Thanks for joining me!
For years people have been encouraging me to write a book. I started a book several years ago. Then, I decided that I needed to write a different type of book, so I started that one. Of course, for no real reason, I decided that I should pursue my doctorate degree, and now I’m writing a dissertation concerning Metacognitive Pedagogy Deficiency. Because yes.
But, I have more to say. More than I even know where to start. More than one book could handle and more than my family probably wants me share. This blog is an attempt to write for myself about my journey as a mom, wife, daughter, sister, teacher, friend and everything in between. Most of the time, I’m not even sure where one role ends and the other begins. What I do know is that I struggle. I don’t struggle to be perfect or really even great. I just struggle to be the best version of myself that I can. Everyday. Some days, I completely rock and other days, well, I suck.
I’m starting this blog because to keep my experiences quiet feels wrong. I love the Lord. I am a Christian. I am also a really tired, often overwhelmed sinner who makes mistakes. Sometimes I learn from my mistakes and other times, I keep making the same mistakes hoping for different results, which is in fact the definition of insanity. I’m insane, I suppose. But that’s okay. I think if we’re honest with each other, we all have a little bit of insanity present.
I’m going to share my insane experiences with you. I’m going to write and you are free to join me as I share out. Or don’t. I’m not updating you on my family, health, cute pictures of my kids, or anything else that I do on Facebook. I’m just going to write and share with you some of the struggles that I’ve faced as a mom and how I’ve lived through them. And, how I’ve found joy even on the darkest days. If I can even help or inspire one person to have a better day, well then this will be worth it.
Let’s do this!
