Welcome. My name is Kelli Nelson. This site is my writing playground, and more.
The Mom
Former corporate-type turned mompreneur living in the Midwest. I have an 18 year-old son and 5 year-old daughter.
Modern mom. Proud, confessed indulgent mom. Don’t get me wrong—I do have rules and expected behaviors for my children. Dance mom. OSU mom. Go Bucks!
Fur mom. The kids and I fell in love with a cavalier King Charles spaniel, and now he’s part of our family.
Advocate for underprivileged children, women and pressing global issues.
I love each of my two children the most.
But it’s not always about the kids, really…
More Than A Mom
Blessed. Grateful. Candid. Award-winning blogger. Social media enthusiast. Addicted to dark roasted coffees paired with Italian sweet crème. Red wine drinker. Fiction reader. Humor lover. Cake freak.
I believe in embracing life fully, the benefit of daydreaming, and celebrating imperfectionism—because human beings are beautifully flawed.
