Transformation- {Sneak Peak}

Being a mother is a complicated- beautiful thing.
Wearing your heart outside of your body, and watching it grow with your children.

Being a mother is more than a title, more than a calling. It's a transformation.  One of the most incredible transformations we, as women, can ever make.  You aren't the same person after you've become a mother.  No matter what happens from the point that little life starts growing inside you- you are different.  You are changed.  For the better.

When To Each Their Own began, we were a mom blog.
Six mothers- sharing their lives, their thoughts, and experiences.
Our hearts were full- and we found ourselves overwhelmed with topics we wanted to cover- concepts we wanted to address.  We were doing what mothers do best- wearing our hearts on our sleeves.

As we posted, and new weekly topics were proposed, we began to feel the tone of our blog transforming.
The messages we had were of great meaning and importance to us, as mothers, but they were also meaningful on another level- as women.

Receiving feedback from our readers- we quickly found we weren't just reaching the "mom" demographic we had originally been aiming for.  We were reaching all kinds of readers.

Mothers
Sisters
Daughters
Teachers
Friends
Caregivers
Young Women
Newly Weds
Single Women
Older Women

While we ourselves are all mothers- we are also something else.  Women.  Motherhood is an incredibly critical and intricate part of our identity as women, so that element will certainly not be lost from our posts.
However- we are quickly realizing that being a "mother" does not always mean you have cheerios in your shoes and Hotwheels in your purse.  It means you have integrity. Selflessness. Love.

Being a mother means you put the well-being of someone else before the well-being of yourself.  It means you think carefully about what you say and do effects those around you, and how. (Even if it's only after the fact!)  These things are all innate qualities of women.  Qualities that we are working to grow and develop.

We hope that To Each Their Own can be an inspiration to all women- not just women with children of their own.  We hope our readers will feel uplifted and encouraged after reading our experiences.  We all have our own paths- our own unique point of view.  Even with six authors and occasional guest authors- we can't possibly hope to convey every perspective, but in our posts we can share our shoes and let you wear them if even for just a little while.

The new To Each Their Own will have a mini-relaunch on Monday  September 16th.

We hope that you will join us on our journey through life and Womanhood.
