About Me

Okay, me... if you want the short version, I am a Christian married mom. I am SO amazed of the love Jesus has poured out on me and on any who seek Him. Lyrics to a Casting Crowns song say it so well, "Who am I that the Lord of all the earth would care to know my name, would care to feel my hurt." Though the world pulls at my attention, I want to seek to know Christ more fully and share His love. This is my greatest goal and challenge.I have a wonderful husband. John is rather perseptive. We complement one another well, and I love him dearly. Together we lead a Bible study on Sunday mornings at church, which I love. And, I was just voted in as youth director; I am very excited!Our two boys, Tyler and Andrew, surprise me with something every day (not always a good surprise, lol) as I stay home with them. Though we aren't financially rich, we have a wealth of love in this home.I wouldn't trade my life for anything, past or present. What I've been through has allowed me to be even more thankful for how far I've come. I have been given understanding and compassion as well as the outlook God wanted me to have. This life is so short; I want to live it in Him. God is an awesome God!
