Genesis

"In The Beginning..."

It's how the most romantic love story of all time began. And of course it is how I should proudly begin this new journey with you. It is my sincerest hope that you will feel right at home on this little blog of mine.

A little about me...

I'm from a place where the tea is always sweet. Strangers smile at one another. You will always run into someone at the grocery store, so quick trips for milk after the gym are out of the question. Farmer's Markets are every Saturday, and I guarantee you won't make it home without sampling the fresh baked goods. Family is where your heart is. Babies get kissed every Sunday morning at church from little old ladies who can't help but give them some sugar. Where the smell of fresh cut grass lingers, and laughter is the best medicine.

You guessed it. This Mississippi girl is from Smalltown, USA in the heart of the Bible Belt, and y'all I honestly wouldn't have it any other way. I'm blessed beyond compare with the best family a girl could ask for. How'd I get so lucky, you ask? Simply put, by the grace of God.

I turn another year older on the 14th of July. And I'm a mother to the most beautiful fur baby alive. Sorry I'm a tad prejudice. Here she is.. MISS AMERICA.

Layla is a schnauzer-mix that my best friend/boyfriend, Jordan (of course I'll introduce you in due time), and I adopted almost two years ago. We were out on the lake for her first time in that picture! One happy pup. And just in case you were wondering, why yes, that is a life jacket! haha. She's the most beautiful thing in the world to me. I can't imagine the love I will have for my own child one day, but I can't help but think it has to be pretty close to the way I feel about her.

Ok, so now you know just a smidge about me. Don't worry, more will come.

I want to take a second and pray over this blog. That the words that I type may be pleasing to you, Lord. I want to open my heart, no matter what season I am in, to telling others of your love and your mercy. -Amen

I am basing my blog from this verse.
Won't you memorize it with me?

Luke 10:2
So pray to the Lord who is in charge of the harvest; ask him to send more workers into His fields.

I want to encourage you, and ask for encouragement, to be a worker for the Lord every day!

Until next time :)
