Growing up most little girls dream of getting married and having children. They have their life planned out and of course it is nothing short of a fairy tale. However, in blended family life nothing resembles a fairy tale unless people are referring to the stepmom as “wicked.”
We’ve all heard the saying, “The Lord works in mysterious ways.”
Throughout my life I have said that exact phrase many, many, many times. Never did I think I would be saying it in the situation I was placed in a few months ago.
“If you ask what is the single most important key to longevity, I would have to say it is avoiding worry, stress and tension. And if you didn’t ask me, I’d still have to say it.” George Burns
Same sex marriage…..oooohhh weee what a hot topic right now! It is something that will be debated for years to come.
My faith is important to me. Faith is important to a lot of people in Eastern Kentucky. However, sometimes people can go overboard when it comes to their faith on social media.
Yesterday my husband and I celebrated our one year wedding anniversary.
I love my husband more than anything in this world but like other couples we have had our issues. It’s easy for couples to have a “perfect” marriage on Facebook or Instagram. However, there is no such thing as a perfect marriage. Couples disagree, fight, argue and sometimes just don’t like each other.
Busy…busy…busy. The word that every woman knows. I’ve gotten to the point where it is hard for me to sit still because I am constantly busy. From work to the various (and I mean quite a few) organizations that I am either apart of or head-up, to taking care of the kids to just trying to be a mediocre (I’m really not too good at it) house wife.
Sometimes I get so busy and forget about the most important things to me…..my family and my faith. I am constantly volunteering or helping others that I don’t always get to just sit down and enjoy time with my family. I am a planner…which usually has me stressed out even more.
My husband and I have a nightly routine that includes reading our devotional and “random Bible readings.” Reading the Bible is important for everyone but also very important for couples. Getting closer to God on a personal level can help you in your relationships. Since my husband and I started going to church our marriage is better than it was when we started dating.
