Blog Party!

It’s Begun!

Janice & Susan over at 5 Minutes for Mom are hosting this Ultimate Blog Party to bring together Moms in the blogging community! This is the first blog party I’ve participated in… and look forward to getting to know other bloggin mom’s in the blog community.

     I am a child of God, wife, Mom of two boys, daughter, sister, friend, daughter-in-law, granddaugher, neice, aunt, cousin, …
I mostly am a stay-at-home-mom caring for my children and disabled mother whom has fibromyalgia. Our heavenly Father has gifted me with a Helper’s Heart which is my buisness - being a caregiver for the elderly with a few friends from church! God has blessed us to care for the elderly when needed. I work the night shift while my husband is at home with our children and my mother. I also volunteer at my church to assist with any computer work needed to be done. I love working on the computer designing different things and helping out where needed. I keep the following up to date and continue working where the Lord leads me to help out: Children’s Newsletter, Blog, Youth Blog, Youth webiste, PowerPoint Presentations, Flyers, Sign-up sheets for Bible Studies, etc. I am excited to share the gifts He has graciousley given me and honored to learn where I need to allow Him to work on & strengthen me.
     I love to spend quiet time with our Father, read, sing, spend time with my family and friends. We have two dogs… a miniture dachshund, & a white siberian husky; and we also have a short-haired calico cat.
     I am blogging my journey as He leads me to share here – mostly this year it is on my journey through the Bible. I look forward to trying my best to be the example He wants me to be, bringing up my children the best He wills for me to do, and caring for, helping, & mentoring others as He leads me to them.

This party is going to be awesome! There are “door prizes” you could say, as many of our blogging moms are giving away things for guests of the party! Even if you are not a blogger, no worries, you can still party hop and win prizes too. (In order to be eligible as a party guest for the prize draw, you need to visit and comment on at least 20 participating blog parties by clicking on the URL links in the Mr Linky – that big table of links at the bottom of the UBP post).

Please visit 5 Minutes for Mom UBP to learn all of the rules for participating! There are so many prizes to choose from… it’s hard to pick. My top three choices are:

• #7 Bead Dangle Photo Tile Necklace offered by Elemental Memories!
• #101 Devotional Bible for women offered by Jubilee on Earth!
• #104 / 105 Book Package offered by Melissa Mashburn! Melissa is offering two different packages… I’d like either one as the books mentioned “Confessions of a Prayer Wimp” book by Mary Pierce or “Living in Love with Jesus” book by Dee Brestin & Kathy Troccoli both sound like wonderful reads!

 The devotional Bible and Book Packages can be very useful in mentoring others! If my top three… well four … are already chosen I’d love any of the following: #77 (as I to am a Baltimore-native and love supporting special causes!), #61, #60, #20, #5, #99, #49, #24. Thank you for the opportunity to win these awesome prizes and sharing my blog with others!

Have a blessed week!! HL
