Madison's Mom

Being called Mom is my greatest blessing.
— me

Why did I call my blog “Madison’s Mom”? Well, of course one reason is, obviously, that Madison, (aka Madi Jo), is my youngest daughter. She is the one that made me a full-fledged Momma. Her older sister, Riann, gave me some practice in being a step-mom, but I came into her life after the diaper and sleepless night stages. All of the “from the start/beginning” Momma stuff was new to me.

The next reason is that when I was younger, my friends wouldn’t call my Mom by her real name or Mrs. Wheeler…it was Melanie’s Mom. “Hey, are you Melanie’s Mom?” or “Look, it’s Melanie’s Mom.” I didn’t think much about it when I was younger, other than I thought it was funny.

Madi goes to preschool a few times a week. Now that I’m a mom of a toddler that goes to preschool, I’ve heard a new title for myself from her friends when I pick her up. It’s not Mrs. Geyman or Melanie, but “Madi’s Mom.” So now, I get to hear “Madi, your Mom is here!” and “Look, it’s Madi’s Mom!” And let me tell you, that is the best title I believe I can ever have. ❤️❤️

Love, Mel (aka Madi’s Mom)

Introducing myself and why I’m going to write about my life.

Most of you all already know me- whether it’s from school, work, church, or through others. I’m not the best at talking about myself or my life, so bear with me.

Why am I blogging?

I’m a wife and a mom, so I have plenty of stories to share and memories I’d like to remember. I’m a stay at home mom at the moment, but will be going back into the working world soon. I’ll miss staying home with my little lady, but we have bigger plans in the works.

I like to spend time with family and friends, watch sports, and am trying to get myself back in better shape. I like baking and have started a little side business making dog treats–(Madison Treats on fb).

I look forward to sharing more about my past, present, and future. Some stories will be harder to tell, but I feel it will help me heal and help me remember how I got to where I am today. So follow me if you’d like to laugh, cry, and shake your head at this small town wife and momma.

Love, Mel
