My First Post!

Hi! Welcome to Honest Essentials, I'm so happy that your here! Bare with me, especially since this is my first post! Well anyways how should I start this off... My name is Ashley and I'm happily married to my husband Charlie 10/15/11. He is by far the sweetest most caring man I have ever met. Ive known my husband for 10 years and we started off as friends (I'll get into that in another post!). We have 3 wonderful children. Our first born (girl) will be 3 this August, our second babe (boy) is almost a year and a half, and our third baby (who is currently referred to as "baby number 3" (girl) is due August 20, 2016. Yep you got it right... that's 3 babies in 3 years!! Just say a prayer for me and we will all be on our merry way!... Just kidding...really though life can get pretty chaotic, but having my own family is the biggest blessing and answered prayer I have ever had. Totally worth every crazy moment! ...and they do say it gets easier, right?

 I pretty much started Honest Essentials as a side hobby, a little piece of time for "me". My mom introduced me to Young Living Essential Oils, and I have been obsessed hooked ;) ever since. I wanted to create a blog that focused on the "Honest Essentials" of life like family, God, food, tips and tricks, and of course Young Living Essential Oils. Using essential oils has opened my eyes to living a life with less harmful chemicals and instead, replacing them with more of the natural resources God has given us on the Earth.

The truth is I wasn't so excited to jump on the bandwagon of essential oils from the start. You know when your mom or an elder recommends something to you, and you just kind of ignore their advice, to later find out they were right the whole time? Yeah that was me -when my mom created a cream for my almost 3 year old daughter for the terrible eczema that was covering her legs, creeping up onto her arms, back and stomach . It was made from coconut, tea tree and lavender oil, and within months the eczema was completely gone! That's why I'm here. Typing this from my bedroom at almost 12 at night while my husband sleeps next to me, to get the word out to everyone on how to live a more whole life.

I'm excited that your here!
