Minutes for Mama: About Me

Who am I? Just your average housewife. Wife of ten years, mother of six, ages eight and under: Miss B (9), Handsome H (7 1/2), Sir L (6 1/2), Princess P (5), Cute C (2), and Baby M (1). There's no turning back now! But somehow, amidst the endless dirty diapers, runny noses, broken dishes, dramatic episodes, destroyed rooms, stained clothes, sibling rivalries, and Dora the Explorer episodes, I wouldn't have it any other way. I am the luckiest mama around, and "my minutes", if I want any.. start at 1am when the house is finally quiet.

The past (soon to be) 11 years of our married life have been a wild and exciting ride to say the least! From Idaho to Utah, to Arizona then Michigan, 2 years in Sao Paulo Brazil and now Texas, we always seem to be running! Sometimes we need to force ourselves to stop and make sure it's still in the right direction! ;)

Why Minutes for Mama? Do I even need to explain?? Here lies the secrets to my successes, the lessons from my failures, and all the craziness in between. Welcome to your daily dose of reality check. Life isn't always what it seems, but in the imperfections it just might be better than you'd dreamed!
