Raising Grace-Filled Arrows
"Train up a child in the way he should go; and when he is old, he will not depart from it." Proverbs 22:6
Just a momma who knows WHOSE she is, but is trying to re-figure out WHO she is in the rare quiet moments of motherhood.
My name is Kelsey, I'm a mom to two sweet boys and I have an incredible husband whom I love with my whole heart. We have two dogs and we love being outside, hanging out as a family and having pizza movie nights! I started this blog just as a way for me to have something for ME. And lets face it, no one reads blogs anyways anymore so it's definitely for me! Motherhood is the most wonderful job I've ever had. Don't get me wrong...the days are LONG, and sometimes, okay, most days, I count down the hours....or minutes until my husband gets home from work. But ever since I was a kid, all I wanted to do when I "grew up" was to be a mom. I'm so thankful to God that he placed that calling on my life! I truly am! It is SO HARD, but oh so worth it! I've been feeling a little lost lately about who Kelsey is without just being "mommy". I don't have an answer quite yet, but I figured this blog would be a good way for me to start. Just to be creative and write about being a momma, posting my favorite health and wellness tips, and some of my favorite recipes, because FOOD is life.
Also, you know in the Bible how Moses said he was slow to speak and didn't speak well? Well...that's how I feel about my writing. I've never been great with words; if you know me in person you can testify to that! I just feel like words fail me and I never have the right words to say at the right time or the correct wording, or the fancy words, or inspirational posts, etc. For a while now, I've been feeling like I should start a blog and I kept pushing it off because of the fear of having to write WORDS. Definitely something I need to work on, but I'm just praying that I can convey what I have to say well and that God will use my lack of words to show His power and glory.
