Jami
Proud to be raised in Burleson (shout out Kelly Clarkson), Jami was even the Elk mascot for her beloved Burleson High School. Jami's greatest pleasure comes from exploring the world and learning about all the beautifully unique people in it, so she started a business in the summer of 2021 taking groups of women around the world! Her business,
Women Exploring the World has already taken women to experience Christmas markets in Bruges, Brussels; Paris, and London. They've also taken women to Costa Rica, Italy, Tanzania/Zanzibar, Scotland, and to Norway to see the Northern lights. Jami's greatest gift is her family, Corban, her beloved hubby; Jessy (born 2011); Maggy (born 2013); Lilly (born 2015); and Jude (born 2018). Besides running her travel business, Jami spends her days having adventures with her kids, homeschooling them part-time, assistant coaching PE, attempting to keep her brother and sister labradors out of trouble, keeping her son from killing their cat, and supporting her husband at his Edward Jones office downtown Fort Worth. Jami is a woman secure in God's love for her. He is her first love.
The Man I Met Selling His Children’s Toys
I don't know what his life situation is that he is trying to sell all these items on the side of the road. I don't know if he had to pry these toys from his children's hands and walk out the door as they cried. I don't know if he's selling his only can of shaving cream so he can buy food. I don't know if he has any support or help to make it through whatever crisis he may be experiencing.
When the Daily Kid Grind Annoys You
My one year old dropped raisins all over the floor. I hate cleaning the floor and I kept walking past these raisins and thinking how much I didn't want to clean them up.
Are Lash Extensions Worth It?
I love having my lash extensions because I feel so much more feminine and put together with them on. BUT eyelash beauty comes with a high price (and I'm not just talking $$).
Working in a Restaurant Made Me a Better Mom
Restaurant work has helped me be able to handle intense days. No matter how crazy my days are with my kids, it doesn't compare to the immediate pressure I felt working on a busy night in a restaurant.
10 Thankfulness Activities for Kids
Challenge your child to think of anyone they could share something with who may have less in some way than them. Maybe they can help an older neighbor bag a bag of leaves, or pick out some new toys to buy for Cook Children's Hospital, make some food or a card for a friend who has been sick or make a bag of goodies to hand someone who is experiencing homelessness.
You Won’t Embarrass Me
I am committed to letting my kids know that they can NOT and will NOT embarrass me. They will suck at some things. They will make mistakes. They will do stuff that I find reckless or stupid. But I will always be proud to be on their team.
My Grandparents’ Legacies
When I think of my grandparents' lives, I'm amazed at all their resilience, toughness, and lack of bitterness. I also see how easy I have had it and how blessed I am to learn from them and be loved by them.
