I’m Shannon

I am here to give my imperfect view on being  a Mom, Wife, and Human that falls short most days. I started this blog to give hope to those that feel they are alone in this failed attempt at perfection. It has taken me way too long to realize that God doesn’t expect us to be perfect. We can’t be! I usually have to relearn this fact daily, and ohhhh is it painful sometimes.

Now the real deets about me: I grew up as a Pastor’s daughter, decided I didn’t want to be ‘Perfect’ anymore, which in turn  led to years of bad choices. This is when I met my amazing, sexy (yes I said SEXY) husband! We found each other when we were at our worst. But God still loved us and wanted us back! Thank goodness, I was a mess! Now we are back on track, have an awesome marriage and 3 amazing kids: Will-14, Aleigha-5, Lynlee-3. I am technically a Step-mom to Will but, we don’t use that word. To him, I am Mom and he is my son. I work full time as a Quality Assurance Analyst(sounds way cooler than it is) and my husband and I own our own Piercing studio(now that is as cool as it sounds).

Hopefully, my experience and random bits of insight can help give hope that it is okay to try and fail. Just try. Or, you may take comfort in the fact that you have it more together than this chick!’ That is totally OK too.

I am a not a writer, so please do not expect eloquently written blogs 🙂 These will be random, raw, and maybe funny.
