Just a Small Town Girl

Posted on: May 22, 2015 | Family, Parenting

I am not a blogger, I do not blog.  Well, I mean I guess I do now…

I am just a girl from a small midwestern town trying to do her best.  Trying to raise 4 kids the best way I know how and yet I know I could be doing better.  Trying to be the best wife I can possibly be.  Trying to be Betty Crocker, Martha Stewart, Suzie Homemaker and a million other people on a daily basis.

Trying to find me.  Trying to find out who I am beyond wife, mother, sister, daughter.

I know some things about me.  I am fluent in sarcasm.  I didn’t know hedgehogs were real until recently.  I like bacon.  Ok I love bacon.  I am a little girlier than I used to believe I was…I am even starting to like the color pink.  If only you knew how I used to feel about this “color” you would know how significant that is.

I love being a mom and wife.  I have found my other passion in life.  I love birth.  I love teaching childbirth education using The Bradley Method® and hearing from my students how I helped them.  I love supporting women and reminding them how strong they are as they bring their new blessing into this world.  I love, as their doula, knowing I helped them have the birth they wanted.

There is so much more to me than I ever knew.
