Welcome to our family blog!
I am a homeschooling
work-at-home mom to
four three. I have one beloved son with Jesus. I've been married over 15 years and every day is sweeter than the last. I love writing, singing, animals, and the great outdoors. I am also an herbalist in training and as organic as I can be.

Samuel was here

This blog was created after my beloved son, Samuel, entered the gates of Heaven after a valiant fight against leukemia and unheard of complications of chemotherapy. You can find his life story
here.
On this blog, I have chosen to continue to share our lives with you after we suffered our worst nightmare; as we learned how to live with the sorrow of loss and find the joy in life again that only God can provide.

I've been a Christian for as long as I can remember. I have always believed in God and tried to serve Him in my own way. However I fully realize today that prior to Samuel's death, I only knew
about God and a lot of the things I had been taught were wrong.. Job spoke to the Lord in chapter 42 saying,
"I had only heard about you before, but now I have seen you with my own eyes. I take back everything I said, and I sit in dust and ashes to show my repentance.” In order for God's Spirit to fill you, you must be emptied of everything that is not of Him first. It wasn't until after Samuel's death that I was fully emptied of every worldly ambition, lust and motivation. It was also then that I dusted off my Bible and read it cover to cover. In doing so, I fully
met the person that is Jesus Christ who pulled me out of the pit of sorrow and carried me until I could walk on my own again. Life has never been the same since that day. That
"meeting" and ongoing fusion of Christ into every part of my life is chronicled on this blog as well. I believe and therefore, I write about Him.
May the Lord bless you as you read here.
In His Service,
