I’m sure there’s a point in every girl’s life when she realizes she’s gone from the little girl she’s always been to the woman she will continue to become each day for the rest of her life.
For me it’s been a gradual process with clues I’ve missed all along the way. A new career to manage, a new husband, a mortgage payment…none of these were give-aways that I’d traded in my youth for womanhood.
But now that I have two little sets of eyes on me, it’s time for me to grow up and focus on what’s most important in life because there aren’t enough hours in the day for anything more.
My toddler watches and listens to every move I make…all this shaping the woman she’ll become one day. And the new baby boy, well, he’ll be doing the same soon enough.
Girl Grows Up follows my journey as a busy working mom trying to give 100 percent to all of life’s priorities (while celebrating my inner girlie who will likely never grow up)! I share time and money-saving tips, products reviews, and simple crafts and recipes as I stumble upon them. I also have a tendency to ramble about life in general. I hope you’ll join me!
About theGIRL…
theGIRL is a 30-year old wife and working mother from the Midwest. She loves to read (anything and everything) and write (when inspired or paid for it). She has a full-time job that keeps her busy writing, editing and coordinating projects throughout the week, and a two-year old daughter and newborn baby boy who keep her busy at all other times of the day!
She dreams of being a published writer.
Her ideal job involves writing and editing from home or a nearby coffee shop instead of an office.
She loves diet coke, peanut M&Ms, all things purple and Jesus. (Though, not in that order.)
She’s a devoted, yet flawed wife. A caring, yet imperfect friend. A faithful, yet unfinished daughter.
James 1:4
Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
James 2:22
You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did.
