A Wife, Woman, and Mother

I had the idea for this blog with one word in mind. Support. Especially for the everyday woman juggling multiple jobs, and commonly feeling overwhelmed. She is tackling a cluttered home, chauffering around children, and giving her household members the attention they all crave. And she is tired. This describes me. Often drowning in laundry and to-do lists. As a wife, woman, and mother, I am either seeking support or providing it; usually the latter.  Because of this, I wanted to create a space where I could share my frustrations, heartaches, and triumphs. In hopes that even a stranger 2,000 miles away might read about the overwhelming nature of motherhood on a particular day and send a message saying “Girl, same!”

Admittedly, loneliness is a state that we all feel at some point. I have a big household, filled with children, animals, and my husband. (along with schedules, responsibilities, chores, and hassles) The house is chaotic and full of different personalities. I am needed, and I love that they all need me. Yet, at the end of the day, I can feel depleted and alone. So I journal. And recently, I had the brave idea to open my pages to the world.

I am starting this blog to be a source of support and comfort. And maybe by sharing the good, better, and my worst, I will be able to find and fulfill whatever I am missing in my own life. I have categorized my entries into three sections to reflect the different areas of my life. Womanhood, wifehood, and motherhood. I’m welcoming you into my world of life, love, confusion, and everything in between. Go on and start from the beginning, or jump into my mess of a world from my last entry.

Enjoy the journey!
