Welcome to

Lost Keys and Late Fees

Welcome to Lost Keys and Late Fees: where the chaos is real, the laughter is loud, and the coffee is cold (because, priorities). I’m Ashley, a wife, mom and professional squirrel-chaser, trying to navigate the beautiful mess of our ADHD family life.

If your mornings sound like a symphony of misplaced shoes, forgotten backpacks, and frantic reminders to brush teeth, you're in good company. Join me as we share stories, swap survival tips, and celebrate the perfectly imperfect moments that make our ADHD families so unique. So grab a cup of lukewarm coffee (or throw it in the microwave for the third time), kick off your shoes (hopefully you can find them later), and get ready for a wild ride. It's about to get messy, but hey, that's just how we roll.

About Me

Hey there! I'm Ashley, the proud owner of a perpetually messy bun, a house that looks like a toy store exploded, and four amazing kiddos (two of whom share my superpower: ADHD). We're a Michigan-based family who thrives on chaos, runs on coffee, and loses things on a daily (sometimes hourly) basis.

A few years ago, I got a little surprise at the ripe old age of 36: an ADHD diagnosis. And guess what? Two of my kiddos are part of the club too! Since then, it's been a whirlwind of learning, growing, and figuring out how to embrace our beautifully chaotic brains. We're still figuring things out, but hey, who isn't?

This blog is my little corner of the internet to share our ADHD adventures, swap survival tips, celebrate our wins, and laugh (a lot!) at our epic fails. So grab a snack (or whatever you find under the couch cushions), kick back, and join our crazy crew. We promise it'll be fun, maybe a little messy, but always full of love and laughter.
