The sun will rise tomorrow
This morning I was looking up quotes on Pinterest when my significant other asked me what I was doing. I told him what I was doing and he asked me, “Who’s your hero.” Catching me off guard with a question that I had never really thought about as an adult. I sat for a while and thought about what makes someone a hero in your own, personal life. In my head a hero is someone who walks in when everyone else walks out. People who have the courage to push when everyone one else is pulling; fearless everyday people who want not only success for themselves, but for others as well. Unique individuals who know that our world depends on happiness that circulates through. In this time I would have to say that all those large-hearted individuals who are risking their lives during this unforeseen pandemic; they may just be the heroes I described above. Each and every one of them, they play an essential role in our everyday lives. Recognize it or not, half the things we do in our lives, we rely on these kind strangers.

Being that Perfect Parent
We all meet those "bumps" in the road. How do you know that you're doing it right? Being a mom was not always something I wanted out of life. I loved other people's kids, they weren't permanent, and I didn't have to wipe their buts well. Then I became pregnant with my first daughter, Macy. At that time in my life I was a mess, and during my whole pregnancy I struggled deeply with depression. I had no faith in myself. I constantly told myself I couldn't do it, and at the time I really believed it. I wouldn't say I had the best childhood growing up, it wasn't awful but my mom was often cold towards me. I think maybe that's the reason I told myself that I never wanted to have kids. I considered adoption and I considered that idea that maybe I could do it. When my daughter was born I was so happy she was here, but my struggles with life and myself were still present.
