Heyy!! :)
Welcome To My First Blog!!
This has been something I have always wanted to do. I think I can accurately describe myself as a person always lost in thought. As a child I would sit and think about who I was going to be as an adult. I wondered what kind of woman I would turn out to be, would I have a Husband? children? where I would live? and what kind of influence would I have on people around me? and would I be doing what I was designed to do?
I believe in God, I believe that he has a plan for each and every one of us. And I believe wholly that he has taken me on.. and is continuing to take me on a really interesting journey. I have only been here 26 years. Like everyone, I've experienced hard times, heart ache, but without those hard times there is no way that I could be the person that I am today. I would just like to hope that I can only better myself.. not just for myself, but my family, my beautiful children and everyone I encounter in life.
If you know me well, you will know dam well how much my children mean to me. They are my world. Each day of mine is dedicated to trying to help these amazing little people be the best they can be.. and for them to understand how much I love them and respect them as an EQUAL person is very important to me. I have very very very strong ideas, values and beliefs when it comes to parenting. If you follow this blog you will learn that!!!! And sometimes some topics that I will talk about will be controversial. But whilst I have strong views, I never ever intend to hurt or offend anyone.. what another mother does is her business, but my children are my responsibility and I cant back down on my values. You will read all about the ups and downs of my life being a mother.. what a fun fun job it is too! (Im being serious!)
I have commited myself this year to trying to work out more of a balance between looking after my children (full time job!) and looking after myself.. and also making healthier better choices. If you know me well enough too, you'll know how much I thrive on new information.. I love knowledge, I love learning and researching and making educated decisions about everything in my life. So anyway, my research has led me to making amazing choices (well I think theyre amazing anyway), I've recently commited myself to being a vegan.. No animal products for me!! and I'm currently learning about living organically and free of preservatives and other nasties.. I want numbers (preservatives) out of our lives.. and I want to be able to educate my children about healthier ways to live. So anyways, this blog is going to be a log of lots of new things I've learnt and am learning about this stuff.. It will be awesome :)
I was once a self-confessed Gym Junkie.. before I had children of course.. I thrive and love love LOVE being fit, healthy and strong!! It makes my mind work better, it makes me just feel awesome and positive. I am an active person, I cant sit still normally and I HAVE to get out of the house everyday, walking, to the park, beach, SOMETHING!! Anyways, with having kids, my training has been put on the back burner, but not any more!! This year I resolved to making myself have more time to myself.. and that time I am very happy to say that I am putting it into going to the gym, getting fit and strong again! This will benefit me of course, but will benefit my family and children because a much happier mummy will be coming home to them! :) I will not allow myself to feel selfish about this because its important. This blog will be a little way to motivate myself to achieve my goals because I guess Ill have to account for them right!? ;)
But anyways, I just want to be able to write directly out of my daily life experiences.. I want to write down what inspires me, what makes me happy and what makes me mad.. what I'm learning.. and even when I stuff up.. Im human. :/ lol
I want this to be a positive space.. while there might be the occasional rant and rave and carry on.. thats life, I want to be able to find a positive out of every negative that goes on in my life. I want to grow in my experiences, learn from them and become a better person each and every day.
What I like about myself is that I am open minded.. I am open to experience, I love new and different opinions and I cant wait to see what is thrown at me this year.
Anyways, I think thats an O.K first blog guys.. ;)
