Hello, my name is Hope and I am so happy we found each other!
I am a wife and mother of three boys 21, 16, and 7 years old, and YouTuber @MyLifeFullOfHope. I know what you thinking, they are really spread apart! Well, I was a teen, single mom that met my husband on Match.com and we had a son. Years later after several miscarriages and having a stillborn baby girl named Jasmine, we gave birth to our youngest son. I know that was a lot!
Over the years I have learned through experience and wanted to share my experiences on being a teen, single and married mother. How to deal with the loss of miscarriage and stillborn. How to juggle life as a new working mom, blending our family and kids with different age ranges.
After losing our Angel babies I have learned to capture every single moment in life, so I enjoy creating memorable party celebrations and holidays for my family on a budget. I simply love to share those celebrations and DIYs with you. Something about creating with creativity and with my hands makes me so happy and relieves stress. Sharing my experiences as a YouTuber, so that others that are inspired to create a channel of their own and would do so without hesitation. Yay!
I asked the Lord years ago to show me my purpose and passion. It did not happen overnight, but little did I know it was there the entire time and He was birthing them in that very moment of me asking Him. Years later I decided to turn that camera on and started my channel which has been a huge blessing for me. I started and still continue to post to my channel for fun and as a creative outlet.
Years later able to make a small income off it, just enough to purchase groceries for the family. As a stay-at-home mom, I wanted to contribute to the household and the Lord answered my prayer. Now I want to share more through my blog of lifestyle experiences and challenges the helped me along the way.
As a young married couple, our money was extremely tight for years. I have learned over the years how to stretch a dollar, from having $20 for groceries for a week for our family or $5.00 for one meal to get us to payday. I will share with you how to extend your grocery, clothing, and home decor budgets.
Cooking meals for my ever-hungry, growing boys on a grocery budget.
Meanwhile continuing on my weight loss journey after having bariatric surgery the vertical gastrectomy (also known as VSG) and juggling everyone’s preferences. Doing something for myself of this magnitude was vital for me as an individual, wife, mother, sister, and daughter. Taking care of everyone’s needs somehow I forgot about mine in the process. I am sure as parents and caretakers we can relate!
I loss hope! Although my name is Hope, I always felt like I had to have so much hope and be optimistic about everything. No one told me this. I just felt like if my name was Hope I had to be Hopeful about everything in life. In actuality, my Mother named me Hope because it was her maiden name and she was not ready to give it up quite yet. LOL!
Nevertheless, I always had very little of it growing up in the back of my mind. Now with the growth and life experiences I have discovered to Always be Hopeful and to Embrace Life with Expectancy!
I know we are going to grow and learn from each other. Most of all have so much fun together and become great friends! Thanks so much for joining me!
