Hello. I’m Tasha.

I am dreamer, a Hapa girl, wife to Matt, and mama to 3 little warriors: 2 wild boys and 1 little lady. I love french fries, world maps and Stabilo pens. A coffee-drinker, storyteller, and kimchi-eater; I was made to walk where cultures collide, on dirt roads and carefully placed cobblestone streets. Jesus is my heartbeat.

I’ve been struggling with an ongoing tension that comes with living where we do in the Midwest and being a biracial family. I’ve come to love and appreciate so many things about where we live, but I long for more diversity. I Iong for my kids to see other kids and families who look like them and like our family, and represent all sides of their heritage. If I am honest, I have very big feelings about all of this (hello, enneagram 4 🙋🏻‍♀️). Most days, I choose to practice gratitude and it’s true that this practice brings joy...but it doesn’t erase longing. But then, there are gifts that pop up like this one, right where we live, that give me hope. I can’t wait to finally be able to attend this year. 🇰🇷 . . . . #campkajok #adoptivefamily #hapafamily #familiesofcolor #grateful #gratefulbutlonging #longingformore #diversity #representationmatters

Sister Bees 🐝 butter is one of my very favorite things. Our family uses it for so many things: dry skin, rashes, bug bites and scar prevention. Our kids ask for it almost everyday. It’s truly the best balm/salve that we’ve ever used and I always have it on hand. My friend and fellow adoptive mama, @amber.boerema , is one of the founders and business owners of @thesisterbees and she’s a wonderful person with an enormous heart. We met her and her husband while we were both in Seoul to meet our daughters for the first time. If you are looking for a healing balm, you should give this stuff a try! . . . . #fridayfaves #afewofmyfavoritethings #beebutter #sisterbees #skinhealer #healingbalm #healingsalve #productsilove #seoulfriends

This strawberry-rhubarb kombucha is disappearing quickly. I might hide the rest of it behind the milk carton. 🤫 . . . . #kombucha #circlecitykombucha #strawberryrhubarb #feelgoodsoda #fishersfarmersmarket
