As we embark on another school year there were a couple of things "I" wanted to do differently. First I really am tired of the lack of disciplined devotional time I have with the Lord. It is so sporadic and I *know* how much my life is blessed when I am faithful. I am a faithful wife, mom, friend, daughter - why is my time with my Jesus so difficult? I realized a couple of years ago that I am way more like Martha than Mary - are you sick? I will feed you, take care of you etc. Sit at the feet of Jesus - umm no someone needs a meal.

This school year will be different - I will be different. I bought a coffee maker, the automatic one. The idea of a hot cup of coffee in the morning with my bible mmmm sounds so sweet. And it is working, my sweet teenager is setting it up at night and I awake to the wonderful smell.

That was my first goal, set and met! Now comes the faithful and diligent part... which brings me to the second differnece. My new blog. I am so new to this. Bear with me as I figure it all out. I think this blog will be a place for me to remain accountable as well as a spot to direct friends and family to all we are doing in the daily life of our school.

Enjoy the journey
