Welcome to A Mom’s Reality!
I’m Amber Jo, a mom navigating the wild journey of life with my two babies—a 3-year-old daughter and a 1.5-year-old son—as well as my bonus baby, an 11-year-old son. I’ve been happily married to my husband, affectionately known as Tootsie, for four wonderful years. As the oldest of five kids, I guess you could say I’m used to a bustling household!
Both my husband and I work full-time, and yes, we’re balancing it all with our young ones at home—call us crazy! We’re incredibly fortunate to have a fantastic family and support system that helps us through the daily grind.
Our family is always on the go, juggling sports for the kids and loving every minute of outdoor and indoor adventures together. We cherish time with family and seize any chance to celebrate.
But let’s be real—it’s not all cupcakes and sprinkles. We experience highs, lows, and everything in between, just like you. We’re here to show you that life isn’t always what it seems on social media. It’s real, it’s messy, and while there’s plenty of joy, every mountain has its valleys.
So come along on our journey! Let’s support each other, lift each other up when we’re down, and cheer for one another’s victories.
This is motherhood, and we can’t do it alone!
XO,
A Realistic Mom
