Introducing...

This is actually my second blog.  My first was all about my family, my kiddos, my life.  While I enjoyed writing about my kiddos, life got overwhelming and I strayed...added another child to the mix...moved and well, LIFE. 

The thing about my first blog was that I had this tendency to get philosophical and deep.  It became less about my kids and more about what I wanted to share with my readers.  My readers were few because the blog was private and they were invited. So, we felt the same, thought the same, and well, it was pretty much my mom reading, so there you go. 

So, for years, I have wanted to write, share, encourage, etc.  But, I have had this MENTAL BLOCK, this WRITER'S BLOCK.  Then it occurred to me.  Its not a writer's block, its MOMMY BLOCK.

I have 4 children.  I love them each in their own unique way, but I am convinced, with each pregnancy, the brain cells leaked away, thus creating MOMMY BLOCK. 

So, here I am, writing about my life as a mom with 4.  It will not be all about crafts, cooking, and cute pictures of my children. My life is not a Pinterest page.  Far from it.

I love my husband, I love my children, but marriage is HARD and being a Mom is HARD.  I like having a clean, clutter free home, but have a hard time don't really enjoy keeping it that way. 

I have a chaotic, skeleton-filled closet.  While I will not air my dirty laundry here, I will be honest about my imperfect life and my God who loves me through it all, giving me breath to get to the next moment.

Mommy Block Averted...for now.
