Here are the five reasons that I blog:

1. For Fun. I stared blogging really back when yahoo came out with geocities. It was my way to keep my family updated with photos and info on the kidlets. It has since morphed into my current blog.

2. To be an encouragement to other women in their walk of faith.

3. To help women who are struggling with their past; childhood abuse, alcoholic parents, etc. I pray that my story brings hope that they can be free from these things and that God can do anything!

4. It gives me an outlet for my creative side while not making a mess that the kids can’t get into. Blogging requires no paint, canvas, or much space.

5. It’s a journal of sorts. I can share my stories with all of you.

    Thanks for setting up the blog hop. I think I’ve done everything correctly. I hit “follow this blog” in Network Blogs, and it told me I’m following even though I don’t see my thumbnail picture. If I need to do something else, please let me know!
    God Bless,

    Thanks for dropping by my Wordless Wednesday. I’d love to do this blog hop, but I won’t have time tonight, or for the rest of the week as we’re heading back home from VA to MN and we’re driving. So, just jumping online for a bit tonight. Your site is very compelling and will dive more into the topics when I get home.
