Do you have peace or frenzy? While I have not spent enough time just cozying around the fire reading good ole Christmas stories with the kiddos I am not frantic. (I am writing thisin the middle of the night simply because I have let my sleep cycles change). I am grateful for this, in years past I was so busy running around trying to be "Perfect Suzy Homemaker" that I often did not sit down and enjoy the day or the lights or .....
This year we have decided to take things a little simpler and try to keep our focus on the real meaning of Christmas. Being Thankful that Christ Jesus came to live here on earth as a man, have you pondered on that? Subject to the aches and pains of this human body, suffering from heat, cold, exhaustion and the list goes on. Then to die an excruciating death on a cross? Unfathomable, I am deeply grateful for the gift of salvation and forgiveness for my sins.
I encourage you to slow down and enjoy the moment.

About Me
- A Child of Christ
- I have been married since 1992 and we have 6 children. They are an amazing blessing from the Lord. I work side by side with my husband, both in the business world and in our family. We are in construction and real estate. We are homeschooling our younger four children; 13, 13, 10 & 8, while we also have one in high school and another in college. I am blessed; we have an awesome family, a beautiful home, an incredible church. I pray that God uses me to encourage and exhort others in their walk with Him. May the Lord be with you Always. Lori
