My little Cassie is not so little anymore... I can’t believe that this picture was taken over 7 years ago at the Menil... So much has happened and changed since this picture was taken but one thing that remains the same is that it’s always been the two of us against the world... We’ve literally grown up together and even though she’s about to be a teenager and I know the bumps in the road are coming, I know that we’ve worked together to create an amazing foundation that’s going to help us build an even better relationship as mother and daughter while we navigate through life together ❤️👩‍👧 #cass #myfavoritedaughter #myfirstborn #themenil #sittingprettyonaswing #motherdaughtermemories #tbt #circa2010 #growinguptogether #formerteenmom #family #stayathomemom #momthoughts #sugarandspice #girlsinpurple💜 #girlsindresses (at Newport, Crosby, Texas)

..I decided I will write as if I have an audience of a thousand people waiting anxiously to read what I have to say. My audience is waiting for me, therefore I must give the people what they are waiting for.

Someone is always watching even when their presence goes unnoticed.

Y me moment: remember likes and shares does not validate your worth. Often times people wait and see where you are going before they make the decision to follow.

Welcome!

I’m Raé, a working mom of 3 (sometimes) wonderful children. Their ages are 21 (yikes!), 13 and 6 months (what was I thinking?). I began this journey as a teen mom and as one would expect (and hope), I’ve come a long way in these past 21 years. Now that I am rapidly approaching 40, I’ve begun to reflect on how my parenting styles have changed and how much I’ve changed over the years. I hope to share my stories of having an adult child, coparenting my teenager and having an infant later in life. So I hope you stick around and enjoy yourselves!
