Back At It

March 7, 2019March 7, 2019 Tracey

Hey there lovely readers! Long time, no see! The Traveling Circus has been getting settled into our new home here in Beijing.  It has been quite the adjustment. The language barrier is more like the great divide. Finding familiar foods is difficult even with a small grocery store nearby that caters to expats. And the… Continue reading Back At It

Taking care of my selfie

May 29, 2018 Tracey

I hope that everyone had a calm and enjoyable long weekend. We decided to a little staycation which I will detail in a future post.  It was actually just what we needed.  We had planned to travel to Philadelphia, but I am so glad we decided to postpone that. I have about a million things… Continue reading Taking care of my selfie

The Story of a Birthday

May 19, 2018May 18, 2018 Tracey

This week, our daughter celebrated her 12th birthday.  Now, we have always done birthdays big in our house.  There has rarely been a year when the kids didn't have a huge party to celebrate their day.  They get to choose the meals or where we go to dinner on their birthday.  Some years, they have… Continue reading The Story of a Birthday

Just like riding a bike

May 3, 2018 Tracey

I am constantly in awe of how resilient my kids are. The life of a Foreign Service trailing family is not for everyone. We are never in one place for very long.  Just long enough to get comfortable before we are "uprooted" again.  I keep telling myself that it is good for the kids.  It all… Continue reading Just like riding a bike

Life gets in the way

March 20, 2018March 20, 2018 Tracey

I know, I know, I said that I was getting back on track, but here we are. I've mentioned a few times that I recently had some surgery.  It hasn't been the worst of recoveries, but it has had its bumps.  I ended up in the ER 2 weeks after surgery because I had a… Continue reading Life gets in the way

Blessed

February 24, 2018February 23, 2018 Tracey

Sometimes, in the busyness of everyday life, being a wife, mother, friend, volunteer, etc. I forget to take notice of how very blessed I am.  Often, it takes the world grinding to a halt to make me really see how blessed I am again. This Monday I had surgery. I have actually been putting off… Continue reading Blessed

Bloom

January 27, 2018January 27, 2018 Tracey

We move a lot! Our most recent move was from Wellington, New Zealand to the DC Metro area.  We left New Zealand in late September and I must admit that I’ve been struggling a little with the move this time around.  I’ve never been particularly shy or introverted, but also don’t necessarily make friends easily.… Continue reading Bloom
