The Eye of the Beholder

The name of this blog was my husband's idea. He said it was a great way to incorporate everything I wanted to, and it had a double meaning for him. He's sweet. Like most women, I don't look in the mirror every morning and say "Man! Look at HER!"... in fact, I don't even think I see a mirror most days. I'm not complaining. I love this life I've been blessed with. I have a ridiculously awesome husband... one I never could have dreamed up in a million years... and our kids are not only unbelievably good-looking, but they're very GOOD kids. I'm surrounded by friends and family who love God and love us. It's incredible. And when I think about where it all came from and how it all got started, I'm flabbergasted. It's impossible. But here it is. I sure never thought I'd have all this at 23... I just look around me at everything I've been given and know that it's worth everything. I'm grateful.
