I would truly love to hear from you! What is your biggest struggle as a mom? What advice or information would you benefit from the most? I want this to serve as a solid, valuable resource for you. In order for that to happen though, I need to know how your children challenge you and what problem-solving opportunities they present you with regularly! Please feel free to contact me!

When I was a new stay-at-home mom, my life was falling apart! My marriage was falling apart and I had a child who screamed day and night. We had also just moved to a new town and I had zero friends. I didn’t know anyone and having a child who screamed all the time didn’t exactly allow me to become a socialite!

So, you can imagine how it thrilled me when someone from our church invited me to a sort-of “Mom group.” The discussion leader asked questions like, “Does anyone have any issues they would like to discuss this week?” And all of the moms would say, “No!” Week after week, not a single issue!

Was I the only loser mom in the group? I felt like I was drowning with no idea what to do with this strong-willed, crabby child of mine!

I never want any mom to feel that way. Looking back, I know I wasn’t the only loser in the group. I was just the only honest one in the group! There is not a mom on this earth who doesn’t have issues!

So, please, let me know what issues you face. Maybe I can help! Or maybe another mom can help. There are no dumb questions and no issues that aren’t worth mentioning. You can let me know in the comments, or you can contact me via e-mail here:

reallthingsmom@gmail.com

I read every comment and every e-mail and they are like found gold in my inbox! So send me some treasure!

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!
