Why I write/ About Megan

It’s about time I updated this.  I am now a 26 year old high school English teacher with a strong urge to document my time as a young mother expecting my second child.  I am currently teaching full time at a large technical and academic high school.  I love to teach, and I love to mother.  Doing both is challenging, and without 2 families that help us and encourage us I know I couldn’t do it.

My child is currently about 16 months old.  She is light and air and wind and rain.  She speaks in tongues, but does have a few words in her repertoire.  I pretty much think she’s the world’s perfect child, perfectly imperfect.  She is our world.

I have been married nearly 2 years and love my husband the same way I love my baby girl- with everything I have.  He is learning to be a dad as I am learning to be a mom and he provides for our family in all ways possible.  We love him a lot.  Yeah.

I have a 1.5 year old black lab named Gracie- she is my bane and my love.  We have a true love hate relationship, but the love rows each day!  She is our fur baby.  Our 2 year old black lab, Maggie, passed away one week after Shiloh was born.  She was our best friend and first daughter and we miss her every minute.  Every minute.

I am beyond excited to have a family of four.  I love caressing my smallish baby bump (almost 13 weeks along as I write this).  I dream of a family of 2 children that play and love each other, as they teach each other how to forgive and how to get over differences.  Being a sibling teaches you so much!  Thank you for reading about our journey.  I hope it’s as entertaining for you as it is for us!
