The Broughton Home

Tonight, I had my eyes opened to one of my true riches in life. I was stressed all day, about things that are outside my illusion of control. Thank God, a meeting was planned for tonight, and despite my rolling emotions, I went. I have 3 of the best friends anyone could ask for. I was able to vent my little problems away, and they would just listen, or share a similar story. Just to know that I'm not alone, and that we'll survive, and that life can be good despite the speed bumps is so reassuring and liberating! Friends are SO underestimated in a married woman's life... even more so in a Mother's life. Friends are the ones who hold you up when you think you can't take another step, and they share your burden... even when they have their own to carry.

Hello Everyone, I've mainly started a blog because I want to keep up with people, and I figure they would like to keep up with me. Though, I frequently feel like other people are moving faster than me... until I look at my girls and realize they aren't the babies I was holding just yesterday! Sad. Well, a quick catch up. Jon and I have been married for a little over 5.5 years, we have Adin who will be 5, Kera who will be 4, and Miya who just turned 2! We lived in Phoenix for about 4 years, and now live in Pahrump. I love it here, and wouldn't want to be anywhere else.... except for Cannon Beach, Oregon.. but only for vacation. I'm going to be an aunt to a nephew in November, and I couldn't be more excited about that! I hope he's named Benjamin. Well, I'll do my best to keep this up, and I hope I get lots and lots of readers!!! HA, not even. I just hope those who love me and my family get the info they desire out of my crazy rambling writings! Lov...
