Back to Blogging

Wow, it's been a long time since I've posted a blog! So long in fact that re-reading old posts seemed strange. Like they were written by someone else. . .perhaps a younger Jeanne. My life has changed so much over the past three years I barely know that "easy breezy girl" so this blog was due some changes. Starting with its name:) and address. And appearance. And description. And photo.

So  in addition to blog changes there have been some life changes and lifestyle changes to this easy breezy girl. My family moved from suburbia to rural Virginia three years ago. My husband changed careers and my daughter became a young woman. As for me I'm still here. Living life. Except with a clearer understanding of WHO I am living it for.  

There are so many facets to what that looks like. And it seems to change day by day. Amidst all the changes though, this one thing remains. It is well with my soul. And that it what I feel I must blog about. 

This beautiful, joyful, crazy life I am blessed to live and the people God has placed in my life to share it with me. My husband Tyson. Our daughter Jessica. I will start with them. What it's like to be a fire fighter's wife. The cool thing we do called home-school. The natural things we do like grow our own food and try to eat clean, the way we feel called to parent. . . The challenges we face as we live in the world without being transformed by the world. Eventually I may share a little about the conversations Jess and I have had recently about how to answer kindly to criticisms about our faith or beliefs especially when they come from people close to us.

For certain I hope to share what God is teaching me. Through His word and through His church. So far this year it's all about my words being kind:) not only the words I speak to others but the words I speak to myself. I am still learning how to be a Godly wife. I pursue it everyday. It's been 13 years and I'm still marveling at this amazing mystery and seeking to measure how I function as a bride against God's word. Humbled daily by the knowledge that my marriage exists to glorify God in a beautiful portrait of Christ's love for His bride the church. 


Yikes, tangent coming on. Note to self: don't try to fit it all in one post!


So for now its enough just to say hello. And if you are reading this, thanks for taking a few minutes to see what we are up to.
