A friend of mine inspired me to start a blog. Like many mom's, we tend to loose track of ourselves somewhere along the way. Even in relationships. I was in such a rut for so very long and let negativity consume me. I have become proactive in my life and want to be a better version of the young 2osomething I use to be (and like). I quit my job, got rid of the negative people surrounding me, and shed that skin right off. I feel lighter, happier, and surrounding myself with women friends who actually are strong caring friends. It is like a total clense. My relationships with my husband, child, and friends have only improved.
This blog seems like the right outlet. We can inspire one another and I can remind myself of who I am when I start to feel bummed out.
That's awesome you had the balls to quit your job! Its great spending all day with your kid, well, most of the time! Good for you on not being negative anymore! I had to do the same thing. Wasn't very good for Maggie at all.
ReplyDeleteGood for you for starting a blog! I started mine after Eila was born just to have something for myself, although at the time, I don't think I realized that that was why I was doing it! And, I love the above picture of your little guy...
ReplyDeleteI am so proud of you!! That is the best thing you can do..These past couple of years I also did a cleanse on my life, friends, etc...You need to surround yourself with positive things to be the best possible parent and partner and to yourself...We live on a very tight budget, but make all of our decisions on having a parent at home with the kids because we felt it was very important. I can't wait to hear and see what you are doing. I know that you are an incredible mom just like you are as a person and friend.
