Introduction to Cassie!

My name is Cassie. I am married to my husband Matthew, and I am a stay-at-home mom to our three-month-old baby girl. I have always known I wanted to be a mom, and it is both challenging and rewarding, just as I expected. I’m living my dream!

Matthew and I moved to Oregon a year ago after spending our first year of marriage in New Mexico. Prior to that, I grew up in Wisconsin and then graduated from Hillsdale College in Michigan with a degree in Rhetoric and Public Address. I have long enjoyed communicating through writing, and I am so excited to use my writing skills to share about growing through motherhood!

I may be new to motherhood, but I have already learned so much! Though at times difficult, I thoroughly enjoyed pregnancy and even loved giving birth. I am now learning to love the everyday, mundane parts of motherhood, challenges and all. I hope to encourage others to do the same and provide practical tips that I collect along the way.

I strive always to be learning, and I am especially interested in natural health topics. In the future, I would like to learn to bake with sourdough and grow my own foods. I enjoy walking, Pilates, tennis, and visiting farmers’ markets. Most of all, I enjoy snuggling my baby and spending time with Matthew.
