Hi, I’m Jessie. I’m from Boise, Idaho, which is not in Iowa. Or Indiana. Learn your states.

My husband Sam and I have three kids- Clara is 5, Sammy is 3, and Audrey is 1. I have no pets because why would you build a house to protect you from the wild, and then allow an animal to roam your halls?  In the words of the ever-wise Tina Fey,

“I have no affinity for animals. I don’t hate animals and I would never hurt an animal; I just don’t actively care about them. When a coworker shows me cute pictures of her dog, I struggle to respond correctly, like an autistic person who has been taught to recognize human emotions from flash cards. In short, I am the worst.”  

But back to the important stuff. Like why you felt ok clicking over to a blog with a name like this one? Something to consider.

When Sam and I got engaged, my grandma and my aunts asked me if I “really wanted to change my last name.” They were horrified at my future as a Horney.

I was thrilled.

And now look! I get to call myself a Horney Mom, which is great, even if some people don’t read this blog because their sister links it on their Facebook page and they just assume her account was hacked and she’s posting porn.

I digress.

My name is Jessie Horney. I am a writer. This is my blog. Enjoy.
