Who am I? A wife for almost 40 years. A mom for over 36 years. A sister and a friend, of course. Each of these help describe me. But, even more, I have been a Christian since accepting Him as my Savior when I was 12 years old and, this truth defines each area of my life. I have enjoyed some mountain top experiences but have been through some very deep valleys as well. Valleys of incredible grief and even pits of depression. However, most of my days are ordinary, routine kind of days. But in every one of my days, God has been faithful. He has walked with me whatever the day. He strengthens, comforts, encourages and blesses me with life "most abundant."

A favorite life verse: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. John 10:10

Why do I write? Though not quite as private as my dad, I am definitely my father's daughter. I find it difficult to share. And to let others in. But I do love to write. I love to put words into sentences and sentences in paragraphs that help express my thoughts. I hope my words help me share my heart. Share the life that God has given me and all that He has done for me and through me. I write with the hope of giving Him at least a bit of the glory He is due.

A verse to guide my writing: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ. I Peter 1:7

It is a Bit of an Obsession

Posted on By jennifer

PROJECT: 52 PHOTOs – and how appropriate that I work CraigsList into my blog! I will admit I have a bit of a CraigsList habit. Seriously. I love to browse! and, occassionally, I actually buy:) I have yet to sell anything…but, oh, buying is so much more fun!

This week I came across the sweetest crib set for our little grandson on the way!! It was brand new – some of the pieces with the tags still on. It was from Pottery Barn (another favorite) and even included the curtain rod. I’m tellin’ you, it was my “treasure find” for the week…maybe, the month.
So – this is not only a sneak preview for baby’s mama:)….but also a glimpse into my life this week!!

I LOVE that middle frame – it says “Bonne Nuit”….which I used to say so often to my own little ones at bedtime. At least I learned something from five years of high school French!!
