Who is chosen wife life?
I’m a Navy-veteran who served as an enlisted Sailor for 8 years as a linguist, technically, for 7 years and 11 months. That was the longest career I held, other than being a student in the American public school system. I attribute a huge chunk of my personal growth and healing to being in the Navy. The Navy broke me down and then gave me the opportunities to build me back up.
I’m now a stay-at-home mom to my adopted son, K. I’m so blessed to have such a wonderful son in my life. God gave me this once-in-a-lifetime chance to be a mom; and, I’m so thankful for it because I knew I always wanted to be a mom, but I was too scared to do it. I believe that God thought I was ready to take on the duties of loving and caring for my son even though I didn’t feel I was at the time I met him.
I’m also a loving partner to J. It was through the Navy that I met my beloved. He is my rock. I love serving him as his wife while he loves being my husband in Christ. Every day I learn how to become a better partner to him so that he and I can thrive as a Christian couple. I help him to get closer to the Lord while he helps me become a better wife, mom, and Christian. He’s really that amazing.
I never understood how I could serve the Lord since I was so busy serving my country. I have now taken it upon myself to serve the Lord by sharing my Christian growth through Chosen Wife Life.
I established Chosen Wife Life to share my Christian journey with you so that I can hold myself accountable and document my growth. God gifts me with wonderful opportunities to grow into a better mom, wife, and servant of the Lord every day. I just can’t help but to share my miracle stories!
Who is k.?
This is my son. I adopted him only because he wanted me to be his mom. I wanted to be his mom when I first met him, but I never wanted to force that onto him. I never expected he would ask me to be his mom within 1.5 days of knowing him! That was one of the best days of my life. I was so blessed I earned his trust, love, and respect for him to accept me as his mom. K. has been my son for the past 3.5 years and will always forever be my son.
He’s truly a boy’s boy, as his teacher says repeatedly. I can’t blame her for saying that because he loves running, biking, building, and hitting…tennis balls. He loves playing tennis and aims to get better-and-better each day. He’s an avid lover of dinosaurs, too. Dino nuggets, books, plushies, PJs, toys, and etc. are all his favorites. He’s either going to be a paleontologist or a star tennis player when he grows up.
I love him. He’s my son and I’m his mom. The bond I have with K. is so spectacular. I look forward to becoming a better mom for him every day because he deserves it. He also deserves his privacy; that is why I will not be showing his whole face or side profile. I want to share my experiences with him, but not his identity because I’m trying not to be a Sharent.
All about J.
He is the best daddy and husband in Christ I never knew I would have in my life. God answered my prayers after having poor luck in my dating life. He is such a wonderful dad, too! He has a solid plan to raise our son to be a good man. He’s stern yet loving; silly yet serious when it is required; gentle yet extremely protective when a threat arises.
I look forward to serving him as his wife by being as compatible with him as much as possible. He performs his duty as the man of the house, while it is my duty to serve and respect him. Do I do a good job being a doting wife to him? Sometimes. My fiery temper gets the best of me at times, but I do try to be the best wife I can be for him since he is always giving his 100% to the family every day.
He’s so supportive of me in my endeavors of making Chosen Wife Life a success. In fact, he gives me ideas on how I can make the experience even better. Yes, I listen to his advice because I wouldn’t be here blogging about my growth in Christ if he weren’t in my life.
