A leap of faith

Isn't that what it is when we get married. I mean really. You can't really know what someone will be like as your husband until they are. You can't really know what someone will be like as a father until they are. So you take a leap of faith.


I put quite a bit of faith in David. Especially when it came to the kind of father he would be. I'd only seen him in action with children a few times. But that was really just a glimpse of him with kids, nothing else. Being a father to your his own kiddos would be totally different. And so, a leap of faith I took.



And I'm so glad I did. We are two lucky girls.

State Ravines

1. I love to be outside.
2. I love finding new (free!) places to explore.
Most Saturdays wile I was growing up, my family could be found somewhere in the Florida sunshine. We were always enjoying the great recreation Florida has to offer. My mom instilled in each of her children a love and appreciation of nature and all of Heavenly Fathers creations . So naturally while my family was visiting we ventured to out to the Black Creek Ravines Conservation Area in Middleburg. I've seen the sign a million times driving south down Blanding, and finally decided to go check it outIt was a beautiful day, and we hiked and ate out packed lunch. Beautiful scenery, perfect weather, and a great new place to play.
