I can honestly say that for the first time since being pregnant for Roman that I am beginning to feel like myself again. Geesh.... gestating and rearing children sure has a way of taking "you" out of "you." It was truly a struggle between the lack of sleep, round the clock nursing, nurturing a baby, raising a toddler, being wife to a husband AND a part time career. Lately I feel better. I am able to focus more on my mental, spiritual, and physical self.
My husband and little nuggets will always hold center stage, but over the past few months I have been feeling a tug to expand myself outside of the four walls of our home. I know that sharing my talents and passions with others will help to balance me more as a wife and mother. Isn't it crazy how that works...
Here is my current list of favorite things to do:
- Listen to Pandora radio while creating things in my kitchen. (blogging, baking, crafting) I turned on music and turned off the television set in November. I was tired of the constant "noise."
- I signed up for a photography class. This is something that I have wanted to do for quite some time.
- Go to dinner once a month with some of my college girlfriends
- MOPS
- I was recently asked to sit on an associate board for a missionary organization. I am still wondering... me? This one is defiantly shaking me out of my comfort zone. Last night we met for the first time. I was fortunate enough to share a meal with a group of selfless individuals who serve a purpose much greater than ourselves.
