I’m Michele. I’m an at home Early Childhood Educator owner operator. I have been working with children for almost 30 years. I am an amateur photographer. I love taking pictures of sunsets. They are one of GOD’s beautiful creations. I love to travel! I love a good ice coffee! Anything mint is my weakness. I enjoy spending time with family and friends. I enjoy watching sprint car racings and college football. Go Hawkeyes!
My husband and I married in South Dakota in 2002. In 2004, we made a big leap to move to south central Iowa, where we have been ever since. Over the years life has thrown some big curve balls. That is how life works. Life would be boring if we didn’t have those curve balls. For the past 22 years of our marriage, we have been through so much. GOD has walked with us the whole way. Even though faith has been tested, more than once, my faith has become even stronger as the older I get. I’m starting to understand that stuff happens for a reason, that I can only control things about me.
When moving to Iowa, my husband had a good job with a very well-known company. At this time, I was taking a break from child care and looking into other avenues. Needless to say, I was lost, and I wasn’t listening to GOD’s plan. I quickly realized that child care was my calling. Moving out of state was like moving to a whole new word. We left everything we knew behind us in South Dakota. I will not lie, it was stressful. This move was out of my comfort zone. For the past 17 years I called South Dakota home. Moving to Iowa was the best thing that happened to us. Once we got settled into our new place, being in Iowa felt like this exactly where we needed to be. Hard to believe we have been in Iowa for 20 years now. Man, time flies.
I have journaling for a while now. Someone brought up starting a blog, as other could relate. So, here I am. Starting a new adventure.
Have a blessed day!
Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also. John 14:1-3
