Welcome to Traversing the Tests.

This is a new venture that I am embarking on with my daughter, Rebekah.

This started as a challenge to help me relate to my two tween daughters.

I started a blog as she has experience, like anyone in her generation, very computer savvy.

We were going through a rough patch, I was too busy with work and life, not giving my two daughters the attention they needed from Mom.

I was too focused on getting through each day, week, month.

I lost myself during this time, my happiness, sense of personal purpose.

When challenged earlier this year, to talk about Teresa, I was quick to talk about Dr. Thomas, Mrs. Kelly, Rebekah and Tabitha’s mother.

When I was refocused to talk about Teresa, I found I couldn’t really say anything and I burst into tears.

This started me on a self-discovery journey. One I am sure a lot of people can relate to.

I realized that I was being tested on many different fronts.

This blog was created to give me, and hopefully you as well, an outlet to embrace this new landscape.

I intend to use this space as a journal, share my thoughts on life, love, parenting, faith, family and all forms of wellness, including physical, emotional and spiritual.
