I guess maybe I should explain what this blog is all about and why I would think anyone would read it. I have been playing around with the idea for a long time now that I should write letters to my kids, in case one day before they grow up I should not be here. Morbid? Maybe, but I don't ever want my kids to doubt the love I have for them, my Father left a book of notes, instructions, thoughts, guidance for me so that I may choose my path wisely.
I think there are a few times in life when you consciously know or feel that God is standing beside you with His arm upon your shoulders, the birth of a child or the loss of a loved one. I felt this distinctly on Saturday morning as I watched my kids carrying small cups of water to my husband to water the pumpkins we had planted the day before. It seemed as though He was standing right beside me saying, " See, no matter what happens in life, I gave you this. I love you, I care for you, I know you." My heart swelled with a love so strong I am not sure where it came from, the breeze blew threw their hair and their squeals and giggles could be heard far and wide, it was the sweetest sound to my ears.
So follow along if you wish as I journal my love, life and thoughts to my kids. Sometimes it will be stories, some prayers and some just thoughts. I am sure I will be brought closer to God and I hope you will to. Each day God deepens the desire I have in my heart to reach out to people through him, I am filled with an unspeakable sadness at the thought that someone might not know Him.
Until we meet again I leave you in His Blessings,
'Manda
About Me

- I am a stay at home, working on an associates degree I may never finish. (insert humor here) I have a wonderful husband who I've been married to for almost four years, and three beautiful kids. I have wanted to try blogging for a long time, I used to be, and by that I mean when I was in school, fairly good at writing, so we'll see how this plays out.
