Mother of Sons

Who am I and why do I write a blog.

I am a Christian woman. I am a daughter. I am a sister. I am a wife. I am a friend.  I am a mother of two sons. I am a grandmother of three granddaughters. I've been married to the love of my life for almost 35 years. I'm an athlete. I'm a knitter. I'm a Sunday school teacher to first graders.

I've raised two sons. They are now 30 and 27 year old men. I am proud of them and the kind of men they have become. Their dad and I can take credit for creating and giving  birth to them. So much of who they become is predestined. They were a gift from God. My husband and I  were a unified team. Never contradicting each other in discipline or anything else in front of our sons. We were firm and yet loving! We turned much of what we did over to God. Are they perfect, no. Were there trials, yes. I'm here to tell you, we survived! They brought lots of joy to our lives and still do.

My blog is just a place to share what I know and what worked in raising these two guys. I may also tell you what didn't work. Perhaps you can learn something from me. Or maybe, just get a laugh from something that we experienced.

So, here is blog #1. Wish me luck. I hope you enjoy!
