I’m Sophia! Exhausted Parent, NICU Mom, Sleep-deprived One, Queen of Messes, Protector of her Home, and Mother of Twins. Former archaeologist-in-training, tour guide, travel lover, and total nerd. 

I started this blog partially as a coping mechanism (come commiserate with me!), and as a chronicle to hopefully help any parents and caretakers who are also on this wild and wonderful ride known as raising children. 

Before my twins were born, you could find me scouring over some ancient Egyptian inscriptions, knee-deep in an excavation, face inches away from scattered pottery sherds or later giving tours around the DC area. Today, I’m a happy (albeit totally exhausted) work-from-home writer and twin mama already filling her baby’s minds with the wonder of magic, love, and dragons.
