Inspiration

For a few years now I've had a desire to blog. Once, I even created a blog site, wrote the first post, and then successfully DELETED the entire thing because I didn't think I was ready or capable for the entire adventure.  Recently, I've felt an urging to try this whole adventure again and so here we go...

My goal for this site is to be purposeful with my posts and allow you guys a small glimpse into our paths in life.  There are three AH-MAY-ZING ladies from whom I have gleaned inspiration for the blog (and my daily life), so I've decided to make this first post a tribute to them.

Lynn's the one in the middle. :)

                                             
First there's this fabulous mother of two who is being purposeful and adventurous in the lovely town of Yorkshire located in fantastic England.  Lynn is a kind-hearted, book-loving, photography buff who works alongside her husband teaching and shepherding others.  She is such an encouragement to me, and I am happy that she is a part of my extended family. You can check out her family's paths of purpose by visiting her blog Wherever I Am.

Katie

                                                 
Next, I must credit my FANTABULOUS sister-in-law Katie for her blogging inspiration.  She began her adventures in blogging when my nephew was just a wee one and is using the blog as a sort of scrapbook for the family. (She's even filled up the entire space for one blog and had to start another!!) This chickie is the mom to 3 (almost 4) little blessings, and she ROCKS.MY.SOCKS! Katie exudes sweet and makes everyone want to be a better person. She and my brother-in-law, along with my neices and nephew, are heading to Africa to follow the path that our Father cleared a little over a decade ago.  We hate to see them go, but we can't WAIT to visit and join them in their purposeful living.  You can check out their adventures when you visit A Glimpse of Our Vapor.

Kathryn

                                                   
Last, but certainly not least, is this amazing lady.  Kathryn mothers well and lives purposefully EVERY.DAY. Her heart is very much UNLIKE the Grinch's and, instead of being three sizes too small, is ten sizes bigger than everyone else's.  As I think about the Fruits of the Spirit from Galatians there isn't ONE that she lacks! She has perfect fashion sense, perfect hair, and perfect purpose.  She's a real-life Mary Poppins--practically perfect in every way.  I can only DREAM of being like her when I grow up. The Father has blessed Kathryn with three amazing kids that she shepherds well.  Since they are all almost grown she has decided to begin her own blogging experience.  Woodbank Lane is a bit Southern and a lot classy...just like her.  She's got some delicious recipes posted, so check her out when you get a chance.
