Motherhood is time to get creative.
Being a mom really draws out the creativity in me that felt so stifled during my first pregnancy. As I’m stepping into being a mom of two, I’m slowly finding new interests and projects that spark joy in me.

WHAT IS IMPORTANT TO ME
Quality time
Dinner time will always be the most important meal as it is a place for conversations and sharing. The dinner table will always be a place for us to share thoughts liberally and safely.
Staying curious
I am always trying to improve our lives by organizing our space effectively, finding new (fun) home projects and learning about different techniques to manage my toddler’s emotions.
Being honest
Whilst there were many beautiful moments during my pregnancy, most of the time I was uncomfortable and felt that pregnancy and parenthood were scary.

hi! i’m jocelyn.
I’m a mom of two, wife, salsa-dancer, fridge magnet collector, and avid tinker-er.
I have always loved learning new things and creating. During the early days of motherhood, I found myself getting lost and not balancing my new role as a mother and the old “Jocelyn” well, so I started this blog as a way to hold myself accountable to still taking care of myself.
