Finding Balance

Category:

Okay so I have my baby turning 5 this week and getting ready to attend kindergarten this coming year. Well its brought me to some soul searching on the next chapter of my mothering and home skills adventure.

I started my home based business to create a bit of extra income and be able to stay at home with my two young growing boys. My husband and I own a vintage 5 and dime thats had barely survived the past 60 some years. Some month are better than others and we have adapted by not always living for the money. But its amazing to be ones own boss and feel like we are not part of the rat race. I have always been a bit different in the ideas of what norm is, and as I'm approaching this next chapter of being a mom and wife what do I want. Thats the question.

I know I have grown a lot since I had my first child 8 going on 9 years ago. I have recently really felt from the deep of my belly the need to nurture and be a creative person so very much. I Love making cheese, soap, candles and the sense of peace in the garden from creating food that will fill my little mans belly is simply amazing. I crave this, this moment of fulfillment and connection. About a year ago I read a book Animal vegetable miracle and it changed my life. I finally found my connection. In the past I had that urge but did not know what it was. After reading the book so much made sense to me and I started to apply it to my own home and family. Now Im not perfect and there are quite a bit I just cant do. But I am finding more and more I can apply to our lives.

now I have a direction of where I want to go with my family, but I need to figure out the balance. But I know it can be achieved.

I want to be a homemaker!
