It is so hard to believe that it has been 15 years. That 15 years ago today I lay in a hospital bed, waiting on the arrival of my new baby. At the tender age of barely 17. I had no idea. No idea what to expect. No idea what to do. No idea how we were going to survive. No idea what being a mother would bring. No idea what we were going to go through together. No idea how blessed I would be. No idea how blessed WE would be. No idea how awesome he would be. No idea how scary it would be. No idea how scary it would ALWAYS be!

I absolutely love reading your blogs. We both have an army of children, and both had them younger than we should have. This one was adorable and extremely accurate. I still don't know what to expect. It is still scary as can be. We are blessed, no matter what stresses we face day to day with having big families.

AuthorWelcome! I am Mandie, a 30-something (ah!) wife and mother of 5. I am claiming this as my families little spot on the internet. Tag along as we adjust to life in the south, learn to have TWO self employed parents, and experiment with all things crafty and crazy! I am 100% sure that it won't always be pretty but it will always be real! I hope that you are blessed with some laughter or some camaraderie as you read! Archives
