(PHOTOS) Here's My Post-Partum Body: No Fear. No Regrets.

Somer Canon

My truth is that my body never returned to what it was pre-baby. My truth is that my stretch marks were not minimal and the stretched skin never really puckered back up. My truth is that my belly button will always look a little weird and wrinkly now. My truth is that there will always be a bit of a lip at the bottom of my stomach from where the loose skin hangs, thanks to either C-sections or very large babies. I wanted to post pictures of my truth to show that I have no regrets concerning this truth. I have no fear of it.  Read more >

We Need to Talk

Yesterday I noticed a lot of the people that I follow on Twitter tweeting with the hashtag #tweetyour16yearoldself.  I tried all day to think of one small thing to say to my former self and couldn’t think of only one that was good enough.  My 16 year-old self and I need to have a sit down and say more than 140 characters can hold.

The Other Side of the Fence (Life After Bankruptcy)

I think that it’s a big thing that I can say that Jessie and I never fight about money.  When things are tight and we are stressed about how we are going to make our money stretch, we are able to sit and talk it out without fighting about it.  This is a part of my marriage that makes me very proud.

About Me: 

I'm an unextraordinary girl.  I am a stay-at-home-mom and I love blogging and reading blogs.  I'm not particularly talented at anything.  I'm one of those people who's simply competent at a few things, and that's good enough for me. 

I'm married.  I have two sons.  That's all the serious stuff about me.  The rest of me is messy and tends to overflow into messy puddles all over the place. 

The fact that I am really uncomfortable writing bios for myself like this might be why this is so messy.  Honestly, I don't know what to say in a quick blurb about myself that makes me seem interesting.  I love to write, am compelled to do so, actually, and that is why I am here.  To write and share my writings.
