Yep. That's right.

I am sitting here wondering why I have a blog.  I don't have much amazing to share.  I'm about as unaccomplished a gal as you'll find.  Heaven knows this won't be about my amazing knowledge of....anything.  And it certainly won't be about crafts.  I'm not a "couponer" ( is that what you call them?), so you can forget about saving money.   I WISH it were about decorating, but history has shown that if my house is looking put together--there must be a "For Sale" sign in the yard.  While I am a homeschool mom, I am the first to say that I  am not a "homeschool mom".  You may find an occasional lesson God is trying very hard to teach me, but I am no devotional writer or theologian.  Recipes are nice, but nope, I'll leave that to the professionals.  And if you are hoping for tips on organizing, well I can provide lots of "before shots".   So why AM I doing this?  Honestly, I am doing this for fun.  For me.  For Ryan. ( Because for some reason he wants me to.)  There is something satisfying to me by sorting through my life with written words--of finding humor where I can and acknowledging God's sovereign hand in the twists and turns.  It is delightful to recount the joys of motherhood and the spice of marriage.   While I am acquainted with the ordinary, the unspectacular, I am surprised by the fulfillment and the beauty, the laughter that has accompanied it.  So.....I'm gonna blog.

  1. I can't wait. I like to think of my blog as a journal of my life. Pictures and stories my kids will have forever. We need to celebrate the ordinary!

  3. Fun! I'm looking forward to getting to know you more as you share your journey of the ordinary. The ordinary, I think, is the sweetest part of life!
