take Communion. Well, I had just confessed my sins and been given my penance, and I went to a seat in the sanctuary, and opened my phone. Somehow, I ended up opening youtube even though I didn't mean … Continue reading Jesus Paid It All
Religious Life – a New Order
I've written before about how I long for an organization or order of lay Catholics who are creatives. I feel a tug at my heart to build a website and start something. I've been longing for some form of religious life that allows for the integration of poetry, art, composing, choreography, etc to God's honor … Continue reading Religious Life – a New Order

It felt good to get my purple Bible journaling bag out and use my scented highlighters and all my other gorgeous supplies. I want to do more Bible journaling … Continue reading Bible Journaling, Giant Cookie, Catechism
My Journey to Catholicism
Although we have already confirmed, Father C has asked my little OCIA class to come to the first day of the new class and talk about our journeys to Catholicism. Although I just took OCIA this past year, I debated and considered Catholicism for years. Coming from a Protestant background, I felt deeply uncomfortable with … Continue reading My Journey to Catholicism
Happy Mother’s Day!
I woke up to a fresh baked lasagna made by C. It was scrumptious. Then I opened my presents. They got me a new set of rainbow lights for my wall! I had been wanting those for so long since my last set broke. They gave me a little raccoon, a candle, some art suppplies, … Continue reading Happy Mother’s Day!
Taco Bell
Today I went to my daughter A's school for lunch to surprise her. I brought Taco Bell. She was so happy! I had anxiety getting there, and anxiety waiting to see her because the cafeteria was so loud. But I stuck it out and I made it. I'm so glad I did. She's in class … Continue reading Taco Bell
Tonight!
Tonight my first Instax Mini 99 is coming! I'm so excited! I also found an expired package of film to use in my Instax Mini 12 that I'm excited to shoot today. You never know how expired film will turn out. It's black and white film. So I don't know if I'll get as many … Continue reading Tonight!
