So it shall begin....

For the last year or so, I have really wanted to start blogging. I love reading some of my close friend's blogs. I love learning about their lives; from what I can pray for over them, to what the Lord is teaching them daily, to what new things their family is devoting their time too.
 I  really got the spark to start this blog from my BFF Ande Long ;) The Lord is getting ready to bless the Long family with a sweet baby girl and I so want to be there every second to see all of those firsts with my best friend, however due to distance and time, I really hoped that Ande would jump on board and begin the blogging adventure so that I could selfishly get a peek into life at the Long's home as they get to embark on the amazing journey of parenthood. She has in fact started her blog and I will post a link to it asap. Every thing that Ande writes is oozing of her love for the Lord and others. It will definitely bless you!
My hope and prayer is that through this time that I spend writing on this blog, others will be encouraged and most of all see Jesus and His love.
The underlying current in my life is that " Life is about Relationships"
First and foremost, my Relationship with my Creator: Jesus Christ and secondly my relationship with others.
 I hope those "others" know how special they are to me and how glad I am that the Lord is letting me do life together with you. 
My sweet husband Ben may post on here a time or two, as well and you can be sure that pictures of  Andrew will be available for your viewing pleasure.
I leave with this time old blessing over each of you from Numbers 6:24-26
The Lord bless you and keep you;
The Lord make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you .
The Lord turn His face toward you and give you Peace!

Have a wonderful day!
