I was reminded this week of one of the nicknames I've acquired over time. It's one that wears me out just typing it: Wonder Woman. I've been able to do a lot of wonderful things during my relatively short life. I've been blessed, but sometimes it's exhausting trying to live up to people's expectation that I am Wonder Woman.
