Three Words

I don’t need to be perfect.  I only need to Just.Be.Enough.

I came across the website Just.Be.Enough through another blogging friend, and I immediately knew that I found something special.  I even wrote a post for a linkup last month called I Can at Just.Be.Enough.  This post was about empowering myself and challenging myself to be the best mother I can while not losing myself in the process.

When I learned that Elena at Just.Be.Enough was in search of new contributors, I submitted my favorite posts and hoped I might have what she was looking for.  And apparently I did!

I gratefully accepted an invitation to become a permanent contributor for Just.Be.Enough for 2013!  Our first assignment was to come up with our own three words that will be the focus of our writing and “journey” if you will for 2013.  I chose the words heal, support, and balance.

I am still grieving the loss of my daughter Kathryn.  I can’t imagine a time in my life when I won’t grieve her loss.  But this year I want my focus to be on healing.  Through this journey I also developed an appreciation of how important support is.  I want to provide support for other women and mothers as was done for me.  I guess you could say I am paying it backwards!  And as I tackle all of my ambitions associated with healing and supporting, loving and growing, advocating and writing, I must find balance.  Especially since priority number one is my three little munchkins!

I am not the only new member of the team.  Elena has assembled an amazing group of women and writers and I hope you’ll stop by and visit us.  You can meet the team here.

Come join us and Just.Be.Enough!
