About Me
- Jody
- Hi. I am a wife and mother of 7- six of them are at home and underfoot, one is in Heaven and they have all captured my heart! I am 42, but feel like I have lived through more than some people do in a lifetime. I have definitely had some rough spots...but have challenged myself to not let those events consume or define me. I try to look at life in a positive light...and most often that means I look to God for the strength to do so. He is the source of my joy and happiness in life- even in the midst of chaos at times. Ultimately I hope to live a life that inspires or challenges other people to be their best. Kind of like a "white Oprah." I mean that with deep respect.

Jody, I often have this exact realization when doling out advice, answering Facebook posts, blog posts, etc. I think I need to listen to myself more and I would be better off. :) I enjoy all of your wisdoms that you share.
Yes. so true. It's much easier to think it than to believe it. Hope you had a lovely Sunday.
Well I know your readership far exceeds the intention for these little blog chains, but I have been reading your blog since back in 2006. You were actually the very first blog I really ever followed and were my introduction into blogging! So anyway I have nominated you for the Liebster award, or am inviting you to participate in the Liebster project or… anyway I am still a little fuzzy about pay it forward blog awards but you are on my list of 11. If you do decide to participate I look forward to your Liebster post! The link to my own Liebster post and the details on how to participate is here:http://stumpsandbeans.com/2013/02/15/this-intimate-personal-and-vulnerable-side-of-blogging-sh-is-going-to-take-some-getting-used-to/
Best to you Jody! Seven years later I still enjoy checking in on your blog :)
that is beautiful!!
I love to visit your blog site. your number 1 song, "unknown hymn" was one of the songs at my mother's funeral back in October, and to hear it again brings me bittersweet comfort. bless you.
So very very true!! Sometimes it has to be a daily choice, too. This summer my husband and I almost called it quits and I had a big decision to make. I actually left for 3 weeks with my daughter and had serious thoughts of leaving my husband after almost 19 years of marriage. But I allowed God to work in my heart and I came back after a lot of prayer, bible reading and soul searching. I had to allow God to work in me and give me Grace to fight even when I didn't think I wanted to...
