Thanks for stopping by my blog, feel free to snoop around.  I’d love for you to leave a comment, but if you just want to watch from a distance, that’s fine by me.

I’m a pastor’s wife, mom of three, and aspiring writer.

I’ve fought with the prospect of writing, tried to talk myself out of it, but as much as I try, I just can’t get away from it.  So, here goes.  I’m on a journey to reach 10,000 hours (Malcolm Gladwell’s book, Outliers taught me all about it) and see where it takes me.  Can I get there?  I hope so!  But either way, I sure am enjoying the process.

I started this blog in 2007 when I wanted to keep friends and family updated on our growing family.  Now it has grown into blogging about faith, spirituality, and how it relates to our every day life.  My everyday life is currently filled with keeping a home, caring for 3 kids, and serving in ministry, so you can expect one of those three to be in most of my writing.  I also write an occasional book review and share a weekly update on where I am in my journey as a writer.

A few of my favs…I love traveling and being close to the ocean. My ideal afternoon would be reading, writing, and drinking a grande nonfat latte at the nearest Starbucks.

Me & My Love, Filipe
