And so it begins......

I wouldn't exactly call me safe or reckless for that matter. I believe God wants us somewhere in the middle. Prepared for the adventure of the day , through His word and prayer yet ready for the unexpected. So why blogging? I thought really it was something only teenagers, philosophers, people with great education and thoughts do. And then today I woke up without a voice. And it is with that I believe I can use this vehicle for no other reason than to speak. So for now, just for today what would I say? Well it starts at the beginning...and therefore the title. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? You may think I am starting with sarcasm. Oh not true. I love my life! For those who know me...can say....ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I have a Mom who is suffering from cancer. I have a Dad who is 60% blind. I battle a disease everyday that could at any moment take my life. And then there is the INSANITY of yesterday that effected so many people and their people and their people.......and changed my spiritual world forever. And yet I am not being sarcastic. Are you kidding me that I woke this morning a forgiven and FREE child of God. The wife of the greatest husband in the entire world. The Mom to three (two I gave birth to and one my son chose) incredible, intelligent, amazing young people who will rock this world! The daughter of the most courageous woman I have ever met. Are you kidding me? I wouldn't trade this adventure for anything. So if you want philosophy, proper grammar, scandal and intrigue....don't read my blog! But If want to occasionally laugh and sometimes cry with me please read!
