She Speaks in every issue Reflection Images by Tracy Rowell MORGAN OLTREMARI on Baby Love B eing a mom was always a dream of mine. Motherhood has brought much joy, along with some exhaustion. Nothing else has ever made me as happy or as frus trated. It has been more challenging and rewarding than I ever imagined. Despite the daily challenges of motherhood, the snuggles before a nap and seeing Alexa Leigh smile because I’m her mom makes it all worth it. She has made me fall more in love with my husband each day, as I have watched him become an amazing dad. It’s a beautiful thing when God blesses you with a child; He knows how to fill your heart with more love than ever. Morgan Oltremari resides in Florence, South Carolina, with her husband Brett and their baby girl, Alexa Leigh. Morgan is an administrative assistant and flight coordinator for Sonoco. 54 FEBRUARY 2016 SHEMAGAZINE.COM
