Travel Is No Cure for the Mind
At this very moment, you'll be here: Or you'll be here: Or here: But maximum possibly, you’re likely right here: It’s simply every other day… and you’re simply doing what you need to do.

It did happen.
It plays in my dreams and nightmares often. That one night, forever ago. It makes me feel so much guilt and shame, thinking and wishing that I could've and should've done more. What could I have done, though?

The Earlier Riser
The signs are there and impossible to ignore. It’s a creak in the floorboards, squeak of the bed frame, but mostly, the sound of feet padding from one room to the other. The sounds instantly awaken me, but I still do nothing to change it. I listen in the dark as my six-year-old wakes up in their bed and transfers themselves to mine. Then, I lift the covers back so my kid can crawl under them and pass out again.

Baby Sleep Miracle- How The Lack Of Sleep Affects A Baby’s Brain Personality
Baby Sleep Miracle- How The Lack Of Sleep Affects A Baby’s Brain Personality A leading researcher on temperament in infants and young children once said in despair, “When I raised my first child, I believed behavioral theories claiming that what I do as a parent molds my child’s character. With my second child, I was already a geneticist and believed that a child is born with characteristics that are passed on through heredity and that environmental influence is minimal. I barely knew my third child at all...”

A Time To Heal
Motherhood, for myself has been the only reason given in my life to become my most authentic self! This journey has caused me to search and seek reasons outside of self to grow into the woman that I am today. I will give a little background of Nena, for you to understand my journey. I was born Nena Valeria Smith around 5pm on May 4th, 1985, in Frankfurt, Germany. I was the first-born daughter to a woman that turned 18 the very next day and man that was 10 years her senior. This married couple knew very little about relationships because, unfortunately neither of them were able to witness a healthy marriage during their upbringing. Therefore, the only knowledge of relationships and what they were to be came from what they witnessed in movies or televisions shows. Hence the name Nena that came from a character in the populated soap opera The Young and The Restless. Valeria my middle name also comes from a movie that featured Arnold Schwarzenegger.

What I Got From My Parents
-- From the earliest years, as long as I can remember, I have known that my mother was a drug addict. I do not know exactly when in life I began to have a conscious relationship with it. It probably happened little by little; it was like looking at an onion being peeled, leaf by leaf, until I got to the bottom, to the core - and I saw that there was nothing there. Nothing but a core that was put together in the same way as the rest of the onion. Leaves on top of leaves.

Mother Knows Best
“I understand, I’ll be there right away.” I rushed to grab my purse and keys in the hallway and marched to my car right away. That day seemed like such a beautiful day; the sun was shining, barely any cloud coverage, a robin egg blue sky overhead and here I was driving as fast as legally allowed to go into a dreary dark nurse’s office to pick up my sick child. There was a lovely kiss of a breeze blowing by as I parked and walked up to the school doors. The delightful exterior landscaping feels like a trick or betrayal compared to the bite of ridiculously cold air conditioning as soon as I walked in the doors.
