About Me

I am a former early childhood teacher, now stay at home mom living in Northeast Wisconsin. I have 3 children and my oldest is autistic, currently non-speaking with an AAC device. I share my experiences trying to stay sane and organized with systems that feed off our experience in our home and share them on social media and blog posts to help you create your own systems. I like to do parties, DIY home projects, share mom hacks, tips, organization ideas, favorite items/products we love, and more. Follow along for the good the bad and the ugly as we create a community of people doing their best to raise the zoo we created ourselves.
