About Me

My photo
Jess
Welcome! I'm a special education teacher, a writer, a reader, a gardener, a wife -- and living a beautiful life after loss. We resolved without parenting after nearly 8 years of trying to build our family through IVF, donor gametes, and domestic infant adoption. After 10+ years blogging as "My Path to Mommyhood," shifting to "Finding a Different Path" explores and celebrates our authentic reality -- rebuilding our life and living, happily, without the children we wanted. Thank you for joining me!
