It had been a hot minute since I have written a word, but I'm finally ready to start documenting life and musings again. I thought it would be beneficial to do an introduction post since it has been so long.
Hi! My name is Alana.
Here's a list of things to paint a picture of who I am:
- Daughter of the most high king
- Wife to the hard working love of my life
- Mother to two children I birthed, one that I have the privilege to help raise (daughter from another mother.), and the sweet boy growing inside me who will be the cherry on top of our family.
- Stay at home/ part time work from home mom
- Self proclaimed singer
- Born and raised Texan country girl, through and through.
The bulk of my time and energy is poured into my husband and my kids. I work hard to meet their daily needs, and find myself feeling like I've fallen short half the time. In between the cracks I try to fill my own cup by working out regularly and spending time with friends. Quiet time with God is often on the back burner. Even though I regret this every time I catch myself having a short fuse with someone I love. You'd think I'd learn to ensure that valuable time is top priority, huh? What can I say, I'm a work in progress.
All this to say, I am so looking forward to allowing God to speak through my simple life, in hopes that maybe it will reach just one person.
