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!
