From Author to Advocate, and Now… Lafayette Mom Contributor
Thank you all for following along on this incredible journey of authorship, public speaking, and advocacy. Your support means everything.
If you’ve been keeping up, you know I’ve had the privilege of participating in several meaningful opportunities—sharing my story, my voice, and my heart with broader audiences.
One recent passion has been joining the Lafayette Mom team as a contributing writer. It’s been a beautiful experience to connect with readers through stories rooted in motherhood, reflection, and everyday life.
If you’ve missed any of my blog posts so far, it’s not too late to check them out:
🟣 More Than a Smile + A Wave: Honoring the People Who Keep Our Schools Running
🟣 Stronger Together: Why Mom Connections Matter (And How You Can Form Them)
🟣 Worth the Drive: Cypremort Point Beach Day Trip
Each post has been a heartfelt glimpse into my world as a mom—and I’m so thankful to everyone who has read, shared, commented, or simply taken the time to listen.
💫 A Special Highlight
I also want to take a moment to highlight one of my most personal recent pieces:
➡️ The Struggle of Barely Missing the Kindergarten Cut-Off Date
In it, I open up about the emotional tug-of-war I’ve felt as my youngest child—bright, joyful, and kindergarten-ready in so many ways—was told she had to wait another year simply because of her birthday.
It’s a story about growth, patience, and embracing the journey at our children’s pace. And clearly, it resonated—because it was recently named Lafayette Mom’s Number 2 post for the month of May. 🥹🎉
To all the parents who’ve faced this same dilemma: you are not alone. I hope this piece speaks to your heart as much as it came from mine.
