This blog is a personal space for me to record my daily adventures as a stay at home mother of two.
Hi, I'm Ruth!
I'm a stay at home mother of two, born in the Midwest, living in Downeast Maine.
I'm married to my best friend J. We have two girls - 'Loula-Bell', who is 4 years and 'Moo', who is 18 months.
BK (before kids), I worked in a number of jobs within the retail industry at the store and corporate level. I spent most of my time at the corporate offices of a big box retailer that sports a big red bullseye.
Now I'm a stay at home mom! It's challenging and dang hard work :) but the salary and benefits outnumber any job I've ever had. My days are full of laughter, sometimes tears, but always satisfying and inspiring!
Minerva Pray - American Pie - By Michael Lee West
"Simple pleasures is the key to life, you see. Planting lettuce. Rooting wild violets. Making grape jelly in August. Growing your own parsley and thyme. Hanging wet sheets on the line, feeling them slap against your legs like your own personal breeze. Hearing your mama tell you about when she was a girl and when HER mama was a girl, all the way back to Eve and the apple tree. Like I used to tell my Ruthie, While you're busy making your grocery lists and planning your schedules, real life is happening. And you know what, child? It sure enough is."
