About Me

the momma
I am a sinner, saved by grace. I love Jesus, my husband (Tyler) and my children, but, sadly, not always in that order. This blog serves as a scrapbook for our family; it's my place to record new memories, as well as reminisce about old ones. Our goal - as a family - is to serve the Lord with all of our hearts, souls, minds, and strength. Sometimes we fail miserably - or at least, I do; thank God His mercies are new every morning.
