I'm Amy (Amanda): a wife, mother of four, and Louisiana native stuck living in the middle of Mississippi with my heart in the bayou and my head in the mountains. I crochet and play a ukulele, as well as homeschool. I love autumn and collect Eiffel Towers.
I started this blog in 2005, shortly after meeting my then-boyfriend/now-husband, Zac. All the cool kids were blogging, so I hopped on board. This blog has become a sort of therapeutic outlet for me as I navigate through motherhood and life, as well as the grief of losing two pregnancies, a sister, and my dad within a five-year span.

Zac (Zachary) is my nerdy best friend and other half. He's everything I never knew I always wanted. We met in June 2004 through a mutual friend. I kept him in the friend-zone for a few months before he charmed me over and I fell head-over-heels in love with him. We started dating in August 2004 and have been practically inseparable (much to the disgust of our peers) ever since.
He's the Jack to my Sally. We're simply meant to be.

Together, Zac and I have four children: James, Leah, Elias, and Nicolas; plus two babies we lost to miscarriages (2013 and 2018). They've taught me patience, self-restraint, and unconditional love for another person while simultaneously questioning my sanity. I'm probably biased, but they're by far the most awesome little humans I've ever met.
We have a dog, Toby (Toblerone), and two cats, May (Milky Way) and AJ (Almond Joy).
