About Me

About Me | RE: All Things Mom

Hello! I am so happy you have stopped by, and not just because I’m thrilled to have one person reading this parenting blog, but because I hope you can find some real content that can truly help you in this stage of life! I am a stay-at-home, home-schooling mother of four children, with four side-hustles, and, often, too many volunteer gigs.

So, whether you're here for encouragement, validation, approval, or just some new momming methods, there's a place for you!

I'm Wendy. If you're looking for perfection, keep it moving. If you're here for honesty, you'll find it!
