I’ve been asked, as I’m sure a lot of us have, how to break into the giant world of blogging. I know it’s easy to feel lost, unknown, and completely overwhelmed when you first start a blog. And there is SO much to learn that it’s almost impossible to get going without some help. So…

I’ve been blogging for 4 1/2 months

Hosting McFatty Monday with my very first vlog
ContinueIf you’ve never been to my blog before, welcome! A quick intro: I’m a first time mom to Bella, 6 months, and wife to Sam, and currently a SAHM. However, we’re moving and I have to go back to work when we do. I enjoyed eating as much as possible while pregnant and exclusively breastfeeding, but…
{About Me}
Sam and I have been married since I was 19. He was 20. He's an OIF, medically retired veteran of the Army and Marines. We have 5 children - Bella was born in 2009 after a rather bumpy pregnancy and her first year was mostly crazy reflux. Preston and Julian, my identical twins, were born at 20 weeks in 2012 and lived only a few hours. Kaden was born full term in 2013 seemingly perfect, and at 4 days old he was found to have cardiomyopathy due to ciHHV-6. He passed away at 3 weeks old. Charlotte was born in 2015, and was a complete surprise to us. Each of them have changed our lives completely.
Currently I'm in school to become a counselor who focuses on trauma and grief.
I love Jesus - even though sometimes I get really angry and upset at the way our life has gone. I hope through my faults, insecurities, snarkiness, selfish nature, and general mess - my love for Christ and His work in my life shines through in my story.
