Okay! Here goes...my first blog post! I am not sure why I am sitting up in bed at 12:30 AM on a Sunday morning starting a blog. I guess its just something that I have been thinking of doing for a while and now seems to be as good a time as any to start. As you can see from my blog name I am a momma. Just an ordinary, normal, everyday mom! I am by no stretch of the imagination a Super Mom...in fact, I wouldn't even say that I am a great mom. I am just new at this momma thing and well, I'm a work in progress - that's for sure. The one thing that I do know about being a momma so far...is that I LOVE it! I have loved every moment that I have had with my little girl since that moment when I saw her for the first time. And, although she is only 11 weeks old, (today! how time flies!) (I know you will all think "duh you are a work in progress, she is ONLY 11 weeks old") I keep thinking that time is going by so fast. She has already grown so much and learned so much...and I have been told that this growth and learning just keeps happening for the next 20 or so years. This scares me. I don't want to miss or a forget a moment of this time in our lives...hence the blog! I hope that this blog will be a sort of 'diary' for me. I hope to share my thoughts on being a momma, the adventures I have as a momma, my successes at being a momma, and the failures I have as a momma (that's a lot of 'momma's!). I also want to be able to look back on this blog and relive some of the memories of my daughter as she grows up! In addition to being a momma, I am the wife of the most amazing man! Once again, I am not a Super Wife or even a great wife. Just a normal, everyday wife. I will also be sharing and documenting my attempts at 'wifehood'. God has blessed me so abundantly by placing these two people in my life and my hope is that in this life I can show my thankfulness to Him by being the best momma and wife possible. Its a crazy life but a wonderful life and this blog is here to help me document and remember it! Stay tuned for some laughs, tears, and the story(s) of an average momma!
