Introduction

A little about me to start - I was born and raised in Florida just outside of Orlando. After getting maried to my best friend in the Orlando, Florida temple in 2003 hubby and I traded the beaches for the mountains and ended up in New England. I've fallen in love with the people and seasons here although I still am a little apprehensive about driving in snow and consider hibernating a viable option for surviving winter. We have been blessed with four amazing children who teach me so much about life and love that I never even knew I wanted to know and one special angel baby. I was born and raised as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Although what I write is in no way intended to be considered as anything other than my own feelings and thoughts, my faith is a huge part of who I am. I love writing, reading, nature, cooking, eating, traveling, photography, music, and just being with the people I love and looking for ways to shine a little light wherever I can in the world around me. I'm starting this blog with the hope that someone else will benefit in some way from my ups and downs and the lessons life seems to keep trying to teach me along the way because I believe as women, wives, mothers, and humans, we're kind of all in this together and we need all the help we can get. I also consider it a personal form of therapy because writing helps me process and organize my ideas which has been a big part of my healing from depression and anxiety. Thanks for stopping by!
