Welcome friends! Whether we’ve known each other for years, a day, or have never met face to face, I am so glad you are here. My name is Angela Renae Sanders. I am a mom of three individually unique girls. I home school, and before you go running for the hills, I am probably not the picture you got in your mind when you read that word. I would describe my home school style as a bit modern and unconventional. I’ll explain that in a future post.
I am also the wife of the funniest man I’ve ever known. Seriously, the guy could have been a comedian. From the crazy faces and things he can do with his eyes, to his whimsical take on life even during serious times, he keeps me laughing, and sane. We are a musical family, and each of us play at least one instrument and sing. We’ve been able to do some gigs as a family band, which has been so fun and has strengthened our family bond in many ways.
I am currently on a weight loss journey as well, and have lost over 40 pounds in the last 20 weeks. I have a long way to go, but want to share the highs and lows that come with getting healthy over 40. I plan to share so many things, from the tips and tricks I’ve learned from teaching my kids, parenting, wife’ing (that should be a word but I know it’s not), throwing parties (another love of mine), cooking delicious but healthy meals for my family, to the emotional healing I’ve experienced in spite of past traumas and illness. I plan to open, honest, and real.
In the past I have been pretty reserved with sharing things I hold close to my heart, but I am ready to open up and let others in. If my failures and successes can help other women feel empowered, motivated, and encouraged, then the vulnerability this journey requires will have been worth it. I sure hope you stick around and join me on this new adventure!
xoxo,
Angela Renae
