Let Me Intro Myself a Little....

So...where do I begin? Well, I have been blogging for about 4 years now...ever since I became a mom. I've always loved writing but took about 6 years to travel the world as a fashion model which limited my writing to random emails I'd force on anyone who dared read them....my end of season monologues as my friend, Jeremy, liked to call them.

After I had my son I decided to explore this thing called the blogosphere and became hooked. I started writing on smaller social blogsites which is where my original mom turned model blog was born and then about 2 years ago I decided to start chronicling my adventures as a fashion model living abroad. That one is still a work in progress and can be found at:

I still work as a fashion model part-time while I take care of my preschooler and toddler full-time. My experiences as a mother often leave me mindboggled, elated, exhausted, embarrassed, and content. There are days I can't get enough of my kids and others where I want to hop on the first plane out of the States so I can take a breather and a vow of silence. Every night I go to bed with a dozen new gray hairs on my head and a mind spinning with all the events of the day...so this is where Model Mom Diaries comes into play....this will be my confessional, my sounding board...call it what you will. I am gonna tell it like it is when it comes to being a mom and what it's like to juggle a career that requires me to be fabulous when mostly I just want to curl up in bed and sleep for another month.

I'm gonna start off by posting some of my older stories from my other site that is now defunct...stories that I think will help ease you into getting to know me.....so check in often and enjoy the caffeinated ride that is my life!

Bisous!
