Welcome

First of all, Welcome! To anyone that might read this, please excuse any random thoughts I have. I used to write back in high school but it's been a few years since then.


I want to give you a few reasons why I have started this blog. As my life has started to change dramatically, I needed a place to get a few thoughts out. Second, I always think, if I'm going through it, I must be the only one. I know it's not true so I'm hoping others will/can relate to how I think or feel. There, that's out of the way!


So I sit here tonight after having a "chat" with an old middle/high school friend. It makes me think of my growing years. I think of how God has moved through my life without my knowing it. He moved in a very strange way! In my first 18 years, I moved about 19 times. I had 3 half brothers, 1 half sister, 2 stepbrothers, and 1 stepsister. This also means while I had 1 mother, I grew up knowing I had 3 fathers. With that also came it's own set of problems.


Starting my new decade I met my husband. What he would teach me would be nothing short of a miracle. He is also the way I came to know New Life in a Cemetery. Within a year of our being married, he started work on a grounds crew at a local cemetery. Little did I know this cemetery would become part of our everyday life for many years!
