The Road Moms Travel...

Life has certainly been a journey, especially these last few years. I am amazed at the faithfulness of God and His immeasurable grace. He is teaching me so much. I am blessed beyond measure. I feel so incredibly thankful for my husband and the three children we have brought into this world. Our children are precious little human beings and I feel so excited to be able to share my life with them. Motherhood has been one of the greatest and also one of the most challenging roads I have taken. It is a struggle to find balance in my life and daily I am trying to learn how to be a better mother to three children without losing myself in the process. Most days around here are an absolute zoo! I am discovering new levels of exhaustion, which is always fun. Probably one of the greatest statements ever made to me was by my dear friend, Rachel, when she said to me, "Some days we thrive, others we just survive." This has become my mantra! It was actually this same friend who encouraged me to "blog it out" and so here I am, giving it a try. For me, writing has always been a cathartic experience, so this could be helpful! If nothing else, I'll be able to show off pictures of my kids. After all, who doesn't love the chance to do that!
