Welcome to Just A Mom Trying! I am a mom of 4 kids. There’s a 6 year age gap between my 2 oldest and then they are close together after that. I am in a mix of life stages at the moment. I have a wonderful husband as well.

It stays pretty loud and lively at our house everyday. I love it! However, not gonna lie, I get overwhelmed just as much. I was a working mom until right before I had my second kid. Now I am a stay at home mom. I now spend my days handing out food, cleaning messes, and chasing after kids.

I started this blog for a few different reasons. I was looking for a way to earn a little income from home and surprisingly this is a little like free therapy. I also wanted to make a blog for moms (or any woman really) that seemed a little more down to earth and relatable to me.

I don’t have much of a support system. There’s a little but it’s complicated. I thought this would be a great way to connect with other moms that have been there and done that, or are in the thick of it with me. Even moms that are coming up into these seasons of life have a spot here too.

I have a few women in my life and I have read from several women on line about how they are struggling in the same boat as me. I wish that wasn’t the case because it’s not a great feeling. So, I did the one thing I could think of to fix this problem. I started this “Village”!

This is a place I wish to be inviting and helpful to all who need it.

I am authentic and I feel deeply for others, especially if you are struggling. I love to celebrate when others win as well. I hope you enjoy being here and thank you for joining us as we grow our village together!
