As you may have guessed, I am Melissa. I am a mother that is blessed with the fortune to stay home with my 3 littles and homeschool them. They are 13, 9 & 7. I have a 27yr old whom does not live at home and 6 bonus kids ranging from age 19-30.
I'm real-life, I talk alot. I was a military child moving every 2.5 to 3 yrs and it's how I learned to manage. I also tent to be a fixed and natural born nurturer. These two gifts aren't always my strong suites.
I am Gemini. For those that know, that explains alot, but for the rest I will fill you in. I dont do well with exact punctuality, strick schedules or conflicting morals. I say morals verse rules because the ones we choose to follow usually have a moral purpose. My day depends on two things, actual accountable appointments and my mood. I function on goal setting and achievements. I may be a little undiagnosed ADHD and definitely carry some OCD traits. Mental health has slapped me in the face time and time again through life; mine as well as those I love. Addiction has been a beast i have watched enough love ones battle that I stand clear of any unhealthy addiction.
I have seen, heard and endured things I wouldn't wish on my worst enemies. I have always shown up for everyone else. As I near 50, I am learning to show up for me.
Crochet is a huge part of that. It is also my business. Which is evolving along with me.
I truly hope to find peace in transparency, growth thru vulnerability, and community throughout this journey.
