Hello! Man, who's ready for a weekend?!? It's been a whirlwind of a wind and I'm so excited to have a couple days to regroup over here. Let's kick things off with Five on Friday ~
1. Through Mom's Eyes by Sheinelle Jones
Sheinelle Jones, one of the familiar and beloved faces from the Today Show, has written a book—and I am so excited to get my hands on it! I’ve always appreciated her warmth, authenticity, and the way she connects with people on screen, so I have a feeling her writing will be just as engaging. I can’t wait to dive in, hear more of her story, and see what insights and inspiration she shares in this new chapter.
From the beloved Today show host Sheinelle Jones comes an inspiring collection of heartfelt life-lessons from hard working moms who raised some of our favorite celebrities.
When Sheinelle Jones launched “Through Mom’s Eyes,” a recurring Today show segment interviewing celebrities’ mothers about raising successful kids, she had an ulterior motive—she wanted to bring all their wisdom to bear on raising her own three children. So she asked Lin-Manuel Miranda’s mom about staying present with kids while balancing a demanding career, talked with Lady Gaga’s mom about how to recognize bullying, and got tips from Steph Curry’s mom on making sure even future NBA royalty does his chores. She has since interviewed dozens of remarkable women and gathered a candid, warm, and insightful collection of valuable lessons about life, love, and parenthood.
Now in her first book, Through Mom’s Eyes, Sheinelle is ready to share even more of those life-changing secrets with the world. Combining insights from celebrity mothers with her own journey through modern parenting, Sheinelle reveals how to make it through the hard parts of motherhood and still tap into the joys of it with empathy, generosity, and solidarity. Through Mom’s Eyes is a beautiful celebration of those who are the guiding light for their loved ones—mothers.
Looking to see a movie this weekend? Normal, starring Bob Odenkirk, opens in theaters today and it looks like a movie Eric and I would both enjoy. Heres the summary ~
Normal is a neo-Western thriller that stars Bob Odenkirk as Ulysses, an unassuming substitute sheriff assigned to the quiet Midwestern town of Normal. Seeking a temporary escape from personal and professional turmoil, Ulysses instead finds himself drawn into a crisis when a botched bank robbery exposes a dangerous secret beneath the town's calm exterior. As tensions escalate (and boy, do they escalate), he is forced to confront his troubled past and the true nature of the community he has been tasked with protecting.
With the warmer weather finally here, we got our bird bath up and running again last weekend. We’ve been using this solar-powered model for years now, and it’s been such a great addition to our yard. I originally chose it after reading that it could help attract hummingbirds—and it must be true, because we’ve seen more of them visit each year! It’s incredibly easy to set up and comes with several spray options, so you can switch up the look and flow depending on what you like.
Are your windows due for a little spring cleaning? I recently found this handy squeegee, and it made the whole process so much easier! It features a built-in spray bottle, so you can keep your cleaning solution right on hand—no extra supplies needed. Just spray and swipe for a streak-free shine. It’s not only perfect for windows, but also works great on shower doors, car windows, and mirrors.
