Sleep is not always my best friend. Insomnia and I are much more likely to be hanging out at bedtime, so I am taking a minute to enjoy the Four Sigmatic Mushroom Cocoa mix. It smells soooooo yummy and feels like a hug from grandma. (No, seriously, it does.) Made with reishi mushrooms, I get…

You move slowly now, and jumping is harder. You aren’t that interested in knocking Christmas ornaments off the tree anymore, and you are picky about what you will eat. You are vocal about what you want and are patient and loving to your kids. You notice when our schedule shifts and we aren’t where you…
