I am a wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt, friend, cousin, worker, coach, leader, counselor, lover, giver, keeper, follower etc etc! ;) My newest role recently being wife! I got married just a few weeks ago to the most amazing man I've ever meet. And although this is a very new role for me and is somewhat difficult to adapt to (I'm a tad independent and stubborn) it is the most right thing I've ever felt. For the first time in my 31 years on this earth I feel that deep, intimate connection with someone and it leaves me in total aww! He is a strong man in every aspect of the definition yet he has this beautiful raw emotional heart that makes me love him more every time I see it. I'm working hard on learning to be the wife that he deserves and I'm loving every minute of it. Out of all the hats I wear this one feels the most comfortable...day by day I see that I was made to be a wife. I am also a mother. I honestly can't remember what it feels like to be anything but. I would not trade a day of it for anything in the world. Yes it's the toughest hat I wear but the most rewarding feeling imaginable. I'm not sure that I could picture my world without my two little men. It wouldn't be the same, I wouldn't be the same. I feel like I am who I am because of them. Yeah...that's deep I know! But it's so true. So much of who I am and where I am and why I am is because I owed it to them! God took a piece of my heart and made it into these two little innocent and amazing people and with that came the biggest responsibility I would ever be given. I will be forever greatful to have been chosen to receive these gifts. I could go on and on about my boys. They are my world, they were my strength thru some very difficult times! I imagine I will write about Jonah and Kameron many a times on here. Jonah is officially a teenager (wow), he is strong willed and independent, and a little rough around the edges! He will be very successful in life...he is one of those that can do anything he puts his mind to. Anything he touches wins, succeeds and thrives. An amazing spirit and soul! And then there is my baby Kameron! He recently hit double digits...yeah he's 10. Not a baby anymore. But he'll always be my baby. He is determined and a pleaser, a do gooder! He has the sweetest little heart and always wants to follow the rules. He will be an amazing husband and father some day. Such a beatuiful and sweet soul! And now I have a beautiful little girl to add to my list. My step daughter Sariya. She has such an innocent little heart and it makes me smile to watch her and her daddy interact. What a sweet bond they have. She's interested and curious about everything....always wants to know how and why. She has a huge heart and will probably leave her daddy spending many a nights cleaning his shot gun in a few years from now. haha.
I'm on a role it seems! I am very passionate about the things I love. Anyway, I have several nieces and now a few nephews. I love being an aunt. It's a fun role to play. You can love them and spoil them and then send them home. I have a big family and always have. I grew up spending a lot of time with extended family and that gave me lots of fun memories. Grandmas and Grandpas and tons of cousins and aunts and uncles. Those relationships are so important in developing who we are and what we will become. I still cherish those relationships to this day. Unfortunatley my family is now spread all over the place...where we call home is not where most of them call home so it makes it harder to have those rich relationships that we desire but we find special times to get together and that makes it even more fulfilling!
Above and beyond all that...I am a supervisor over 2 retail locations and work for a great company. Probably one of the best in our region. I enjoy what I do. I'm a coach and a leader. We also own our own business, yeah in all of our free time...haha! It kinda feel in my lap under some unfortunate circumstances BUT we've decided to make the best of it. It's successful and we're learning as we go so I can't complain. It'll be a good memory to look back on someday..."remember when we owned that skating rink?"! Comes with lots of hard work but also some nice rewards. Whewww...I have worn myself out so I'm sure that means it's time to wrap this up already. So that's it for now, until next time. ;)
