"Woven"
It has been 3 years. Wow. I explain in the video below about my heart for relaunching this blog and the meaning behind its new name. I don't know exactly where it's all headed but I've felt the nudge lately to get back out "there" or... "here", rather. I'll share more about what has been happening in our family and my life lately, but to summarize- I feel like he's leading us into a new season. I want to document whatever that road looks like for us. Writing and journaling is a way for me to process the mysterious ways of God and the misunderstandings of life as well as a way to look back and see where He has connected the dots through it all. This is just another expression of that process.
About 8 months ago I got off of Facebook as I felt this "nudge" to simplify and remove clutter as well as make time for the most important things around me. I had no idea what a blessing that would be! While I have missed really major life events such as baby announcements and engagements, it's been refreshing too. (Sorry, Mom) :) If we want to glean from the Lord's wisdom, we really do have to be intentional about getting our minds and lives in a position of being a good listener and learner.
So much has been happening over the past few years, right up until today! I look forward to sharing some of those moments with you.

I'm excited to hear from you again! Glad you're "back." Though you are right, there are lots of thoughts and opinions out there, the circle of people God has placed in your life *want* to hear from you! Sometimes it is more encouraging to hear truths and see life lived to the glory of God by people we actually know. Does that make sense?
Hey Lisa!! So great to hear from you. I miss seeing the details of your own life unfold. Would love to hear what's been going on! Thanks so much for your words of encouragement. ☺
I'm beyond excited for this and for just your pure heart in doing this. Wow my sister. What video program are you using? I wanna give it a go if I can. Thanks and blessings to you and your family.
Hey Honoray, thank you for your encouraging words! I film this on my Macbook in Photo Booth and then drag the video into iMovie. From there, I can upload it to YouTube. Would love to hear you share, too! It's a big part of how we all grow. Blessings to you also. :)
