My name is Mindy May.
Right now I am in a very unique place in my life. I have just turned 30 years old and I am finishing my undergraduate degree in elementary education. I have always wanted to become a teacher but I never thought that dream would come true. Then two years ago I quit my full time job and went back to school full time. I love taking classes and doing homework. It is just amazing to think that in less than 6 months I will be a college graduate.
When I am not working on homework I am taking care of my son, Jacob. He is a super active 2nd grader whom I love with all my heart. He plays soccer and loves learning new soccer tricks. Jacob is a sweet and loving boy. I often find notes left around the house telling me how beautiful I am and how much he loves me. Jacob struggles with ADHD and we are currently trying herbal medications to control his behavior. Hopefully this summer we are going to try a gluten and casin-free diet to also help him out.
I am dating a wonderful man named Dan. We have been together for almost three years and he is more than I could have ever asked for. He also has an 8 year old son, Christian. We are trying to blend our families and parenting styles together but some days it proves to be difficult.
I love God and enjoy going to church on Sundays. I fell away from the church about 10 years ago and I am trying to renew my faith and trust in Him with all things. Some days it seems easy to turn to Him with worries and past hurts and other days it seems like I am fighting with myself.
Also, I am trying to be crafty. I love taking photographs and I am trying to take better photos. I look through photography blogs to get tips and tricks that I can use. I am also teaching myself to sew. So far I have made my kitchen curtains and two bags. I am hoping to learn more and I am constantly looking at creative blogs to help me with tutorials.
If there are tips and tricks that I learn or find out work for me I am more than willing to share them with you. If you want to contact me for any reason please do so at MindyMayW {at} gmails {dot} com. I would love to hear from you.
So that is me ... in a nutshell ... for now.
