Hi. Welcome to my blog! I'm glad you've joined me for a little one-way chat! Come on in. Pull up a chair and have a nice, hot cup of coffee while I share with you some of the things I've learned through the years and what life is like for a mother of ten children. LOL. Yes, I really do have ten children. Nope. No twins or triplets. All one by one. No, no adoptions either. All with the same father. No, I'm not Roman Catholic. Uh-huh. Not Mormon either. Just a Bible-believing Christian who believes that children do not cease to be blessings past number two. So now you know a few things about my situation. What topics exactly will this blog explore?
First off ,all things baby! There's no getting around it – I am a baby lover! Just ask my kids - I always admire every baby I see. And having one in the house for the last 22 years has been such a tremendous blessing to me! Of course, I've learned quite a few things about them along the way - practical things like how to handle a total blow-out diaper when you forgot the diaper bag and other important babyhood emergencies, how to make your baby go back to sleep within 20 minutes when he wakes up with croup two hours after you've gone to bed, the fastest, surest way to cure diaper rash, how we avoided ear tubes. You know, stuff like that.
But I have lots of other avenues to explore with you: homeschooling a large family, home management tips and mistakes, my approach to health and sicknesses, surviving raising five boys, surviving raising five girls! Approaches to saving money, of course, has to come up. Nobody has ten children and doesn't know how to save money! Staying married to the same man for 25 years and still loving it – now that's a rarity in this day and age. My journey of getting healthier and thinner. Sign language. Raising a child with Down Syndrome. Depression. Home birth. Homeopathy. Organic gardening. Lots of paths to explore together.
My husband will be dropping by from time to time on my blog but he's a great guy and tells the funniest stories.
I'm sure I'll post about all kinds of things – recipes, reviews, funny stories, opinions - basically whatever suits my fancy. And I have lots of fancies!
Well, thanks for droppin' by! I gotta run now but come back and visit me again soon!

What it sounds like is YOU being YOU only on the internet! And you'll be a blessing to millions just like you are to me.
Thanks, Jackie! You are as usual so sweet!
How refreshing... a momma of a large family, who readily accepts God's blessings, desires to be healthy, homeschools, and more. I am eager to hear more. Thanks for the comment on my site, and I'll be back!
Just something to consider- your blog doesn't allow anonymous comments, but it would really serve your readers if it did, just because not everyone is with blogger. :)
Thank you, Stephanie, for your encouraging comments! As a newbie blogger, I certainly appreciate all the blogging advice I can get. I'll work on allowing anonymous comments! Thanks again!
