Hey there! I’m Mikala—a wife, mother of 5, family doctor, well-being advocate, and the author of Ordinary on Purpose. Each month, my writing reaches millions of women, but I am thrilled to be connecting with YOU. I’m truly grateful to have you here!

Because even as everything changes, there is one thing that will never change…I will ALWAYS be his mom!
I’m pretty sure all those earlier parenting challenges were preparing me for today. These days of parenting a teenager. EVERYTHING feels multiplied!!
I never imagined anything could fill my heart like chubby little cheeks and diapered little bottoms and drooly little smiles and teeny little feet covered in footed pajamas.
For I know one day very soon, my teenager will be gone. And my baby will walk through the door a grown man. Still the love of my life. What a gift! I never knew this kind of LOVE existed.
I'm pretty sure no mom ever had Teenager Fever...But I have bigger kids now. One is officially a teenager and one is a hot-on-his-heels tween.
That's the ultimate goal, right? To do our very best and love them like crazy and just enjoy these fleeting Kid Years as best we can???
