I first began this blog as a way to document my life and count daily blessings in the form of a gratitude journal. After suffering from postpartum depression following the birth of my second child, I needed a positive outlet to express my fluctuating emotions and share daily struggles to balance my role as a woman and mother (hence the sometimes dark & confused posts during 2011-2013).
For the longest time, this blog was my little secret and I shied away from sharing them with others, even my own family.
I owe many breakthroughs and revelations to this blog and I'm now a HAPPY and GRATEFUL mother of two beautiful girls named Elise and Tessa (Hence the name Angelissa= Angela + Elise + Tessa). Today, I blog about my real mommy stories at www.mommy-diary.com.
As a mommy blogger, I like to write honest stories about motherhood, pregnancy, labor, postpartum and special needs parenting. I also write reflective stories about womanhood because all mothers are women, after all.
I love your this so much, Angela! So happy you found my blog and led me here! We do seem to be kindred spirits and I can't wait to follow along. :)
