Here's Kelly then and now!
 |
Kelly is in 1/3 MOPS and this is her first year as a DGL. She and her husband have a little boy and a baby on the way.
Do you have a favorite Halloween tradition or memory from your childhood?
My mom made our costumes every year. Nothing was ever too difficult for her to make and now having my own children, I appreciate it so much more. She made it fun and lots of love went into those costumes.

Meet Kelly's table!

Each person was asked this question:
What was the biggest adjustment that you had to make when you became a mom?
 |
| KELLY: Planning life around someone else's schedule other than mine, and saying no to things that I would have previously jumped at the opportunity to say yes to. |
 |
| MENTOR MOM (and Kelly's mom!)- LORI: Everything!! :) The biggest adjustment was not realizing how my heart could grow so much and love another human being that way. |
 |
| MELANY: Being responsible for another human...the worry, the care and the intense love and connection I have with my babies. |
 |
SARAH B: I would say sleep! I used to love to stay up late and sleep in before I had kids. But now I've traded it for bedtime stories and saying prayers at night which is well worth it!
|
 |
| WENDY: No more sleeping in! I didn't realize how much I put my needs above the needs of others, and having a child really showed me that. |
 |
| JULIE: Realizing that suddenly I couldn't go anywhere without taking this child with me! |
 |
| STACY: Having only 5 minutes to get ready, smelling like spit up, and having constant conversation. |
 |
| SARAH M |
 |
| SARAH C: The biggest adjustment has been learning to happily adjust the family's schedule with each new kid. |
