The Fire Wife Life

If you’re married to someone who serves your community or your country, you know what it’s like to sacrifice life as normal for the benefit of those around you. As a fire wife for nearly 25 years, I know firsthand what it looks like to put your priorities, desires and wishes for life aside for the demand of a job! This has been our life, but the journey, though hard has formed us in so many ways to know what it’s like to adapt in the moment, and create happiness wherever you are however, you can life as a fire wife has meant life in the fire many times figuratively speaking but much like fire. The refining process always creates a beauty that can’t be denied in this episode. I speak with my husband who shares his heart transparently what it’s like to fight fires, and also have a heart that fights for your family, and to live by values and principles. It’s never been perfect but we’ve always been purposeful in creating the intentional life that we crave that creates an open space of communication and relationships that are personal and unique to our way of life. Summers have never look like big vacations but we always try and squeeze in sweet and simple times together that keep a smiling! For us that has meant trips to Lake Powell at every agent stage of our children’s life! May you be inspired to embrace the life God has given you, and you are unique calling to live the journey you are on! Serving others feeds the soul!
