First of all, I'm sorry for this absurd picture my husband thinks is "funny". Secondly, here's a bit about me. I'm a married lady living in the South with my husband and baby girl, trying to do it all with grace. I'm a working mom and love spending time with my family, singing (mostly at church) and crocheting! I'm the main blogger around these parts.I do attend church regularly and take my relationship with God very seriously. When I first met Robbie, he thought I was a "crazy Christian" b/c I carried a Bible in my purse and had no problem whipping it out at the dinner table, even if dinner was at Chili's! Nonetheless, he kept asking me out and decided I was a keeper. We've been married since 2007.
Blogs categorized as "Clearing it Up" are insights/lessons learned in my spiritual walk. We combined blogs last year and now everything is here, just with tags/categories.
Robbie

This is my husband, Robbie, who is about as silly/crazy as they come. He also thinks his picture is funny... which it actually is because he really thinks his eyes are crossed! :) He helps keep us straight and mainly aggravates the crap out of me, but we love him anyway! We're complete opposites in so many ways, but we make a pretty good team.Emily

This is our little ladybug, Miss E. She also gets a silly pic, but her's is MUCH CUTER than ours. She steals our hearts more everyday and we have so, so, so much to learn as parents!Sassy
Sassy is our beloved 3 legged hound dog! We rescued her from the animal shelter in March 2009. Yes, she had all 4 legs when we got her, but she got into an accident and now is the sweep little hop a long she is! Sweet to us, but she may try to eat the neighborhood to protect us.Categories

Better than a Hallelujah?
At our church, there’s a segment of the traditional service called “special music”. I don’t typically get to hear this music because we attend the early (more contemporary) service, but each week, someone is there in that slot singing something. … Continue reading
The Applause of Heaven
The Holy Spirit is one of the most frustrating concepts to understand in all of Christianity. Sure, I get there is a “Holy Trinity”… but I get the concept of Father and Son (even with an emaculate conception) so much … Continue reading
Running Over
I wonder if I’m the only one out there who can tear up during the opening assembly at Vacation Bible School watching the kids sing the catchy little songs? No, I’m not PMS’ing, and, no, I’m not pregnant again. But … Continue reading
I love you THIS much!
Things are going well out here in our parenting adventure. This past weekend was especially interesting. For some reason, Emily decided that she was going to scream and cry for us, for just about every minute she wasn’t asleep or … Continue reading
A Mommy Challenge
I have been dying to blog for a WEEK!! It’s been a few days since I could get to it due to some technical issues and it feels like I’m going nuts! :) Like I have no outlet for all … Continue reading
