Back to School and doin’ GREAT!

September 8, 2011 by Juliann

It is the second day of back-to-school for my three oldest kids.  Best part is,  they aren't complaining!  Yes!  You see that is a victory for me as a mom to know that my children actually like school, because I hated it from Kindergarten until graduation.  I was kind of shy for starters.  I think I cared way too much about what people thought about me,  and I had very low self-esteem.  I was way too skinny and had a very non-existent chest size.  I wish my entire self worth was not based upon how I looked back then, because I certainly don't want my own children's self-image to be based on that.  I know I am biased,  but I do believe I have very good-looking children.  Best of all, however, is that I know my children have high self-esteem that comes from within.  They believe in themselves and that will get them much farther in life than outer beauty which unfortunately does fade away.

Here are some pictures of my four children whom I adore and love with all of my soul:)

About This Blog

Juliann, founder of Beautiful Moms

Welcome to Beautiful Moms!

Hi! I'm Juliann, wife of 33 years to Jon, a mom to four amazing children, and a proud grandma to five precious little ones. I live in Oregon.

When I started Beautiful Moms in 2008, my goal was to connect with other moms who were also raising young children. It became a creative outlet for me to share my thoughts on motherhood, review products I loved, and work with brands that help make family life a little easier.

More importantly, I wanted moms to feel seen. It's so easy to lose ourselves in the demands of caring for everyone else and forget that our own well-being matters, too. Every mom deserves to feel beautiful, valued, and appreciated, no matter what stage of motherhood she's in.

Over the years, Beautiful Moms has evolved right along with me. My children are now all grown up, and I'm blessed to be a grandma.

Life changes so quickly

One thing that hasn't changed is my passion for encouraging other moms—it's simply expanded to include every season of motherhood—from pregnancy and baby's first years to raising teens, becoming an empty nester, navigating healthy aging, and everything in between.


Myelie, contributor at Beautiful Moms

I'm excited to have my daughter, Myelie, join the Beautiful Moms team as a new contributor. As the mom of a newborn and a busy toddler, she brings a fresh perspective on modern motherhood.

She lives in Alabama with her military husband, so she also understands the unique challenges of military life, frequent moves, and building a happy home wherever life takes you.
