Wow. I feel like I should start this in some special, meaningful way since this is my "debut" post on my new blog.
Hello, Bon Jour, Hola, 'Sup, Yo... uhm, nevermind. Let's just get to it...
So, I've never had a blog before - I'm not even good at writing in a journal. But I feel like I have so much to say sometimes - ask my kids or husband. I have been contemplating doing this for sometime now. I went back and forth - I don't have time, no one wants to hear what I have to say, etc. etc. I ultimately decided I would do it and just try to have fun with it. If for nothing else - for me.
I've thought a lot about my expectations and hopes for this blog. I think my number one goal is just to share my life with others. Its not something I very openly do. Yes, my inner circle knows me and what I do - but I generally do not open up very much. God has shown me that I need to share His blessings in our life more than what I do. I want to tell how He has brought us through some very difficult experiences happening just this year. He is truly the reason we have made it through this year and I am grateful!! That will be for another post... haha
The little "about me" paragraph at the top of the blog is some of the topics I want to talk about. They are my life. They are my values. I think there are enough that it will keep me busy. I want to share inspiration that I see around me, the everyday moments that crack me up, and hopefully just another voice to let others know they are not alone in this crazy thing we call life. There have been times I wondered if I was the only one going through a certain thing. Mothers need to unite and lift each other up!! As a mother of 2 tweens and a teen... I feel like there needs to be a support group now more than ever. Up all night with a screaming kid?? That was nothing. Can I get an Amen, fellow moms??
What you won't find here is someone always using correct grammar, being politically-correct, a gripe session or someone dishing out advice. I merely want to share experiences in my life. What you do with it is up to you. And I don't want anyone judging me. Variety is the spice of life, ya know?
So with that being said.... here goes nothing....
