About Me

My photo
I enjoy spending time with my husband. He's my best friend. I love watching my kids. My girls Emma and Eva are learning, growing and changing every day. Our little boy Benjamin is a joy and has made Bobby happy to not be the only male in the house! I like to soak up every bit of their littleness, but I'm telling you they are getting so big! They are cute. My stepdaughter Eternity has lived here since 2008 and it's a blessing to have her here. A teenager in the house really adds an interesting dynamic. Seriously, she's a good kid. We live on a busier street and we are doing a lot of work in our backyard to make it prettier. I should say Bobby is doing most of the work. I'm usually holding a baby or caring for one of the kids or keeping them out of harms way as Bobby works with manly, heavy tools. Life is busy, but I don't want to miss the special moments that come along every day.

What am I doing?




I wish I was a much better blogger. I can't seem to get in the groove. There are so many moms out there who have something so thoughtful or creative or updating on a hobby or something that they are working on. Sometimes I feel so plain and like I should be doing so much more as a wife and mother. Especially since I'm still on mat leave. I think I need to be more focused in on stuff, I get distracted and even though I'm busy all the day long, I still feel like I waste a lot of time. How is that? I chat on the rare occasion, I don't sit on here and play games. I did that more when I was pregnant with Benjamin. I watched a movie called Julie and Julia a while ago and it was all about Julie Child the cool chef and a girl named Julie in present day who decided to spend a year cooking one of Julia Child's recipe's each day. Then she would blog it and ended up with many followers. How do I get more out there? I want to be more than I am. Not in the material sense. I'm content with what I have. I just want to be more effective in my roles as a wife and a mother. I know that God is the only way to change myself. I can't do it in my own strength. I'll be praying and asking him more what He wants me to do. Am I to homeschool my children? Do I need to work more than just sleep shifts on the weekends? Is there something that I can do from home to create an income? Is there something unique that I can pursue as a job? Lots of questions that I need answers to, in His time of course. Anyways, thanks for listening and I'm going to post this now.
