Family Vacations
I thought I’d turn the blog over to Kelley again because I was fascinated by our last conversation- she was telling me all about her latest family vacation and it occurred to me that maybe you’re never too old to vacation together as a family. This gave me some hope to know if I establish [...]
Is Motherhood my Calling?
I have finally decided to come clean about something- I love babies and I cannot wait to be a mommy!! My husband Patrick thinks its really endearing how much I want to start a family. I think we were dating three months before we talked about our future children’s names (they’ve changed a few times [...]
Graco & The Ellen Show-An Expectant Mom’s Best Friend!

Graco’s Monthly Nods – April
I love reading through all the nod posts when they are “submitted” to me by all of our contributors. I’ve often discovered new blogs this way and there are some great ones this month. A couple left me in tears, some made me laugh but they always remind me about the privilege of parenting. Our [...]

In the spirit of Mother’s Day later this month, Graco wanted to ask a simple question – What are the top ten reasons why you love being a mom? I took a stab at it here and I’m glad I took a quick 5 minutes out of my day to capture how I feel about [...]
