Hi all!
I'm Ashley! I'm a Daughter of the King of Kings, a wife to my amazing husband Brian who is a Psychiarist, and a mother to our two girls, Scarlett (6) and Isla (2). Though I'm a mental health therapist by training, God has steered me towards my true calling...full time wife and mommy and Christian Blogger/Writer. My family and I have settled down in Bowling Green, Kentucky. We absolutely love this town.
I grew up as an only child in the small town of Shelbyville, Kentucky. My childhood was the absolute BEST thanks to my parents, extended family, and friends. God sure knew what He was doing when he gave me my people.
I'm my Daddy's daughter for sure. He taught me so much about faith in God, walking with Jesus, and just how to be a good and loving person. My heart was shattered last year (July 2018) when my Daddy was called Home to Jesus after a four month battle with Stomach Cancer. So much of him lives within me and I am already seeing parts of him in my daughters.
My Mom and my grandmothers taught me how to be the faithful wife and mommy that I am today. My mother is the strongest woman I know! She lost not only my dad last year, but lost her mother (my Granny) less than two months later. Over the years, I watched not only my mom but my grandmothers. They were all loving and selfless. I hope that I make them so proud!
My friends have taught me so much about loyalty and loving others. Many of my friends today are still my friends from my childhood. We've seen each other through life's toughest of times and through the happiest of times. Though we don't get to see each other regularly, we never seem to miss a beat. I've gained many friends along the way as well. They've taught me that the length of the friendship doesn't determine the closeness. All of my closest friends have become like sisters (and brother) to this only child.
I met my husband through mutual friends (though we worked in the same company) on a blind date. I know people may think we are crazy, but it truly was love at first sight. Every day since then I've fallen deeper and deeper in love. He's truly the man of my dreams and the most loving and supportive man I've ever known. We've been together for over ten years and married for almost eight of those. We're still as mushy-gushy as ever, and he still gives me butterflies.
Our two girls are our two little firecrackers. They have strong and stubborn personalities, but these two little miracles have taught me a lot about love and about God's grace. I'm so blessed that God chose me to be their Mommy. I am trying my best daily to make sure they always know how much I love them and that Jesus loves them even more that Momma does.
I hope that you'll follow me on my writing journey. While I'm a Faithful Mommy, I enjoy writing about other aspects of life aside from motherhood. By following this blog, you'll see many topics discussed and hopefully you'll find many posts along the way that are relatable to you. Love to all of you!
Love,
