Who I am - in a nutshell . . .

I am a lover of God. I am passionate about the things that I love, and I love all the things that I am passionate about. I am a seeker of truth, grace and purity. I love to find the beauty in all things and I am convinced that the Creator of this universe is in love with me and all of mankind. I am certain that His love is too vast and deep for us to fully comprehend; we have only had a glimpse, just a taste of His great love for us. I look forward to the day when I will see Him face to face; to behold His glory and to feel that immense love for me in full. I love to worship God. I love to sit for endless hours at a piano and worship God thru my music. I love to bask in His presence and sit quietly and listen to Him speak to me. I love to pray! I pray throughout my day for different people and their situations. I love to see prayers answered, knowing that my Father in heaven is not too busy to hear His children and meet their needs and requests! I also love the fact that I am a daughter of the King of this universe and that “No weapon formed or fashioned against me shall prosper!!” I love knowing the fact that no matter how many times I’ve fallen, messed up or made mistakes, that my Father sees my heart and knows that when I am truly broken and contrite, and that He instantaneously forgives me when I ask. I love knowing that I am free and that I don’t have to let the "bad things" I've done in my past keep me in bondage or shame. I am so grateful for knowing that by the grace of God “I can do ALL things through Christ which strengthens me!!”

I love streams, rivers and ponds; they are peaceful to me. I love the rain, staying inside, curled up by the fireplace, sipping hot tea, reading a good book; preferably one written by John Eldridge. I love snow – it is very quiet and soothing; I like to catch snowflakes on my tongue! (Childish maybe, but I don’t care!) I love music!!! I could go on for hours about music, but quite simply, music is a part of who I am; I eat breathe and sleep music. I love our band, Undone, we rock!

I love my children, they are precious and beautiful. I love to just sit and listen to them; they have the most interesting things to say!


I love my two friends, Sarah and Amanda; they are quite possibly the most fabulous people that I know!!

I love my crazy, insane life-time friend, Brian, eventhough he is total spazz. (But I still won't EVER forgive you for the time our band was trapped for endless hours in Larry's T-bird, YOU, hotboxing it with your farts!!!! No more gas station burritos for you, pal. . . ) I do love the way Brian shreds his electric guitar though. Sweetness!!

I really love my husband and I am so grateful that through all of our failures, that we have learned to respect and honor each other, learned to forgive and be forgiven, and most of all that we didn't give up on our marriage when we wanted to the most. We have learned the meaning of commitment and dedication, not through our successes, but through our failures. We know that we made vows before God, and we now understand the importance of keeping those vows.

On the more serious side, I love dairy products; however they don't like me, as I am lactose intolerant! I don’t like pickles, except for in tuna sandwiches. I love eating cereal late at night. I say the word “ruined” funny; all of my friends would agree! I love watching senseless comedies like Napoleon Dynamite, as I find really dumb things hilarious! I try to make people laugh; it feels good to see someone smile. I hate zits; I ‘m thirty and I feel that it is an injustice to still get them at my age! I love my dog, Colby Jack, He rocks!!






I love to clean and I like my house that way; however, I’ve had to resist my urge to be “anally retentive” in having kids. I like cleaning other people’s houses!! (Weird . . . ) I love teenagers; they are so full of life and fun! I like to mentor them also; younger folks need us older peeps to look up to! (As long as we’re setting good examples, that is) I love life and I can’t wait to see what happens next . . .
