the secret life of a soccer mom

There's a new show called the Secret Life of a Soccer Mom, which invites a handful of women to live out their secret dreams.  From what I can tell without actually watching the show, these women have the opportunity to do the things they would have done if they hadn't chosen to stay home with their children.  The show promises them that they can, in fact, have it all!

Chip asked me what I would do if the show came knocking on my front door.  Honestly, I wouldn't do anything different from what I am doing right now.  The truth is, you can't have it all.  Life is all about choices, and the choices we make help define who we are. I am committed to living a life of no regrets!  I thank God for allowing me to live the greatest adventure I can imagine.  And when trials come my way and my life seems less than ideal, I will trust God to give me the grace I need to stay thankful, loving, and obedient to Jesus.

Philippians 4:12-13  I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty.  I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.  I can do everything through HIM who gives me strength.

The one thing I could think of that I have been wanting to do, but just haven't done it yet, is starting a blog.  So here goes!  No regrets!
