About statements are so hard to write, how to we summarize that which makes up our whole being in a few short paragraphs? I have never particularly felt a need for labels. I am, and can only be, myself. Still there are a few titles that I do not mind.

I am a wife. Michael and I were handfasted on June 23rd, 2007. I love Michael for all that he is and because he loves me for all that I am (and am not!) Though we have our ups and downs we share the same dreams and will reach them together because we make an amazing team.

I am a mother. It is the most challenging job in the world, but well worth it for all the rewards it brings. My son, Damian, was born at the Spokane Midwives birth center and he is the precious shining star in our lives. I am an attached parent and am a natural birth advocate.

I am a crafter. It is my dream job. There is something that lives deep inside me which calls out to be allowed to create. It wants to learn, to grow, to live life to it’s fullest. If I do not let it out I become a very cranky scary person indeed.

I am a child of the Wild Old Mama Earth. I was on this path which for a long time before I realized that there others walking the way with me. Some might call me a Pagan or a Witch, and I don’t mind, as long as they are said free of hate. We are so blessed to have this tiny planet to call home and it is our duty to take care of her.

I love my life and I love to laugh. I love the sunrise and set, the passings of the moon, the flowing of a river, the changing aspects of nature and the simple joys life has to offer. I love the feeling of being a small part in a whole.

Thus far life has been quite the journey and I know there is much more self-discovery to come. I am blessed to have my husband, my friends, the spirits and my guides along this wanderlusting way.

Live with Inspiration,
