Inspired

I have been inspired for a while by my friends who are in this world of "blogging" and have wanted to give it a whirl...so here it goes.
I always feel like when I have read a friends blog, that I have had a conversation with them and I am blessed because of it. Thank you to my sweet friends for sharing your lives with me.

My life has been filled with beautiful surprises. The two most important - meeting my future husband, while I was still in college, on a blind date ( set up by a family member, none the less!) and being the mom of 2 wonderful kiddos - both unplanned by me, but totally planned by God.
God continues to have rich surprises for me, if I will just wait to recieve them. Most often, these surprises will come after a hardship of some kind. I know throughout my life, my faith story has been built by the beautiful surprises God allowed in my life...and I am enternally grateful.
My hearts desire is to document these surprises mostly for me - so that I never forget. But also, for my children - so they will always remember how faithful God was to their mommy...and how faithful He will be to them.
