First off, I want to say thank you for all your support with my blogging endeavors so far. Jumping in to this whole blogging thing has been an adventure, and I appreciate you coming along with me.
I hope you stick with me over the next few weeks because it’s about to get a little crazier!
Recently, I felt compelled to join in on an online writing challenge called Write 31 Days. This means that I’ll be posting EVERY DAY in October about a certain topic that I have chosen. Right now I’m in a whirlwind of preparations because the challenge starts October 1. However, while I’m a little nervous since I’m used to posting only 2 or 3 times a week, I’m also pretty excited to stretch myself and step out of what has become more comfortable.
I’ve named my 31-day series “Out of the Mouth of Babes” because I’m going to be sharing some of the encouraging, funny, and wise-beyond-their-years challenging things my boys have said. It always amazes me how God can bless us and what He can teach us through the simple words of a child.
If you miss a day, don’t worry. I’ve made a nice little home for every post in the series over on my “Write 31 Days” page. I’ll link each new day’s entry there, so you can find any you may have missed or revisit those that you particularly enjoyed, whenever you’d like.
As I head into this challenge, if you could pray for me, specifically that God would give me the WORDS to write, as well as patience, angelically-behaving children, a home that stays spotless, a very understanding (more so than normal) hubby, and good sleep (sometimes when I’m in the middle of projects, my mind just won’t shut off), I would really appreciate it!
I’m hoping you will be challenged, encouraged, and amused by what comes “Out of the Mouth of Babes.”
So, deep breath for me, and let’s see what God does through this.
