Hello!

The Scoop

So glad you stopped by!  This blog is a place where I will keep thoughts, ideas, printable's, and all of the other random goodness that comes from being a wife, and mother to 3 {very energetic!} little boys!

I will also be posting resources and information about depression, anxiety, and OCD.  Hopefully my experience with these illnesses can be of benefit to others out there.  For more info, go to the page called "Find Your Happy!"

Why?

Glad you asked!  The news has recently been full of stories about individuals who commit crimes that are attributed at least in part, to mental illness.  However, it is still to often misunderstood and is rarely discussed.  The stigma that accompanies these type of illnesses is, in my opinion, causing unnecessary suffering for those who battle them and the families and loved ones who care for them.

It is imperative that we separate the disease from the person it afflicts.  So here I am.  Talking about the scary stuff.  But at least we're talking right?
