Pouty Face

December 16, 2011

This is his pouty face… to be precise this is his, “mom I’m trying to watch cartoons please stop taking my picture face”. I love all his faces!

I never thought my life would turn out this good. I am amazed each day by the blessings of God. I am married to a fabulous (and good looking... if I do say so myself) man of God who is the best father to our 2 little ones. I have always been that typical Type A personality, but being a mother has certainly mellowed me down a wee bit! I have many passions in life. I am passionate about my children and about being the best, most Godly mom possible. I am overly passionate about My Christopher and most of all I am passionate about Jesus. I want to live my life with BOLDNESS - sharing with others my beliefs in Christ and my beliefs about the world. I like to run, workout and watch college athletics. I love the VOLS and most things "southern" (soup beans, cornbread, fried okra, vinegar coleslaw, sweet tea & lemonade). I am not perfect, but I am pleased to say that the Lord is working and refining me everyday!

I met my husband in youth group at church. We started seeing one another (whatever that means) the summer before my senior year of high school. I was reluctant and he was persistent. 2 1/2 years later he proposed on the alter of our church on New Years Day. 7 months later we were married and now here we are almost 8 years later with 2 babies! Chris is quiet and usually finds humor in every situation. He's my voice of reason and my best friend. He's a wonderful father and he loves the Lord. He has a missionary heart and I cannot wait to see what all the Lord is going to do with his life!

I never knew love like this existed until Colton came into this world. 39 weeks and 1 day followed by about 30 hours of labor Colton made his arrival at 12:41am Wednesday June 4th, 2008. Since then our lives have never been the same! The Lord has used this small vessel to refine me in areas I didn't know existed. I am so humbled by the fact that the Lord chose me to be his mother. I always pictured myself working in corporate America, but I know now the Lord has called me to be a stay at home mom and it is there that I find such joy!
