I'm not a Mommy Blogger

I have five children, four living, nine grandchildren, and our first great-grandchild.  We had several other boys living with us over the years, so I have a lot of Mommy experience to share.

The deal is; No one ever asks for me to share it.

That doesn't hurt my feelings. I was the recipient of unrequested advice quite often when I was a young mother.

I still am.

I asked for advice too. Why?  Because I knew there were a lot of women who had been where I was, and some of them had really good adult children.

Some of them had really crappy adult children because the kids refused to be obedient to wise parents.

I'm saying all that to say this; I completely understand why moms do not want advice from older moms. They think older moms live in the stoneage don't know anything about parenting. It's true and you know it!

My thought is, why are you marrying our kids if we raised them wrong? Just sayin'.

ANYWAY, the real reason for this post is, as the title says, I am not a Mommy Blogger. I am not full of parenting tips, picky eater ideas, and all that.

I LOVE mommy bloggers! In a lot of ways, it helps other moms realize they are not alone in a career that seems determined to put you in the booby-hatch.

But my blog is not about that. I KNOW I'm supposed to be doing this blog. And I am a crappy kid! Because I am walking outside of obedience.

Let's get real about what kind of blogger I am.

I am not like my friends Linny Saunders and Peg Forrest.

They are two of the sweetest and tenderest women I know and present the Word of God in their lives so adeptly. (Sometimes I wish I were called to be like them! *covet-covet*!)

I am not like Matt Walsh, or John Branyan. I wish I was some days!

But, I am me and that's all I am.

I've been called to stir it up. Make you think. Shake the rattle and rock the boat.

I will continue to do so. Even though it means I'm not your favorite blogger; or person; or friend.

 Ex-friend. bleah.

So, if you would like some advice about parenting surviving raising children, you can always ask. I can't tell you what to do with YOUR kids, but I can tell you what I did with mine.

                                                                 
                                                                          I Wish!!


If you want to be challenged to walk closer with Jesus, and grow a deeper relationship, or just need a laugh or two, I'm here.

So, pray for me to walk  in obedience with this blog, Make comments if you like.

I'm not always gentle, but I hope I'm compassionate.
