Hello and happy Wednesday to all of you! Today is an exciting day for Momma: My SITS day!
What is SITS, you say? It's a place for bloggers to find support, resources, and new skills, as well as grow their audience, all while supporting fellow writers. And it's 40,000 members strong. Follow this link to learn more.
A big welcome to all of you visiting from SITS. And to all of you who are regular readers. And to all of you who stumbled upon this page randomly and were really trying to get somewhere else.

A little bit about me: I'm a Navy wife, married for almost ten years, and a stay-at-home Momma to three Secret Agents, ages 6.5, 4.5, and 2. A few weeks before my oldest was due to begin Kindergarten, I had this crazy idea to homeschool instead. I drink coffee every morning. I eat too much chocolate. I get more excited about trips to Disney than my kids. (Side note: I hit "publish" on this post from inside a Disney resort.)
I encourage you to poke around and read some past posts. (Although that early stuff is . . . yikes. Tell me I'm not the only blogger who'd like to virtually shred her beginning days?) Anyway, in the sidebar you'll find some popular posts around here, as well as a list of topics I write about most. I also contribute to Connected Mom, and all of the posts I've shared there can be found under the tab at the top. Please, kick back and stay a while.
Thanks for reading and have a blessed day.
p.s. Stop by and visit me on Facebook, too.

Happy SITS Day, Valerie! Lovely family. :)
ReplyDeleteA trip to Disney and your SITS Day all in one week? That's what I call a Banner Week!
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS Day once again! Poking around for a bit... Enjoy Disney! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS day Valerie :)
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS day! What cute secret agents!
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS Day! Secret agents are precious, BTW! (Jealous you are at Disney, I am a Disney Vacation Club owner I love that place so much!)
ReplyDeleteWe are DVC members, too. Honestly, I don't know what took us so long!
DeleteAdorable kids! Have an amazing SITS Day! :) Enjoy your time at Disney.
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS Day and huge congrats Valerie!! Very happy to be here and get to know you better and following you now, too!! :)
ReplyDeleteYou have a beautiful blog and I LOVE LOVE LOVE purple! Great choice for your blog. I think you're doing a great job for a mom in progress. At least moms now have Pinterest and blogs like yours and the Internet to help. We had not instruction manuals like these when I was bringing up my kids over 30 years ago. Oh, the stories I could tell! Horror, I tell you, horrors! But, they survived and now I have grandchildren. I must have done something right. Congratulations on being featured blogger. Happy SITS day. Have a blessed day!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Vicki. Purple is Agent E's favorite color. She was my inspiration. :-)
DeleteHi Valerie!
ReplyDeleteYea! So excited to find another Disney lover! I too get more excited than my kids and I have also discovered Run Disney! As a runner this makes it even more magical!
Cant wait to explore your blog!
Happy SITS Day!
Enjoy your sits day, your family is so beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your SITS Day! As a mom of three myself, I understand how busy your life can be!
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS Day! We're thinking of homeschooling, too, as part of a co-op but we're still not sure and have time to figure it out. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Valerie,
ReplyDeleteReally enjoying reading your Blog. Congrats on the SITS Day! I love coffee too, but have had to cut back as it was making me a little too hyper (after 20 years of drinking it LOL) - good luck with the Blog and have a fab day!

Happy SITS day! I hope you enjoy it. My early posts are non my favorite either! LOL
ReplyDeleteHappy Day to you! Yes..my early blog stuff is so cringe-worthy. I sounded really immature! It was only three years ago but at least if I cringe at it, that means I've grown, right? Right.
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS Day! Is it possible to eat too much chocolate...? :)

ReplyDeleteContinue to blog & enjoy your family & Disney!
