I have a special place in my heart for Valentine's Day and it may not be for the reason you would suspect either. The 'L' word has very little to do with it...
3 years ago, just before Christmas, I got laid off. The company I worked for lost a big account, as a result I lost my job and found myself trying to figure out how to adapt to life at home.
Though I had always wanted to be a stay at home mom, the shock of it occurring on someone else's terms left me feeling unprepared and being eliminated from a company I had worked at for years shook my confidence.
Thanks to the many amazing blogs that are out there, I found a creative outlet that had otherwise gone untapped. These blogs inspired me, challenged me and gave me hope. As a result I felt like a more confident and capable mom and wife.
Eventually, this led to the birth of While Wearing Heels...
I can now look back on what was a devastating blow and see the blessings that resulted. I adore being home making memories with my beautiful daughter, naughty little dog and thoughtful husband and sharing some of the fun we are having through While Wearing Heels.
So I humbly thank you for reading my blog and I wish you a very happy Valentine's day.
