Our Journey | Birth to Three
On March 13th, 2019, our son was officially enrolled in the Birth to Three Program, after nearly 6 months of trying and advocating, and we began the second part of our journey… Hi there, my name is Tresa and I am the mom blogger behind The Mom Blog WI and the Our Journey Series! Our Journey to the identification of educational autism (so far) officially began on March 13th, 2019, but we struggled for months before that to be seen by a professional who would take our concerns seriously. Our son Jackson is very sensory-seeking and struggles with sensory processing issues and obsessions, and he’s also severely sensory-sensitive to the…

Writing for Me
I have been feeling very unmotivated lately. Uninspired, lacking creativity and spunk. I’ve been questioning myself and my purpose a lot lately, the direction I’m going in and my mission. Every idea I’ve come up with, I’ve dismissed completely because I am overthinking everything. I’ve been experiencing some serious writer’s block, but I’ve also been avoiding every single thing I know to do to break through that writer’s block. I know that if I have writer’s block, I should still write. I know that if I just start writing, something tangible will form. I know that if I keep avoiding it and succumbing to feeling uninspired and unmotivated, I will…

New & Improved; The Mom Blog WI
Hi there, everyone! Notice something a little different? *Wink, Wink* *Nudge, Nudge* It has been a long, looooong two months since I have created some new content and let me tell you, I have missed this! I have been sick, for I kid you not, two entire months. Two months! Back in January, I started with a sinus infection that just would not quit! It. Was. AWFUL! I eventually ended up with a sinus infection and started a round of antibiotics at the end of February, which did nothing! Absolutely nothing. So I muscled through every single day, every single week, waiting for it to get…

From The Archives | My Biggest Parenting Success
From The Archives | The Mom Blog WI My Biggest Parenting SuccessPreviously Published June 22nd, 2018 I recently read some blog posts about topics for mom and parenting blogs to write about. I was working on mapping out some ideas and doing some brainstorming for future blog posts. A lot of them said the usual stuff; write about your proudest day as a parent, your biggest parenting success and of course, your biggest parenting failure. “What is your biggest parenting success?” Needing a starting point, I compiled a list of topics I wouldn’t mind writing about at some point. And would you believe that in my…

Crazy, Busy Life…
Crazy, Busy Life… It’s been a crazy, busy week… So I completely failed last week. I only made one lame blog post, which didn’t see very much traffic. I also haven’t been very active on Twitter, which means my engagement is at an all time low and my blog traffic has also greatly suffered due to just one week on inactivity. I didn’t get any other blog posts out and this weekend was such a mess, I didn’t get anything new prepared for this week. Last weekend I was sick, and I just got so far behind. I wasn’t able to do any blog planning and I spent…
