Welcome to The Mamafour Journals!!
What is a Mamafour, you ask? Pretty simple. A Jesus loving, God fearing, stay-at-home and homeschooling, Wife to one, Mom of four! And this is my journey...that is busy, and messy, and crazy, and funny, and scary, and lovely, and has just been overall BLESSED so much more than I deserve.
I'm a writer at heart. For whatever reason, God made me too timid to comfortably speak face-to-face with people, yet I still have this strong need as well, to express myself and share my life and experiences with others through the one way that I do feel confident communicating...the written word.
Sadly, the written word doesn't always convey all the truth and flavor that can come from real-life interaction, but it's the best I can do. So, as you read my thoughts and words, if they can be taken in two different ways, CHOOSE to believe that they were meant in the best way. Because more times than not, that is exactly how they were meant.
Anyway, what is The Mamafour Journals about? Life. However, it comes at me. You will get to live life through my eyes, and hopefully learn right along with me through my own experiences. Experience the struggles a Christian, homeschooling mom in this day and age faces. Take comfort that perfection does not exist here, and that I am merely trying to do my best with this life and the gifts that God has given me.
How often will I be checking in? I don't know. As often as I need to, I suppose.
Without further ado let me introduce you to the daily cast members.
Of course, there's me...Mamafour. I am a mid-30s gal, that loves Jesus, my family, reading, writing, HOT BATHS, and just LEARNING!!
Then there's also Daddyfour. We've been married for 14 years, (started dating in high school--yep!!), and he blesses us with the ability for me to stay home with the kids and homeschool them, while he works locally as an engineer.
Son1, the ALMOST teenager. He enjoys computer games and Boy Scouts.
Son2, the new 10 year old. He is a Jack of all Trades, but particularly loves Japanese Anime right now. This Pokemon, Bakugan, Yu-Gi-Oh...
Son3, the sweetest 6 year old. He loves cars, basketball, and computer games.
And last is our OnlyDaughter. She's the baby, but not a baby anymore as she's almost 4 now. The only girl of our bunch, but truly the girliest girl you will ever meet despite that fact!!
Now that you know a little about who we are, let the fun begin!!
