New Year, New Look

Well, as I mentioned before, I thought it was high time for a new look around here. And not only a new look, but a new name as well. What better time to implement these changes than the New Year. Do you agree?

A long time ago, this blog became less about Ada and more about how her unexpected arrival has rearranged all aspects of our life. In a good way, of course.

One night at the weekly women's bible study that I attend, I shared that I often feel like I fell asleep in college, and I woke up in this life now--wife, stay at home mom, etc. Some days I can't really remember how I got here, but here I am. And that is where this life I've found comes from. Because most days it feels like I just woke up one day, and I found myself here. I am thankful to be here, but it is a daily challenge. I am in process of learning how to manage the house, budget our money, be mom to Ada, wife to Scott, and remain me in the midst of it all. This blog has become a place where I can reflect on how God is changing me, shaping me, and breaking me in the process.

I love your new look and how well you put your post! Is there a past post where you describe the CVS savings game? I remember reading about your finds a while back but not the way to do it.
