I have always loved to write. Writing is a very healing process for me. For years while raising kids, I never found the time to sit and write, but there are always thoughts, ideas, sayings that swirl in my head. My hope is that maybe something I have written will resonate with just one person. My posts are very personal to me. We are all living in this messy and wonderful thing called “life.” My life is filled with family, laughter, rescued dogs, adopted kids/biological kids, faith, coffee and wine. Most days I am just happy the kids are fed and have been showered. Happy reading!

My other blog page is: https://givensfamilyhosting.blogspot.com/ where I blogged about our hosting and adopting our two sons from Ukraine.

Most importantly: who am I? I am a mid-forties mother to 4 boys, two dogs and a wife to one. I live in NC on beautiful Lake Norman.
