What is in a name?

I have had many titles in my life: Daughter, Sister, Student, Coordinator, Lead, Manager, Analyst, Administrator…but none have proven to be more complex and comprehensive than MOM. My husband and I met in 2000; we dated for 6 years before getting married at the historic Mission San Luis Rey in Oceanside, CA. A little less than 3 years later we welcomed our first little girl Isabelle Aurora, from that moment I took on the ambitious title of Mom.  Just shy of 22 months later we were overjoyed to add Samantha Addison to the family and I was now a proud mother to 2 little girls…aka Double Trouble. Over the past 5 years I have learned no matter what kind of mom I think I need to be, I need to remember to be ME and not to lose myself in my titles. This blog is to help me share my approach to the Adventures of Domestic Life and how I am Mom, Wife, and ME every day.
