My 15 Favorite Travel Experiences in Ireland

Posted on March 18, 2015 by This Wild of Mine • 22 Comments

In honor of St. Paddy’s Day, I thought that I would share my favorite Ireland experiences with you. The Ireland I love is mossy single-lane roads, small pubs where the whole town comes out for the live music, overgrown roofless castles, and soda bread with every meal. I keep going back to Ireland, because every time … Continue reading →

Hello!

I'm Becca, an expert adventuress and amateur mama to three young boys. I love to share the humor and beauty in being a mama on the move. Thanks for stopping by and sharing in our adventures.

Dear Mama, Your days are full of taking care of the needs of little people that make themselves more pressing than yours. I see you running from one emergency to the next—the baby just spilled milk all over the couch, you forgot that you were supposed to bring snack to preschool which begins in 5 minutes, and after breaking up the 25th fight between the boys that day, it’s time for bedtime routine. Did you even drink water today? ... Don’t forget to put your own life preserver on first, mama. Make sure you are practicing self love so you can feel good about and be healthy for yourself and all the people in your life who rely on you. You are their number one. You need to be your number one too. Don’t forget to prioritize doing the things that make you feel good about being YOU. ... Read, take a break, make lists, get therapy, meditate, work out, take more baths, schedule a girls’ night, start every day with positive affirmations (you are strong, you are lovely, you are unique), cultivate the things that make you YOU. So that you are wholly prepared to take on all experiences this crazy beautiful life has to offer. ... Love you guys. ♥️ xxx Becca ... P.S.—For a completely nourishing bath experience that makes you feel fab in your skin, I highly recommend @rawsugarliving Bath Fizzers and Foaming Bubble Bath. The ColdPress, detoxifying ingredients are just so good. And what makes me feel even better is that for every product that you buy, Raw Sugar donates a fresh bar of soap to a family in need. Just look for the Bamboo Tops & White Bottles at your local @Target. #rawsugarpartner
You are three! 🎂 I can’t believe that it has been 3 years since you saved my life with your birth 11 weeks early. It’s been 3 years since the first time I held you weighing less than the blankets you were wrapped in. 3 years since I watched the machines breathe for you when you should have been snuggled safely in my belly. 3 years since we first heard of the damage you sustained in utero and I didn’t dare hope to take you home. It’s been 3 years of therapies, doctors visits, procedures, and miracles. And 3 years of belly laughs, bright-eyed smiles, snuggles, and bear hugs. You have broken my heart wide open and healed it again. You have shown me what true joy, determination of spirit, and zest for life look like. Happy birthday to my sweet miracle! I hope this is your best year yet. ♥️ . . . . #zanevonstrong #29weeker#makeportraits#preemiestrong #fightlikeapreemie#littlefierceones#writeyouonmyheart#babyspam#letthembelittle#nicumom#nicugrad#motherhoodrising#hellpsurvivor #preeclampsia#honestmotherhood#postthepeople
Hope you’re having an ice day! 🙂
Yesterday Zane had testing at the Early Learning Center to help determine whether he will need to be placed into a special education preschool (they want him to go to preschool you guys! 😭😭😭 #imnotready). In the picture-word association portion of the test, Zane surpassed double what any child had correctly identified before. The therapists were astonished. And then I told them his story and there was not a dry eye in the room. I have no words for how humbled I feel to be his mom. He is highly intelligent. He is empathetic. And he is kind. And he is having a third birthday this week! 😭😍🎉 #29weeker #miraclebaby #zanevonstrong #hellpsurvivor #preemie
We do not remember days. We only remember moments. ♥️ >>>> I’m revisiting my favorite moments from 2018 and thinking of the moments I want to experience in 2019. With a 7-month separation from my husband and a solo move on the agenda this year, I know I will be stretched in ways I cannot imagine. So I’m trying to plan some experiences to look forward to and self-building goals to strengthen me. What are you hoping to experience this year?
If you love spending 3/4 of the day putting gear on “just right,” unstrapping 50x to hike uphill to save a screaming tiny person from snow, getting all sweaty chasing rogue poles/mittens/skis down the mountain, spending so much time trying to get all the kids and gear into the gondola that it leaves without you (true story), and spending more time drinking hot cocoa than skiing, I highly recommend skiing with kids. 😜#worthit (Peep my stories for some cuteness from this weekend!) 🎿♥️ Have you braved skiing with your kids? I want to hear your cutest skiing moments! 😍
