And so it begins…

Ah, the dreaded first post. I’m not sure why it is so painfully dif­fi­cult to write this one. Per­haps it is because I know that first impres­sions can carry a lot of weight. And that, while I do work best under pres­sure, maybe not under this type of pres­sure. Be sure to come back and read the non-pressured posts. Hope­fully they will be less clunky.

Okay, I’m teas­ing a bit about the pres­sure of it all. Mostly.

So, I thought I would start this blog to share a bit of what’s on my heart about var­i­ous daily things that inter­est me. I hope to dis­cuss the var­i­ous roles that women are involved in, from a Chris­t­ian world­view. I want to talk about daily liv­ing out the Proverbs 31 life, mixed in with some Titus 2. You know, lov­ing our hus­bands and chil­dren, keep­ing the home, hos­pi­tal­ity, school­ing the chil­dren. I will also be cov­er­ing things per­tain­ing to health and some at-home types of reme­dies and ways to man­age that aspect of life. I’ll talk about enter­tain­ing oppor­tu­ni­ties, share some recipes (we have a cou­ple of gluten free chil­dren in our home, so I will share what I have learned in that area), sim­ple ways to dec­o­rate. And, occa­sion­ally, I will share a tid­bit or two from the youngest of my 6 chil­dren. She has an uncanny way of say­ing things that make us laugh. She’s smart as a whip, and her rea­son­ing is way beyond her years. So, inside of her lit­tle 6 year old mind comes all sorts of things that knock my socks off.

I truly hope that you enjoy your time here on this blog. Please, jump right in and com­ment, share in dis­cus­sions, enjoy the ladies who visit here. I look for­ward to get­ting to know you, and hope­fully you will as well. Please let your words be sea­soned with grace. I’m bound to get things wrong at times. Aren’t we all? Break it to me gently.
