Hi! I’m Meagan Francis, a mom-about-town of five: Jacob, 11, Isaac, 9, William, 5, Owen, 3, and baby Clara, who was born in March. I’m author of two books, most recently Table for Eight: Raising a Large Family in a Small-Family World. I also have a few blogs: The Happiest Mom, where I write about finding satisfaction and happiness with my life as a mother; LargerFamilies.com, where a cast of moms of many and I write about raising larger-than-average families; and at my website MeaganFrancis.com, where I write about a mix of issues from my professional life to my kids.

I also write about family life, motherhood, and travel for a variety of magazines and websites including Parents, Parenting, Family.com and Away.com, where I’m a Family Travel Expert. As you might guess, I love being on the go with my family, which can pose some challenges. For instance, how do I prepare for all the possible emergencies that might befall us when I’m out with a potty-training preschooler, a baby and three big kids? How do I choose healthy, whole snacks that are easy to prepare and get out the door? And how on earth do I hold a baby and two sets of hands while crossing the street?

I’ll be blogging about all of it here on the Mott’s More To the Core blog, and I hope you’ll follow our adventures as we seek out adventure in our backyard and beyond.
