My life is filled with many blessings. Let me list three of them and they will help describe "who I am."
- I am a Christian. All of the blessings and grace I have received in this life come from my Heavenly Father.
- I am married to a truly wonderful, godly man. He has the funniest sense of humor. He truly works hard without complaining for his family. He models Christ's servant hood on a daily basis.
- The joy and blessing of children have been added to our family. I have 3 daughters who are currently 5, 3, and yet to be born. I have one son who is 22 months.
Now, if I were to write you a letter introducing myself I would probably say something like this:
Dear Friend,
My name is Kelly and I am happily married to someone who truly is my best friend. We have three lovely children and one on the way. I am a SAHM (stay-at-home-mom). This title involves quite a bit! Training and discipling my children, cleaning, cooking, and homeschooling comprise a normal day in my household.
Reading is something I happily do if I have a few moments. I read for fun as well as to expand my knowledge on various topics. My local librarians know me quite well.
I was taught to sew clothing last year by a dear lady in my church. This opened up a whole new love to me. While I am not able to sew as much as I would like I do enjoy how well I "de-stress" while fashioning some new article of clothing for my daughters to wear.
Cooking and baking are two more things that interest me. I am constantly learning healthier ways to cook and it has opened up many avenues of culinary enjoyment in our family. Er, except for beans . . . but that is another story for another post.
Writing. I love to write. I am able to process my thoughts and bring them out better on paper - or computer screen - better than when I communicate verbally. I studied as an English major during college for this various reason. This is why I blog. My husband tells me that when he reads my posts that he learns new things about me.
I am sure you will learn more about me as time goes on.
In His grace,
Kelly

Thanks for the invite to your new blog, I actually enjoyed reading your greeting letter very much:]
I'll be adding your new blog to my linklist but a certain sweet babe is snuggled to sleep against me causing this hunt and peck for letters to take forever!
Hello!!! I came here from Kelli's blog! :) It is great to meet you and welcome to blogland!!! :)
Kelly, I got the link for your blog on the mom bloggers club comment 3 group. You seem to be a kindred spirit in so many ways. I, too, get my inspiration for blogging from all of the blessings that Our Lord has seen fit to send me. I will add you to my list and happy blogging!May the Lord continue to bless you in your vocation of being a mother.
Kelli: I love your blog just as I did Mama Russell's Blog. We are kindred spirits, I think...(boy 6, girl 4, boy 2, boy 10 most) and Christian homeschoolers! God bless you and keep up the creative, thoughtful, and beautiful work. Jennifer
Hi! I just popped over to "visit" you after I started following you on Twitter. I'm heading over to my GoogleReader to add your blog. :o)
