A Blog is Born


Nothing like a big cliché to get a blog started.  I have a baby, become a stay at home mom, and in the vein of so many stay at home moms that have come before me in this modern era, I start a blog.  I will even go as far as to say that this blog has come into existence because of my daughter and how she has completely and utterly changed my life.  She has and continues to shape who I am and I feel compelled to share what a life changing gift this little life is to me, and the wisdom that I can glean, so far, from the mission field of motherhood.  Real cliché. But real nonetheless.  The truth is, I have been shaped by so much of what God has been so kind to show me in the recent years, that I hardly recognize myself from just a few years ago.  
                Here’s what I know about myself, and subsequently, what this blog may very well wind up being about.  I believe God has called me, has called all of us really, to a life of wholeness.  That God desires the whole of our lives to be captivated by His majesty, His mercy, His grace, and that He makes everything glorious, to borrow a few words from David Crowder Band.  I wholeheartedly embrace a life of intentional, natural and simple living.  I love whole foods, in their real and traditional form and getting better at cooking them.  I love my husband with my whole, imperfect and sometimes impatient heart.  And of course,  Anika Jo has completed our family in the most perfect way possible.  With that, a blog is born.  Welcome to The Whole Life.
