By the time you read this, I am well on my way to Salt Lake City. Just for the day. KSL (channel 5) is doing their first-ever live event. This is the end of their two-week series on Studio 5 called Motherhood Matters.

I am honored that KSL invited me to join some amazing women so that we could discuss and celebrate motherhood. In front of like … a thousand people who will be there in-person. On live tv. Where all my mistakes will be shown. And a million trillion people will see my mistakes on tv.

Okay, so not a million trillion. But a lot. Oh — I’m not nervous. Not one bit.

Yeah, right.

Anyway, in addition to our gabbing about important stuff, we’ll be having a lot of fun! I’ll be sharing ideas for 5 things to save for your children/grandchildren. And I can’t wait to see what the other ladies have in store. I very much look forward to meeting authors Sheri Dew, Jane Clayson Johnson, Amanda Dickson, and DeAnne Flynn, as well as the KSL team.

And plus — plus! – guess who happens to be in SLC right now?? My parents! As in, the people I haven’t seen in a year! They just returned home to Maryland from their 2-year mission in Finland. We’re going to head to Maryland soon to spend time with them, but this will be such a fun teaser. And … I get to see several other friends + family who are in Utah and able to come. Super excited.

And … there come the butterflies again.
