Oh Hey There!

Hey, I’m Monica!
I’m a mom of two — a son and a daughter — who are three and a half years apart. Aside from my full-time job as “Mom,” I’m also a wife, a corporate employee, and just a girl trying to find a little space on the calendar for the group chat to actually get together.

So here we are — Bottles to Backpacks — a safe space I created for myself and anyone else navigating the twists, turns, challenges, and joys that come with all the different roles we play. My hope is that this space brings a little normalcy and a lot of comfort to your everyday life.

I won’t pretend to have all the answers (because honestly, who does?), but I’ll share what’s worked for me — and what’s failed miserably.

All hands to the center — let’s go!
