First, thank you for visiting my blog and wanting to get to know me a little better. 🙂
I am an Atlanta-based blogger, author, business owner, first generation Liberian-American, “Chiro-wife”, & mother of 2 amazing little girls. I started blogging back in 2009 with the money saving/deal blog {now known as} Saver in the City. I became the go-to person for money-saving and money-making tips for moms, I released my first 2 e-books with the goal of helping other moms find ways to enjoy life one a budget. Then, in 2012, I started Love, Peace, & Tiny Feet, which started out as my personal outlet to find ways to truly find peace and balance in all of the ideals, the ordeals and the real deal of life and parenthood. All of my journeys – from my adventures in parenting, to my attempts at leading a natural and holistic lifestyle, to my opinions and understanding of my responsibilities and place in this world – are chronicled here.
I’ve been seen on the Dr. Oz Show and featured in Vinings Lifestyle Magazine and you can also find some of my stories on The Huffington Post, She Knows Experts Among Us and TODAY Parenting.
A little bit of personal history…
One of my favorite things to say (ok, to myself) is “Kiss the Frog.” This is also in my old email address and people always ask me where in the world did I come up with that and what does it mean? Well, really, up until now only a few people know where I came up with the idea.
See, I was an awkward little girl. I was horribly bow-legged, poorly coordinated and I could never sit still. I wore the huge hideous corrective shoes during the day and braces on my legs at night. As if that didn’t have enough of an effect on my self esteem, my cousins came up with a lovely nickname for me—Frog Legs! (West African Families can be so cruel!) That nickname haunted me for so many years until what I call my second wave of adulthood, when I learned to truly embrace it…among other really critical experiences that both negatively and positively affect who I am today. See: My Civil War Story
I heard someone say once that childhood is what you spend the rest of your life trying to get over…and isn’t that the truth!
The birth of my oldest daughter (my first set of tiny feet) became my revelation. Throughout the years, I’ve seen so 
much of my former perfectionist self in her and each day, as I heal her of that burden, I am healing myself as well. Together, we find love and peace in imperfection…
The birth of my youngest daughter was my rebirth. When I started this blog, I chronicled the emotional journey brought about by what I called “the introduction of baby #2” This until we both fought for our lives to bring her into this world and her strength became mine. The ideals, the ordeals, the real deal…
So now that I’ve given you the mushy stuff… My only goal is to take it all one day at a time as I continue on my never ending quest for love and peace (without perfection) in my home, my mind, and maybe someday, the world . I’ll be sharing this journey through motherhood, life, and love and peace in this blog and hopefully, other imperfect frogs out there will find it useful.
Enjoy!
