The reason.

After seeing that other stay at home moms blog I decided I should give it a shot. I have always loved writing. That’s one of the ways I managed to get through tough days. I have always wanted to have a blog (I have started and failed at many) but found that maintaining one was difficult because of a loss of interest. When I got married and started a family my passion became my family. I love my husband and son so much sometimes I forget I have a life outside of them. But everyone (especially women) need something that is their own. They need a place to run to in their time of need, a community that is willing to help whenever necessary. I know that saying my “place” is a blog is a little ridiculous, extreme, and unrealistic…I am just going to say it’s one of my places. It is a place for me to share my ideas, concerns, DIY projects, and be a creative outlet. If you want to see what is going through my life and mind, come here. I am determined to be as real and honest as I am a person. I have feelings and thoughts that are my own and this blog is a place for me to share them with you. I am so excited to do so!
I love movies. We are a movie family. My life passion has been acting, theatre, film, and anything to do with being something you’re not. It’s a great way to push you outside of your comfort zone. I was fortunate enough to meet, and marry, someone who shares the same passion. My wonderful husband spent his high school career on the stage (the first time I ever saw him…trust me it’s not as romantic as it sounds). We love everything about theatre and hope one day to start our own, but that is a far off dream right now.
Saying that Starbucks is a great place for coffee now a days is an understatement for us. Tyler and I met for the first time at the Starbucks in his town…we met for a second time at a Starbucks in my town…he gave me my promise ring at a Starbucks in a random town…and you would think he would have proposed there and we would have arranged to get married there but we decided to do things differently and elope to the local city hall and get hitched with just immediate family. We never got a chance to have a honeymoon because he lost his job about 2 months after we pledged ourselves to each other. But we had an amazing reception that reminded us that marriage isn’t about the bliss...it’s about a commitment. We have been married for a whopping two and half years and have a beautiful nine month old son who lights up our lives every day. My husband is my better half, my soul mate, and my best friend. Together we make the perfect team and I fall in love with him every day. We fight like every other couple and the best picture to give you to help you understand our relationship is comparing it to The Notebook. We are fighting about ridiculous things one minute and then we end up laughing and making out the next. It’s our bliss. I wouldn’t have it any other way. Telling you that that is the way to be married would be wrong because every relationship is different and works differently for different people and different couples.
