I’ve always considered myself to be an idea person. That is the main reason why I chose the name Resourceful Mommy, and why I have enjoyed working in various settings as a consultant. But truly, women everywhere have learned to be resourceful over the years as they’ve run their lives, run their families, run fortune…

Intense emotion. Detail. I remember the day my world turned upside down, never again to right itself. I was 13. It was the summer before ninth…

This is Anissa. If you’re meeting her for the first time here, then you are most likely not a mom blogger. If you have not yet met her in person, then you are missing a special moment in your life and I pray that God allows more moments with Anissa for all of us… Let…
