Reflection
I hope that this finds you all staying well and that you are finding things to occupy your time with during this stay at home period. One of the things I have been doing is some self reflection. So much has happened over the past year and a half and I am looking back over …

Who I Am-Why I’m Here
I am, first and foremost, a child of God, then a wife, mom, daughter, sister, and friend. I have wanted to start a blog for several years now and could never think of a name for it. Nothing that I ever came up with seemed to fit “me” and what I was looking to have …
