Welcome to my blog

Meandering through marriage, motherhood and mess as a child of God.

Joyously married to my beloved for over 20 years. We are a blended family of five children. This blog is an attempt to journal my thoughts, struggles, growth and learning in the process of wifehood, motherhood and being a slave of the King!

One day I’ll share a recipe and the next I’ll post on the evils of social media. I write mainly about my life, homeschooling, home-making, social media, blogging and photography as it pertains to a Christian and the Bible. My greatest passion and desire in life is to share the love and grace of God.
