I am just a girl who became a woman and was lucky enough to also become a mom. Motherhood has transcended me into a woman I never knew was possible. While my faith stays in the top spot of continual transformation, motherhood is a close second. I am beyond grateful and overwhelmed by the opportunity to be a mother. It is my greatest joy and most treasured adventure. 

Now onto words. When words are jumbled up with my experiences that stay in my mind, I stay stuck. I stay confused, and I ruminate on the pain, darkness, and loss of all the things I wanted in this life. But something breaks in me when I pick up a pen or open a blank document and unleash those thoughts and memories. It is not a break like the crack in a bone, but a break like cracking a glow stick. A break that releases light that glows in the darkest room. This is what writing does for me. It breaks me into illumination. A clarity comes that I can’t explain until I finish the piece of writing I started. It is a revelation between me and my creator and now with you. I hope the revelations I write about bring you a sense of feeling seen, heard, and understood while catching a glimpse of our creator.  Thank you for being here.
