Coffee, Chaos, and Contentment

A glimpse into the life of a real family - ours. We're busy. Sometimes crazy busy. Occasionally, life gets chaotic. But we love each other deeply. God is first in our lives, and then each other. There is laughter and love and beauty in this home we share. And as I journey this somewhat chaotic life with the family I love, there are moments when I have to sit back, take a sip of my coffee with extra cream, and smile as I realize something very valuable...I am content.

About Me

My photo
Coffee Mom
How do you describe yourself? Hmm...let me ponder that. I am a woman blessed to be married to a godly man, a mother of two little firecrackers who keep me on my toes and on my knees, a daughter of the King of Kings, a worshiper and leader of worship, a singer and writer of songs, a lover of things that delight the senses, someone with an attraction to things of beauty and creativity, a girl who can lose herself in a book, a drinker of coffee and tea and all things warm and comforting, a story teller who loves to hear or read a good story, someone who can be as crazy and goofy as they come but also likes to dig deep into God's word and into the meaningful stuff of life. I am a woman whose schedule is busy, and like many of you, am trying to make a difference in my family and my circle of influence while living each day to its fullest, celebrating the life God has given me that is indeed abundant as He promised.
