Welcome

Hi hi!  I am so delighted that you are here!

I began this blog in 2015 as an outlet for creativity and a break from being a stay-at-home-mom.  (And if you have ever been a stay-at-home-mom with three kids preschool age and younger, I know you know what I mean.)  I’m a little quirky and a little wonderful, and I hope you like it here!

If I could, I would take you to a comfy, cozy coffee shop so we could chat about life over a white chocolate mocha with pretty leaf designs in the foam.  But for now, I’ll sip brewed coffee at my kitchen table and hope you do the same at yours.

A few things about me:

*I believe Jesus died for my sins, and that He is refining me into a new person day by day, a person living a full life of joy because of His sacrifice and love for me. (I’m a work in progress.)

*I have always loved all things artsy (music, art, diy crafting, making up recipes even if they don’t turn out great every time, etc.)

*I have an incredible husband and three wonderful children (all born in about the span of three years — yes, I have my hands full, but I wouldn’t change a thing)

*My favorite movie is The Princess Bride, which I love to watch with like-minded people while we quote the lines half a second early.

A few things about the blog and me:

*I love to write.  In fact, I’m one of those weird people who reminisce about staying up late writing college term papers while my fellow classmates snoozed.  Therefore, I have decided to get my fix via blogging. 🙂

*I enjoy reading recipes and crafting tutorials on other blogs, and I love posting about both.

*Ah, kiddos… Mine provide my world with a delightful (usually) cocktail of silliness, challenges, and joy.  I love sharing my crazy parenting journey for the benefit of anyone in similar situations and for general amusement.

So, that’s me.  How about you? Feel free to leave a comment and let me know that you stopped by.  I look forward to sharing a little bit of life with you!
