Family

Family life around here is a beautiful mix of chaos, caregiving, and cat hair—and I wouldn’t have it any other way. In this corner of the blog, I’m sharing stories and tips from our real-life journey as a multigenerational, foster-adoptive, grandparenting crew. You’ll find honest advice on caregiving for aging parents, including dignity-saving products and routines that actually work, plus sweet (and sometimes hilarious) stories about my grandgirls Emmy and Skye.

I’ve also got a special spot for fellow foster and adoptive families, with encouragement and ideas from someone who’s been there. Oh—and let’s not forget the Happy Pets, because our cats and dogs are definitely part of the family, too. Whether you're knee-deep in caregiving or just trying to juggle all the generations under one roof, I hope you find support, smiles, and a little solidarity here!
