ABOUT
So you want to get to know me? Well get on board. I’m 33 years old and I’m still doing just that. I’m a mother to two healthy, beautiful children. One boy and one girl. I’m a future wife, a sister, a daughter, I work as a medical assistant and I’m an aspiring writer, although that’s not really why I started this blog. This year has been one for the books. (pun intended). I saw something in me shift, not in a positive way. I started to feel lost and realized that the only way I ever really found myself was when I was writing. But I wanted something I could commit to. Something that would be long term and also keep me busy for my fiance’s upcoming redeployment. So I decided to start this blog to write my way through this next difficult chapter in my life and hopefully anyone else who is on a similar journey will be able to work through their own life with me. Being a mother, a wife, and the maker and backbone of your home can be a tough but fullfilling life. But sometimes through it all you can start to lose yourself a little, along with your sanity. So buckle up and let’s find ourselves together as we tread through this life of motherhood, wife and military life. Bottoms Up! Salute!
