The Official Re-Launch

For all of you reading that aren’t following my facebook or twitter you may be a little confused why after so many months you’re seeing posts on my blog again.

Well, it’s probably the reason that most people will hand out the advice to never burn a bridge…you just never know if you’re going to cross it again.

If you look back you can read why I stopped blogging. God had brought me to a period of reflection within and cleaning up some aspects of my life. It required a bit more listening and a lot less talking. It also required A LOT of time. Add to that a new baby and a new lifestyle and God was right, I couldn’t handle keeping up with my blog during that season of my life.

A few months ago I started having blog topics pop up in my head. I couldn’t figure out what to do with them so I just wrote them down in a journal for myself and moved on. This kept happening more frequently and I soon found myself WANTING to blog again (something that hadn’t happened in a while). So I thought and prayed about it and felt that it was time to go back to blogging. But I knew that I wanted to do a re-launch, not just a post to follow up the old ones. So as you can see, I created a new layout – something that’s a bit easier to manage and reads more like a journal than a website. If you look at the menu you will also notice that I have cut down the topics I’ll be blogging about. As much as I LOVE music and really enjoy talking about it and doing interviews – it doesn’t fit with what I’m feeling called to write about (and let’s be honest, being a stay at home mom doesn’t allow much time for discovering new music). Now guys, before you assume there will now be nothing for you to read, I ask you to please give me a chance. I know that so much of my call is to reach young girls and women but I really do believe God has given me some topics that will relate to you personally and that will help you in relationships with these women I’m writing for.

Personally, you didn’t miss THAT much in my life. The biggest thing has been the weekly changes in the 1st year of a child’s life. It’s amazing how fast she grew and developed and has become the happy, funny little girl that she is at days away from her first birthday.

I’m looking forward to the “new” blog. And I’m definitely looking forward to more discussions, comments and feedback from my new and old readers. You can still see all of my old posts by using the tags on the right or the search field – I welcome your comments and feedback, even if it’s a post from 2 years ago!

So this is it – the official re-launch…welcome back friends. Let the journey begin :
