I am happily married to an amazing military man. We have two little boys who infuse every moment of every day with creativity and energy. I was educated at home, and am now teaching our children - second generation homeschoolers! We are currently on a journey to try to add to our family through adoption. We are seeking God's guidance, one day at a time, waiting for Him to show us the next member of our crazy crew. In the meantime, I try every day to become more like Jesus Christ, and to love like HE does. If you want you can try and catch me at bethylovesandy@yahoo.com

My Blog Title Verse

"For the Lord gives wisdom. From His mouth come knowledge and understanding." Proverbs 2:6 NKJV 
The Message translation puts it this way "God gives out Wisdom free, is plainspoken in Knowledge and Understanding."

It's a small, small world after all

 My sister Emilee is addicted to Pinterest. She recently decided that she should introduce me, and try to make me addicted too.

 It may be working... but that isn't the point of this discussion.

 What struck me while roaming around the amazing world of Pinterest is how very, very small the world is now that we are all connected through the internet.

 You see, on Pinterest you create "boards" where you "pin" things that interest you - things that you want to remember. One of the boards I created was, surprise, "green living". When I searched Pinterest for green living ideas I stumbled upon MYSELF.

  I cannot express how extremely weird that was.

 Someone had read my blog about homemade bodywash, pinned it, and it had passed through the Pinternet world.

 I wondered why I had gotten two comments on it lately!

 In some ways it made me want to remove my children's names from my blog and quit all discussions about where we live. I understand now why my sister quit blogging when she had her daughter! But we are out there already, and I cannot quit now. Some moments the words get stuck, but it is impossible to keep them contained completely. I need to write. So we stay...

 Right now - these pictures from a few days before we left Missouri have been begging to come out and play.

This dew covered spiderweb is what started the adventure.



This field of beauty in the midst of construction was only one street over - just a direction we had never ventured.

Hard at work

Enjoying the sunshine

And sharing nicely, at peace with the world around them. 


We weren't thrilled to be in MO. The 4 months there were a stressful, crazy, random. But, we were together, learning, and, I hope, remembering to enjoy the beauty around us. 

 Blessings,

3 words of wisdom, wonder and wit:

  1. Since I've had to do some serious hunting to find two people recently I can honestly tell you that anyone can find out just about anything about you for $9.95. So although I try not to make it really really easy, I'd be fooling myself to think I could cloak my identity or anything else about me or my kids. The information age is here to stay (unless the zombies get us) so I don't stress it. I just make sure my kids are up on "stranger danger".

  2. I think that is just awesome! You are pinterest famous!!!! :)
    I looked back at that post to see what it was. It was interesting to read your update on it. Funny how things can be revisited and probably should be re evaluated that we post on the web.

  3. Very beautiful shots. I love how you pull the good memories to the surface and leave them there.
