Parenting – Ariel Pierce

Evidence

Picture it. It’s Christmas Eve. Your children have been asleep for a reasonable amount of time for you to step in and begin to finalize the Christmas magic. You put the presents under the tree. You fill the stockings. You take a bite out of the cookies and drink all the milk left for “Santa.”Continue reading “Evidence”

30 Questions to Ask Your Partner, Part 3!

I cried on Thursday of this week (I’m writing this on Saturday). I realized on Thursday that I did not publish a blog the previous day. I decided at the first of the year that I would publish a blog every seven days. I’ve been trying to accomplish bucket list item number 54, “Write aContinue reading “30 Questions to Ask Your Partner, Part 3!”

Parenting Phrases

I have been thinking about the best way to organize this blog for a while now. I’ve written a few blogs related to parenting, but I think this will likely be my favorite. I am 100% an evidence based research girlie! I love speaking with facts and support behind my statements. If the United StatesContinue reading “Parenting Phrases”

Freely Given

I started to write this as a quick Facebook post, but I started writing more and more and believe it’s important to post through my blog. So, please enjoy! I’ve been telling our daughter that she should be drinking more water while at school because her water bottle has been coming home at the sameContinue reading “Freely Given”

Don’t Have Children

I recently read a journal entry from July of 2018 where I wrote that I’m a kick ass mother. I stared at it in shock. I didn’t know that I ever felt that way about motherhood. While living in Texas, “Don’t have children” came out of my mouth so many times. I advised all theContinue reading “Don’t Have Children”

ATTENTION, ATTENTION

I’m literally writing this because I want attention. I want people to read my words. I want people to validate me as a writer. I want people to tell me I’m talented. I want people to share with their friends and family to make me go viral. I’m begging for attention. Please pay attention toContinue reading “ATTENTION, ATTENTION”

Love Without Expectations

Let’s wrap this month up with LOVE blog number four of February 2025! I started the month off by discussing ways to celebrate your partner through the celebration of Valentine’s Day. Then I shared songs that show God’s love and in turn helps you work to love yourself. The third blog discussed ensuring people understandContinue reading “Love Without Expectations”

Commercialized Love

I’m singing in my head right now. I’m stoked about my plan for blogs in February of 2025. This is the first idea for a set of blog concepts I plan to publish in February. Every Friday I plan to publish a blog related to LOVE! How exciting, right? I refer to February as “theContinue reading “Commercialized Love”

Bedtime Stories, Part 2

I went looking through my notes app for a note I had written a while back and couldn’t find what I was looking for easily. I realized I had a backlog of bedtime stories Henry and I have created together. I enjoyed my first bedtime stories blog and felt like sharing some more with y’all.Continue reading “Bedtime Stories, Part 2”

Bedtime Stories

Storytelling is in my bones. My grandfather happened to be the king of telling compelling stories. Everything he shared held so much heart. He loved life and those who shared it with him. I tend to be one who sits and listens rather than share stories with words. My words linger in my brain untilContinue reading “Bedtime Stories”
