So I thought....what are the most important roles I play? Well, first and foremost my most important role is as a Daughter of the One True King! Any other role I play has been given to me by Him so it's all inclusive. But my next most important role is my role as a wife and helpmeet to my husband of over 16 years--Jon. He's the most amazing, supportive, faithful, rock solid man I know! I've said it for years....he's the only man I can imagine myself ever being married to because we just "fit" really well!!
My next role is being a mother and teacher to the six most amazing kids I've ever known! Not one of 'em is anything but strong willed--some with stronger wills than others, though--and I wouldn't have it any other way. I know that God is going to use them mightily for His kingdom! I do believe my oldest has the capability to change the world if he ever set his mind to it!
My next role as of the last couple of years is being a doula for moms (and dads) who desire to have the best birth experiences that they can have. I love this role because I love moms, babies and birth! It seems like such a natural way for my life to turn right now.
So this is the way I came up with the name for my blog! Of course, I have many other roles in life.... daughter, sister, friend, in law, church member, teacher, etc. Plus, there are lots of things that I am constantly educating myself about--nutrition, alternative medicine, herbs, breastfeeding, birth, homeschooling, natural remedies to all sorts of things.... so I will be posting about all these things that I find! I'm looking forward to being able to put all my thoughts in one place! I will keep my doula blog for professional purposes, but plan to put all my other thoughts here! :)
