I have always been a writer. When I moved in with my husband he wondered why I had so many plastic tubs full of notebooks (that filled his garage to the brim). I told him they were my journals.

I didn’t want the whole world to read my writing and then I feared the world wouldn’t want to read what I had to say. I think I finally decided to start this because I have been so truly inspired by so many blogs I have discovered over the past year. These inspirational blogs touch on marriage, children, gardening, decorating, organic lifestyles and so much more.
