Introduction

Hi, welcome to my lifestyle blog!

My name is Caycia (Kay-see-ah). I am a mom to three, and I am engaged to my high school sweetheart, Jordan, who I’ve been with for almost 9 years now. At the age of 17 I found myself pregnant and at 18 years old (Jordan was 19) we welcomed our first son. I was thrown into motherhood just as I reached adulthood, so I’ve had a pretty different life than many young adults, but I wouldn’t change a thing! 

This will be a lifestyle blog, so I will share a few different things here. I will be sharing about motherhood, personal thoughts, and some advice that I’ve learned over the last 8 years. I will also be sharing my journey parenting a neurodivergent child, and life as a young mother. 

In my blog I will include recipes that my family and I enjoy- especially great recipes that are easier to make because as a mom with three kids that are still young I don’t always have a couple of hours to put into making dinner right now. My recipe blog posts will be straight to the point because if you’re like me you don’t really enjoy scrolling and scrolling to find the recipe when you need it, and chances are you won’t really care to read how I found the recipe. Some other types of posts I’ll be sharing are reviews. Personally when I want to buy things that I consider bigger purchases I like to look at reviews first to know as much about the product as possible, so I thought maybe others would like to see honest reviews they can trust as well.

As someone that struggles with mental health I will be open about that here, I think it’s important to be honest about in order to break the stigmas surrounding mental illnesses. If you’ve been following me on Instagram or know me personally then you already know that I have always struggled with social anxiety

Getting to know the person behind the blog:

I am a very silly and playful person, but many people don’t see that side of me because of the social anxiety. Instead they see a very shy person who doesn’t talk much (hahaha). I have known some people for years who still don’t know this side of me, and even if they do it sometimes takes awhile for me to break out of my shell again. I am weird and I definitely hold back that side of myself in front of many people because I don’t want to be judged. On one hand I don’t care what others think, but on the other hand the social anxiety makes me care too much- it’s exhausting and I hope one day that will change

I am currently a stay at home mom, but I’ve worked part time for most of the last 9 years. I graduated college when I was 22, which is one of my biggest accomplishments because I was staying at home caring for my kids during the day, doing my schooling at night, and then I’d go to work on the weekends. I barely slept that year and 5 hour energy drinks were a large part of my diet, but I accomplished it, graduated with honours, and I proved to myself and others that I could do it!

My main goal in life is to raise happy and healthy kids who become happy and healthy adults that are genuinely kind people. That along with having a great marriage with my significant other and us accomplishing our goals in life together.

Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoy my blog!
