The beginning of something new



Good morning! Today I have decided to start blogging. I am new to this, but have been excited about starting a blog. I will warn all readers I am an awful speller and I type so much worse.

I have a "Simple" life. Sometimes it takes me a while to realize how great my life is...but I come around. With all the venting and complaining I do among friends, at times, I don't always put out the positive things in my life. Blogging I am hope will help me do both; vent and share blessed events....(we all need to do both at times)

I love the Lord; who has given me such a wonderful family that I am so grateful for everyday. I have been blessed with a husband that is such a perfect mate for me. I don't always tell him that but he really is! We have been married for 7 1/2 years. He is such a hard worker, and wonderful husband and father. Sometimes I sit back and wonder how the Lord chose to give me such a great guy. He is an all around family man! We have two amazing children, that we are so grateful for. Sometimes we live our day to day life and take for granted the blessings we have. I look into the eyes of my girls and get so emotionally filled with joy. Watching my husband with them is one of my favorite past times. (When they don't know I am watching of course) both of my little girls have daddy wrap around their fingers if you know what I mean.

So now that you know how I feel and what a wonderful family I have been blessed with; you should keep that in mind if you are a follower of my blog. In reading some of my future blogging you may need to glance back at this as a reminder....LOL!

I may have painted a perfect picture of our wonderful family...but they are only perfect in my eyes. We are perfectly normal! We have the stress of hustle and bussel on a daily basis. We have the girls that know how to throw the perfect temper tantrums ages 3 1/2 years and one soon to be 16 months. We have the bills, and the debt of any normal family out there. We get caught up in all of the chaos of the daily life. The key word in all this is Normal...... The typical family life...... The "Simple" life! At the time you are living it or complaining about it or trying to decide "Are we having fun yet?" (a saying my cousin always asks when things aren't going so well) it might not seem so simple. Then at the end of the day I look back and see what I have in my life and realize how blessed I am. Some of the things I made so complicated didn't have to be that complicated at all.........The more I simple I make things the easier it might get. To "Simplify" will be my new goal!

I can't help but think of this verse,Proverbs 31:28&29 - Her children stand and bless her.Her husband praises her. “There are many virtuous and capable women in the world,but you surpass them all!”
