Happy Monday and welcome to our third week of MOTW! Last Friday I blindfolded myself and randomly drew a name from my glass bowl and this weeks Mom of the week iswolfraine
What's your name?
Heather Anne
How did you come up with your username:
Wolfraine is the name I have used for gosh- 15 years now. When I first joined AOL I was designing a username and this is what came out. I love wolves and wanted wolfreign- the reign of the wolves. Well believe it or not that was taken so it became wolfraine (raine without the e was also taken-sigh) I have used the name for everything now.
Can you describe yourself personality wise?
I am generally outgoing and friendly. I love to have fun and such. There are times that I can be moody but can't we all? LOL.
Where are you from?
Born and raised in NJ. We moved here two years ago- the August I turned 28. Honestly I love it down here and though I miss Jersey, I will never go back. I have fit in here so well for the most part that my family jokes with me how I was a southerner born in the wrong state.
Tell us a little bit about your family:
I'm married to Brian who is an LEO. We met in EMT school 8 years ago and married 6 years ago. We have 3 angels and one son named Wyatt who is going on 4. I have a sister and brother and he has one brother. Our parents are all still living and doing well!
How did you find TM?
Carolina Parent magazine
What is your favorite forum in TM and why?
I don't really have a fave. I kind of have my specifics that I go to which are MF, RFF, SW/CR, first responders and of course my forum Mothers with Special needs
What do you like best about TM?
The friendships and the support. Considering there are over 2000 mothers on this site, its quite amazing how even with kinks there is so much utter support through the site. It never ceases to amaze me.
Can you share your favorite memory of your child(ren)
The first time Wyatt ever told me he loved me on his own. I was sitting on my bed going through something or other and Wyatt walked into my room. He comes over and gives me a hug. He then looks up at me and says "mommy, I wuv you!" I swear I was ready to cry
Are you a part of a committee or leadership on TM and if yes, what do you like about it?
After about 6 months of membership I joined the hospitality committee. I then moved into Events when I became the WW K12 planner. After about 6-7 months or so we moved from WW to SW/CR. I hung on for anothe rmonth but then switched areagroups and became SW/CR all ages planner. After another 5 months I gave it all up. I needed a break. I just recently now became the MSN (Mothers with special needs) Moderator. I love being a support group Mod because it gives me a chance to really help instill the support others need and also to help create and continue the safe haven we have.
If you could tell everyone on TM one random thing about you what would it be?
I have one honest fear and that is house centipedes! They will make me run screaming and crying from a room!
