If I had to choose a metaphor for life I’d go with a white tee. Dressed up, dressed down, comfortable, casual, and cool: always ready for anything. My current full-time gig is staying home with my daughter Hadley but there is so much more to the job description; wife, friend, sister, high school golf coach, keeper of Belle Rat (our adopted poodle mix with an under-bite that won’t quit). I am the boss of schedules, master of multitasking, instigator of fun, and kisser of all that hurts. My Casual Mom is an outlet to share the things that inspire me, make me happy and move me to be better with each day. You can expect posts about Momming, Fashion and Travel but all in the most casual way. Like the perfect white T that is just waiting for a statement necklace, life is a blank slate ready for accessorizing. Thanks for joining me!
