I am a follower of Christ, wife to the most wonderful husband, and mother to 3 beautiful children. I struggle like many to find balance in my life with all of the demands pulling me in so many directions but strive hard to do my best eveyrday. Though I at times let life get in the way my daily goal is to chase hard after Christ in all I do, love my husband as Christ has called me too, and raise my children in a home where Christ is evident always. I have moments on mountian tops and moments in the valley, but through it all I strive see Christ in the midst. I don't always succeed and find myself on my knees at times asking for forgiveness for allowing the distractions of life get in the way and am so thankful for a God who forgives me everytime and loves me messiness and all. May I exalt him in all I do and teach my children the same. This journey of life is filled with more joy than I ever could ask for along with trials that I often didn't see coming, through it all may I rejoice and always remember I can do all things through Christ who strenghtens me.

Jesus - 1, Satan - 0

Ever have those days when you feel like nothing goes right. Well lately it feels like every time Ron and I have something planned it turns into one of those days. With Ron's work schedule, my work, and the kids activities we have very little time together just the two of us. Lately it seems like anytime we plan something together things just don't go as planned. I know this is Satan's way of trying to get in the way of us growing and strengthening our relationship so I have made it my goal to not allow him to win. This afternoon it felt like everything that could go wrong did go wrong (we forgot the diaper bag, got lost, and ran late getting Ron home for work) but despite all of that Ron and I did enjoy a nice peaceful lunch together and were able to get some much needed errands done. Though there were some bumps in the road it was overall a great afternoon with my wonderful husband. So for today the score stands Jesus - 1 Satan - 0. Satan tried to get in the way, but with a little perspective and some patience we allowed Christ to remain victorious. Hoping that our next attempt at getting out goes a little smoother.
