​once upon
a time

i pushed
a little big soul
out of my body

my life
forever changed
in birthing
my baby
i birthed myself

and here
we are today
i've got a
sweet + strong
tween
on my hands
whose spirit
is thankfully
much the same
as the day
i birthed him
in my bathroom
nearly a decade ago

and thus begins
our holiday season
actually it starts
with halloween
and ends
with new years

one big joyous holiday
after another
like today
celebrating
phoenix's 10th bday
with family + friends
{picture above}

it's an expensive 
juggling game
of all our fav things
that i simultaneously
absolutely
love + adore
while also
every year leaves
my questioning
how is it all
going to happen

how am i going
to love the moments
creating simple
FUN + MAGIC
this season
without 
all the madness

how to instill
the values of:

* giving is receiving
* homemade gifts
* quiet introspection
* time in winter nature
* genuine holiness
* the spirit of peace
on earth + goodwill to all

amidst the crazy consumer
madness + pressure of the
holiday season

    Mama Megan

    Hi friends,  I write from the heart to tell my life story, and the story of those in my neighborhood called life. Research shows that our children's emotional & mental health is contingent upon us parents being able to tell our life story, or "coherent narrative."  This is my coherent narrative, my life story in the making, with some of what I love in life too. My goal is to share my life in a way that is real, uplifting & positive- sometimes serious, sometimes fun. In my practice, I inspire parents to empowerment through reclaiming our life stories and learning respectful discipline. My work is my offering to our children- our future. Wishing you all a happy family!
