I’m Sheila Chester—a writer, mom of three, humorist, and storyteller who has been writing about life as I’ve lived it for more than a decade.

Go back as far as you want, reader. It’s been a ride.

The early years get pretty intense—infertility, adoption, IVF, grief, and building the family I prayed for. Then came a spiritual awakening, a whole lot of questioning, and the unraveling and rebuilding of what I believed about myself, God, and the world.

These days, you’ll find a lot more comedic storytelling about marriage, motherhood, reinvention, and the general absurdity of being human.

These posts span more than ten years of my life. I’ve changed. My beliefs have changed. My writing has changed. Thankfully, my sense of humor has survived all of it.

Enjoy the ride.
