About Me

I'm just a girl determined to live my life Intentionally!

WELCOME TO MY JOURNEY THROUGH LIFE!


Welcome to my newly revamped Blog. A lot has happened since I last blogged in June and it seems like such a long time ago.


I am a wife of one husband, and a mother of 5 kids, although they don't seem like kids, they are all taller than me and and range in age from 17 -26, four boy kinds and one girl kind. At times I make a huge effort to understand them and then I get exhausted and practise putting on make-up instead, I feel I get that right sometimes!! If you don't agree, I don't need to know, thanks anyway!


The kid in the picture on the sides, thats me, I felt it necessary to let you see yourself that I had the whole fashion thing happening when I was 8, even knew how to accessorise with the clip in my hair and the peg holding my cape on, was wooden, not some plastic junk!


I have just launched a new business that I am excited about called "THIS IS WHO I AM". So I will pop over every now and then and share something funny, wise, stupid, sad and hopefully inspiring.

I want to hear from you, drop me a line, and for those who have asked me to write about something in particular, I'm getting on to it!


Many times I have been asked to start blogging so I have finally taken the plunge. My blog is going to be about everyday life and sharing the journey with you, hopefully you will be encouraged and I will learn how to do life better.

I have a busy, fun, crazy life but don't know that I would swap it in a hurry for a quiet, boring life, although every now and then would be nice.


I will be adding interesting and funny photos along the way!

Looking forward to the journey.

WHAT WAS HE THINKING?

Some days I'm tempted to ask God "What were you
thinking, when you gave me kids?" I mean, they're
not like puppies that you can put a collar on and take
to dog obedience school, and you can't surrender them
to the RSPCA for stealing your shoes, but there would
have been many opportunities for that, I regularly
hear my husband complaining that someone has
used all his razors, his socks, his deodorant, and on
occasion his car oil and petrol, on the other hand, I
often hear the boys yell out , "Where is Dads new
hiding place for the deodorant?" to which one or two
of the other boys reply, "It's in his first hiding place",
haha, Its a regular event and one of those times that
I am thankful that I have boys and not girls taking
my things!

But really, What was God thinking?, Did He want me
to be forever wondering if I was doing it right, even
getting one thing right!! Did He want me to face the
amazing selfishness that was hidden in my heart?
Did He want me to have something to do during the
day (and the night) so I didn't get bored? Was He
playing a joke on me because at times it has been
very funny.

I'm not sure why God wanted me to have these
children but I am forever grateful that He did,
the things that I have learned have filled my heart
to overflowing and wonder at what God has in
store for me next.

Good idea God!
