Welcome to Making MOM-ORIES

Hello Moms!

I’m Danielle Mosser, and I am the proud mom of two sons.  M-1 is 14 years old, and M-2 is 11 years old.  I can’t believe how quickly they’re turning into young men, and I’m confident that they’ll go on to accomplish great things.

The Struggle is Real…

Early into my motherhood journey, I learned that balancing work, house, kids, and other responsibilities is so much tougher than I ever imagined it would be.  

That said, I truly believe that nothing in life is more important to our children than the time we spend with them.  Time, unfortunately, is also the one thing that most of us moms never seem to have enough of. 

The Story Begins…

I believe that making lasting memories with children re-assures busy moms that their kids will always feel a sense of happiness, nostalgia, and connection to them even when being seen with their mom is no longer “cool.”

Feeling constantly overwhelmed with mom-guilt, I realized that not all memories made have to include extravagant adventures of epic proportions (although we do include these from time to time). 

Some of our most cherished family memories are as simple as cooking dinner over a campfire in our backyard or sampling hot chocolate from 5 local coffee shops on a chilly Saturday morning.

Taking the time and seeing life again through the eyes of my two sons has been an incredibly grounding experience – one that I hope other moms can share with their families.

Welcome to Making MOM-ORIES!

Making MOM-ORIES was created as a means of empowering fellow mothers to shed the mom-guilt through taking time and creating memories with loved ones in a more organic way – without the pressure to out-do your last adventure.

Making MOM-ORIES will provide a platform for sharing ideas and learning about fun kid-friendly activities and tools for making lasting memories with your family.

It will build a sense of community, re-assuring busy moms that small memories are just as important as the big ones in the eyes of our child(ren).

It will encourage the calming of the chaos, and using creativity when making memories.

My family and I love to travel, make (and eat) great food, and find “out of the box” ways to find adventure in everything.

I look forward to sharing our family adventures with you in hopes that you’ll find some inspiration when planning family activities. I can’t wait to also learn about the fun memories you’ve made with your families.
