Reinvention

Ok, so here's the thing.....I'm at a new phase in life....a new season. And I keep thinking to myself....blogging...is it for me, or not? With 4 children and one on the way, is this really something I have time for, or even want to do, and I guess for the moment, the answer is....yes.

A while back, I closed my blog, and started this one under the same name. Don't ask me why....and now here I am trying to sort of start over again. I thought maybe I should start fresh with a new name.....but even after all the changes I've gone through in my personal life, Blessed Simplicity....it still suits me. It's still what I'm striving for in my life, and so I continue on, still seeking that blessed simplicity that can only come from the Lord, for myself and for my family. For the time being, I've removed all my old blog posts, and am posting this as the beginning of my "reinvention" of my new-old blog :o) Confused yet? Yeah, so am I.....

I don't intend for this to be something I will do on a daily basis, but only as I'm able to. A place where I can share what's going on in our lives here, things that inspire me, things that we've accomlished, information that I've found helpful in my own life, and whatever else comes to mind. I'll probably be re-posting some of my old blog posts as well, if I find them useful or relevant to what's going on in our lives now.

I also don't plan on bending over backwards to make sure I have lots of pictures to share here. As much as I enjoy reading blogs where there is shared multiple photos of various things....taking pictures, unfortunately, is not my thing.

A few things that you will most likely read a lot about here is my love for the Lord, and how He affects all areas of my life, my husband, and my efforts to be a godly wife, and mother to my children, and our little one due in May, our homeschool journey and what is or isn't working for us, natural living and my desire to live healther, eat healthier, and simply be healthier, our (as of right now) dormant urban homestead, and all the things that I do to try to achieve the simple-back to basics-lifestyle we are seeking for.

Although, I hope that I can bless others through what I share here, I'm doing this primarily for my own benefit, and the benefit of my family. A chronicle of sorts for us to reflect on as we choose to do so. I want this blog to reflect who I really am and what I'm about. I hope whoever chooses to do so, will enjoy the ride-along.

Blessings,
