On Your Mark...

I have never fully understood the blogging concept.  I still don't and yet here I am posting for the first time. Yay!!

Get Set...

I am not sure what I will even post about.  How do I get started??  I have been searching the internet trying to figure out which blog sites are best, how to get started, etc.  I have gone to multiple different blogs that I want to go back to later.  How do you even follow a blog that you like?  I have my work cut out for me!!

Go!!!

I finally figured that I will never do it unless I just "GO!"   How exciting!!!  I wonder if it is like Facebook where I can post 10 times a day.....  or is that bad blog style???  How will I ever decide what to post - I have so many ideas and projects that I want to work on!!  How do I organize all of my crazy thoughts and put them here and not go overboard?  I wonder if I can edit it after I post in case I get out of hand one day...

Hence the name of my blog, "Not Sew Perfect Mom."  I know that I am not perfect (but I love to sew)!!  I have tons of room to grow as a Christian, as a daughter, as a sister, as a wife and as a parent.

It seems like all of the blogs that I have ever looked at show women that have it all together.  They appear so perfect, unlike me....  I dislike cleaning and cooking (except baking - that I don't mind).  I am not into girly things....  I wear minimal make-up, I don't get my nails done, I have never owned a Coach bag, and definitely don't do designer brands.  Sewing is my one girly thing!!  And I am not perfect in that either!!!

My goal of this blog is to keep me focused on being better....  I want to be a better Christian, daughter, sister, wife and parent!  I look forward to where I will go with this and to be able to look back at how I have changed because of it.  I pray that some of the things I imagine will come to be and that as I run this race I will strengthen my faith and family bonds.

Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us.   -Hebrews 12:1

I look forward to the FINISH.
