Blessed Mum

Hello! I am a mother, wife, and Jesus-lover living near Cincinnati, Ohio. When I am not trying to get my boys off of their screens and into the world outside or cleaning up messes from my Boxer, you can find me seeking quiet moments to read, study, write, and think about the blessings I have been showered with.

My story

I became a Stay-at-Home Mum in February 2016 when my first son was born – a bit of a transition from a Secondary English Teacher. Yes, yes I did capitalize those titles on purpose. My profession used to define me, or at least I thought that it did.

Now, many years later, I return to the workforce. Balancing work and family is a new lesson for me. Writing is a blessing to both my family and to me. I hope that this blog can be a blessing for you also.

No person is just one thing. We are all made up of different facets – our personalities and ideas affected by both how we are perceived and how we perceive the world. I am a woman who has grown up with a wonderful family, has lost and found Faith, has questioned how society views the individual and is now learning how to be a new(ish) version of myself through Jesus and motherhood.

My approach

I try to read my Bible everyday. It is my special time – the best way I know to center myself and focus on what is most important.

When funny, heartwarming, or hard moments pop up, my mind often returns to a verse or book of the Bible. It is the reading and reflecting that comes with that writing that reminds me of God’s continual goodness. Life is not easy, but it can be good.
