Hhhmmm... My first blog!

Being a mom is a challenging and rewarding task.  If anyone had ever told me I would be a stay at home mom and enjoy every minute of it, I would have called them crazy.  Then my daughter was born, and for a short time I returned to work.  I hated having to leave her behind each day.  It killed me, I don't know how working moms keep doing it, day after day.  It's so hard to leave those little faces, and know that some one else may be the first to see your child crawl or walk.  They will be the one cheering your baby on as they reach each mile stone in their young lives.  But thankfully God heard my prayers and our situation changed so I could stay home with our daughter.  Granted God didn't change things how I expected, but his will is perfect, so I happily trudged along the path he set before me.  Life is funny in that you just never know what tomorrow may bring.  I am quite sure this blog is all over the place, but it's my first one, and I am tired.  So a great big rasberry to any one who doesn't like it! Just kidding, of course.  So enough about my journey here, let's talk about what I am doing now that I am here.  I have been trying my hand at doing a lot of "from scratch cooking"!  I know scarey right.  But with the weather being so hot lately, not much creative baking is being done.  I just can't face heating up the house.  But tomorrow I am hopeing to be able to try my hand at a loaf of bread, not done in the bread machine.  I did go out and buy bread today, but there is something about making it yourself.  I really enjoy such little things as that.  I am also hoping to get my sewing machine back out soon.  I have many quilt squares to cut, and sew.  I also want to make the cloth book that I have the fabric for, before my daughter is too old to appreciate it!  I do enjoy sewing but it is at times hard to do with an active toddler running around.  Just yesterday I came in from stepping outside just for a minute, to find her eating pasta from the trash can.  Who ever said being a mom was boring, never was one!  Well I suppose that will do for now!
