Mothering

I really love the Internet. Information is available in an instant and supporting debates becomes easier when you can back up your opinion with facts.

This is probably why the natural birthing movement is seeing great momentum. One blogger links to another who links to another (so on and so forth). The same is with magazines, news articles, books, movies, etc. Everyone is very open with their information.

Skip to my latest find - Mothering magazine. I signed up for a year digital subscription and am captivated. I'm sure many of the future articles that I'll add to my list on the right will be from this magazine.

Our Beliefs

Hello!

Some of you may already know S. and I personally. But for those of you who don't, we are two normal people. We work together in the insurance industry and are hopelessly devoted to each other.

S. and I believe that Jesus is the Son of God and the only way to go to Heaven is through a personal relationship with Him. "16. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son." John 3:16-18

A word that defines us is crunchy, which means all-natural, just as God intended, pure wholesome goodness for ourselves and our bodies. Jesus tells us that our bodies are a temple to God and we must treat them accordingly. "19. Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20. you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body." 1 Corinth. 6:19-20

I am very passionate about pregnancy and birth and what a natural, amazing process it is for women. This blog has definitely changed faces a few times. It started out as my weight loss journey, which was supposed to morph into my "yay! we're pregnant, follow us on this journey" blog. Unfortunately, Jesus had other intentions and it's included everything that has happened in our lives trying to conceive, the process to adopt Baby G., as well as other topics that we are severely passionate about.

We are just striving to be two decent citizens who will leave a positive mark in the world. We can't wait for to have our family grow and thrive.
