This space.

So many times I sit down at this little place and can't put my thoughts together to even form a sentence. I love this space. I love the memories that are here. I love looking back through posts and remembering the moments and the words I wrote. Remembering the place I was right at that very moment. I want to find time to come back to this space. Life has a way of slipping by with no notice whatsoever, and this is my way of holding onto a small moment here and there. 

I love the journey that got me here. I started this blog as a newlywed, a few months pregnant with my first baby girl. We were selling a house, buying a house, moving states and learning to work together as husband and wife. That first year was full of so many blessings. We learned so very much and I am beyond thankful I sat to write about that journey.

I am thankful I sat to write about my pregnancy, both times. I am thankful I wrote about how I felt when I became a mother for the very first time. How that moment changed me, from the inside out. How I longed that very day to be more. To be a better woman, friend, wife. To be the very best mommy to the little angel God had sent for me to care for. 

I am thankful I have wrote about the day to day. How crazy it is with 3 kids, a business, and keeping up with it all. I am thankful I throw pictures up here every now and then. I love to look back on them and see how little my babies were. How much they have changed and how they are turning into their own little independent people. Man, time really does move so quickly. 

Our journey hasn't always been easy but it has certainly been filled with so many of God's blessings. We serve a God of love. Pure love. That alone just amazes me. He loves us so purely. So deeply. He is jealous for us. In his eyes, I am perfect. I fall short so many times and forget that we serve this God of pure love. That He will never leave us. I love to sit in the peace of that thought. He is here. 

This blog holds so many of my thoughts, my joys and my fears. It has been a small glimpse into our little life, chronicling the day to day as we strive to raise our children as God would have us, be kind, take the high road, and keep on truckin' when we fall down. And Lord, we fall down plenty.

Thank you for following along with us. Thank you for loving my family and praying for us. I love you all. I am thankful for the friends I have made here and the family that comes beside us on our life walk. You are all a huge blessing to us! I miss this space and hope to make more time to write down the moments that fill up our days, our weeks, our months and our lives.
