Who I Am (AKA Introduction)

Welcome to my blog, and thank you for following my journey. I will be posting about what has brought me to this point in the upcoming weeks. For now though, I will tell you a little bit about my little family.

I am Tabitha, I'm 24, a Christian, a PROUD truckers kid, a preacher's grandkid, a single mom, and a birthmom. I have two precious children. Mini-Me is 4 and 1/2, and little E just turned 3.  Mini-Me is the child I am raising (and she is quite the handful), and little E is the child I placed for adoption.

I decided to start this blog because there is so much that I want to be able to share with others, and I am finally ready to step out of my bubble, and let the world know who I am and what I stand for.

I am a Christian. I am raising my child the best way I know how. I am teaching her the difference between right and wrong. I am teaching her what the Bible says about how we should live our lives. What I will also teach her is that parents make mistakes. Everything I teach her, I am now striving to live. I have not always lived as I should, but I am making my way forward from those mistakes. I don't want her to see a perfect woman, because I am not perfect. What I want her to see is a mother who is not afraid to repent and ask for forgiveness when she inevitably fails. What I want her to see is a mother who tries, even if she falls short. What I want her to see is that she has a Father in heaven who she can always rely on.

I will teach her to love, to be kind to all she meets, and to hold her head high, as she is a precious daughter of God.

What I will NOT teach her is hatred and judgement towards others who are different from her, or who live a different lifestyle.

Welcome to our journey, welcome to our life.

We love you.

Tabitha + Mini-Me
