Adventures CAH

I Would Sell My Soul.

Have you ever made a deal, plea or promise to the greater powers for a wish to come true? You close your eyes tight, talk out loud and pray to see a sign that your wish will be granted. You wish with all your body and soul. Your heart hurts because you know that your wish HAS to be granted.

You wait. You pray. You promise ANYTHING if it would grant you your wish. I would sell my heart and soul if I knew that my children would be kept out of harms way.

And I did. Last night. I made promise after promise about what I would do if my wish was answered. There was no negotiating. I offered up everything I had, begged and pleaded.

My wish, our prayers have been answered. Jake is doing so much better. We are talking, laughing, crying and planning. Planning all the things I said we would do. Or that I would do… For him, for them.

As parents, our most prized possession is our children. We do anything it takes to keep our kids happy, healthy and here, where they belong.

Meet Marisa Langford (A.K.A. The Tampa Mama)

Marisa Langford is the founder of the Adventures of Tampa Mama Blog, a blog that guides parents around the city (and beyond) to the best places for kids and families along with a realistic view from her life raising a large family. She is a working Mom of four, a wife of 20 years and is carefully juggling a full-time career in experiential marketing through her own agency (Langford Marketing Group), leading Girl Scouts, a 4-H Club and all the chaos that goes along with a family of 6.

With kids off to college and still at home, she balances life as best as possible, with the mantra of just wanting to raise good humans. Marisa is a speaker, influencer, and passionate about raising up others, helping others along the way and having fun while doing it. She partners with brands that share her passion for healthy living, on the go fun and family togetherness. In this personal blog, Marisa writes about motherhood, family travel, how to manage a household of 6, and of course all the fun places to go (as living in Florida is like living on a permanent vacation.) She has a daughter who is a Type 1 Diabetic and 3 children with rare medical conditions.

Marisa has been publishing content for over 20 years online. She has bylines in Huffington Post, Where Traveler, Parents.com, the Today Show Parenting Blog, Trekaroo and many more. She writes teen content for parents in Tampa Bay Parenting Magazine, and for other in print and online publications.
