Because My Mom Loves Me

Because my mom loves me, I know how to balance my checkbook.

Because my mom loves me, I can also cook, garden, and sew.

Because my mom loves me, I know the difference between right and wrong.

Because my mom loves me, she made me do my chores.

Because my mom loves me, she made me drink that nasty Shaklee vitamin tonic.

Because my mom loves me, she let me make a mess in the kitchen.

Because my mom loves me, I know how to wear my big-girl panties.

Because my mom loves me, I have a strong faith.

Because my mom loves me, I know how to love and be loved in return.

Because my mom loves me, I am truly blessed.

About Me

Hi There! I’m Kelly. I am a wife, mom, light seeker, homemaker, and storyteller. From an empty nest to an abundant life, all it took was a little time, a lot of faith, and the courage to see my life differently.

You can read more about my story here.

So now, armed with my trusty Canon camera, here is where I share my journey to live an inspired and intentional life.

Welcome to my little corner of the interwebs!
