11 Questions That Carol Asked Me

1. What is your ‘why’ for blogging?

I started blogging simply to encourage and to help other moms. When I became a mom back in 2016, I was in for a surprise  with how tough being a mom was. Experienced a minor case of PPD and recovery felt like it took forever. It wasn’t until my first born turn 10 months old that I finally felt like I got the hang of things. Now I have two beautiful girls and love being a stay at home mom. I want to encourage and help other moms be the best mom they can be!

2. What has been your most successful blog post to date?

My most successful blog post so far is How To Organize Your Clothes (Tops). It’s the very first post on the series for organizing your entire home.  

3. Where is your favorite place that you have ever traveled to?

I’ve traveled to over 30 countries and hands down my favorite place that I have ever traveled to was Fiji. I think Fiji is the closest thing to paradise on earth. It is absolutely beautiful! 

4. What is your favorite dessert?

Anything chocolate I like I think lol. I also love green tea flavored desserts too. I’ll have to say dessert crepe with green tea ice cream and chocolate chips! 

5. Describe your perfect date.

Beautiful night to do some star gazing by a bonfire while cuddling up in blankets with my husband. Sounds amazing! There must be food too 😉

6. What is one fitness goal you wish to accomplish in your lifetime?

Hmm… This may sound bad, but to simply have a time slot where I actually exercise is my goal right now. Maybe yoga or a dance class?

7. What is your morning routine?

6:30 AM I wake up to nurse my baby, get baby ready for the day, do devotions, and go wake and get toddler ready for the day. Since my baby is young I don’t have a lot of me time in the morning. Maybe soon I can wake up to doing my devotions while sipping on a warm beverage 😉

8. If money and time were not an issue, what dream would you make a reality?

Going to Japan every single year and staying there for a month! Japan is where I grew up and that’s home to me. I want my daughters to love Japan and be proud of their heritage. 

9. What is your favorite outfit you own?

A simple t-shirt, cozy sweater, skinny jeans, and heels. I don’t get to wear them often, but love it when I get to!

10. Do you have any bad habits that you have broken or that need breaking?

I need to break the habit of not flossing every night…

11. What is your favorite thing to do with your family?

Going to the park with my family. I love just getting the stroller out and going walking with everyone! 🙂
