I like my life and the decisions I've made about my relationships with my dh, my children, and others. I do things differently than a lot of people. Many would find me strange, different or view my life as difficult or abusive or weird or something. Well, that's okay for you to think that and it's okay for our lives to be different. We have to do what works for us, our families and our relationships. We have to do what God tells us is right for our families.
I homeschool my children.
I leave 99% of decisions up to my dh or base my decisions on what I know he would want.
I "give in" to what he wants or desires more often then exerting what I want or would prefer.
I want LOTS of children even on the hard days.
I have a sleep room - not separate rooms for each child.
I choose not to attend church if my dh can't be there with us.
I'm okay with not having a vehicle at my immediate disposal.
I don't want to work outside the home, at a "9-5" job.
I nurse my babies for almost a year.
I use the computer too much!
I don't have to have new clothes or anything new for that matter.
We live in constant renovations and that's okay.
I don't normally get a sitter; our kids go with us almost everywhere.
I have my babies at home and want to always do so, even after a loss!
So, I may be different than you and that's okay. Today I'm tired of being different but that doesn't mean I'm going to change and "go with the flow" or with what society says is "right" or "normal". I am me and I like who I have decided to become.
Just our thoughts on everything from weight to homeschooling to children to parenting to politics to midwifery to blog memes.
