My first blog

I have been inspired, by the many people I know who have blogs, to start one of my own. It is such a nice way of keeping people up to date on that ever changing whirlwind of motherhood and family life, and a great way to organize your thoughts and reflections. I have been enjoying reading the blogs of other friends, and have finally been convinced to start one for my family and me.
Its amazing how much can happen in such a small amount of time. My husband Peter and I were married in May 2004, had our son Dominic in February 2005, and our daughter Stella in March 2006! Life is wonderful... and busy... and surprising! Just when I think that I have things under control, God sends me one more thing to knock me off my feet and onto my knees in humility, thanksgiving, and a plea for His grace and help! Its a whirlwind alright, but I wouldn't change a thing about it. Except for my trust in God to increase. That is most certainly one of the lessons God has been teaching me at this time in my life. It is very much a work-in-progress, but God is gentle, compassionate, and patient with me, and obviously very generous, as I have the most wonderful husband, and the two most beautiful, amazing children in the world, who make me laugh and cry for joy! I will have to continue writing at another time, as my two greatest gifts from God, have just awoken!
