Orlando Mom Blog

1000 Lovely Things is an Orlando Mom Blog about real motherhood, everyday life, and finding beauty in the middle of busy days. I share honest stories, family life, local Orlando favorites, and the small moments that make ordinary life feel special.
This space isn’t about perfection — it’s about noticing what’s good, laughing through the chaos, and appreciating the lovely things that show up right where you are.
I’m glad you’re here.

About Me

I’m Julie — born and raised in Orlando, married, and mom to three kids who are all teenagers now. Our days are full, loud, and constantly changing, and I’ve learned to appreciate the small, steady moments in the middle of it all.
1000 Lovely Things is where I share real family life, motherhood through the teen years, and the everyday things that make life feel meaningful — especially here in Central Florida.
