Beginnings

All stories have a beginning. This is the start of something new for me. A way to share my story in a way that allows freedom. Anonymity. I have been a mom for over five years. I have two beautiful little girls that keep me running from when they wake up, until way after they go to bed. Often I have a hard time reflecting. Thinking about the constant go of life is almost as exhausting as keeping up with my girls. But, I realize I need an outlet. Something to release the constant internal battle in my brain. Relieve the pressure so to speak. So... here goes nothing.

My girls have been a big challenge to my faith. But, not in the way you may think. As most parents will likely say, "I didn't realize how selfish I still was until I was a parent!" Man is that truth for me. Getting married was an eye opener, but having kids... Could I be doing more wrong in my walk with God?! Sure didn't seem possible. God is so full of grace. Rather than beat me down, He has often been gentle in His reminders of my short comings. Am I imperfect? Yes. Do I need reminding? Yes. Is He harsh about it? No. He has brought to light many of my stumbling about moments through those teaching moments I have with my own children. Thus my title, Pint Size Convictions.

This blog will be where I share those "ah ha" moments while raising my daughters. Praising Him for his grace and mercy when I least deserve it, remembering in a day what is truly important and thanking Jesus for the many gifts He has given me.

Join me.

Sincerely,
A Mom Being Molded
