BECOMING MILA'S MAMA

Before I was Mila's mama, I was simply "Emily."

Born and raised in Southern California, the oldest sister of four daughters, dedicated wife, college graduate, and wanderlust traveler constantly seeking some form of an adventure. A year ago, that's just about all I could say if someone asked me to tell them about myself. Today, life looks very different. 

​

After meeting my German husband in my last year of college, we had a long-distance relationship for nearly three years before I made the move to Germany in 2018. We had no idea that life would lead us there together. We never imagined that in the summer of 2019, exactly one week after bringing home a new puppy, we would read one word on a stick that would change our lives forever: PREGNANT.

And there it is. The not so climactic story that led me to life as Mila's Mama. It's fairly ordinary, but it's more than I could have ever dreamed of. It's a life that makes me want to bring you along for the ride through all the trials and tribulations of motherhood. I hope you find something here that's worth staying for.
