Welcome to my blog...I guess.

So I guess I will start this thing off by telling all you readers (or just random net space) a little about me.
First, I'm in my 20s. Not the early ones. I can't tell you how much getting closer to that little 3-0 freaks me out.
Second, I have 2 children. One is 4. He is a sweet little monster. Busy, curious, crazy smart, into everything, and a total joy and pain in my butt all the time. The other is just shy of 3 months at this point. Not sure who he is yet, but we're figuring each other out. So far I know he is shyer than his brother was at this age, more relaxed, and much more into being snuggled. Maybe a budding introvert? I guess we'll see.
Third, I'm married. This is a fairly recent development, although my husband and I have known each other for almost half our lives now. We've been living together for 8 years but decided we should just make it official last year. People say our kids look like him..or me depending on who you ask or who is closest to the child in question.
I could go on and on about my family, but they'll certainly come up again and I don't want to give it all away right now. So...
Fourth, I'm a student. I'm about halfway through my Bachelor of Science in Human Services degree. Maybe a little more than halfway. After I finish that I'll get my Master of Social Work degree. Probably. I've learned that it's best if I just leave things as general ideas of plans rather than certainties.
Maybe you're asking: "Why those degrees?" Well...that would bring you to the
Fifth, I have a deep commitment to service to those in need. I remember as a child feeling so terrible for those who were homeless, poor(or poorer than we were anyway. We were poor, but I didn't realize it until I was older), or struggling in general. It would break my heart to think we couldn't just wave a wand and make these people's lives better. So that's what I want to do, help make people's lives better. I could go on and on about that too, but like my family it will almost certainly come up again.
Sixth (last?) I have always enjoyed writing. When I was a little girl I just loved putting stuff down on paper. Nothing was cooler than making a shape and having that shape mean something beyond itself. After all, letters are just shapes but stick them with a few of their friends and you get meaning. It's pretty cool. I write sporadically for the most part now, I'm too busy to make it a habit, but I'm hoping this blog helps with that.
So that's that....if you follow along, you'll likely get a hodgepodge of thoughts, ideas, events, and other assorted randomness. Enjoy!
