Meet the Family!

As a proper start to this blog, I suppose we should start with introductions.

My name is Laura, and I am an incredibly happy woman. :)

I am a Christian, and I serve an amazing God (well, the only God, actually, to say it correctly). I was saved by faith in Jesus Christ alone over 10 years ago now,  and I'm trying to live my life following in the footsteps of Jesus. I'm so thankful for my church, Christ Fellowship of Kansas City, in helping me to stay close to Christ as I journey through this life. And of course, I am striving to become a great student of God's Word, which more than anything gives me the strength to be who God calls me to be.

 I have an awesome husband named Josh whom I love very much. We celebrate our first anniversary next week! It has been an awesome year together, and I'm looking forward to the rest of our lives. And I'm also so thankful for him as he continues to be the leader of our home that God has created him to be.

I have a one-month-old daughter named Molly who has my complete adoration. I can't stop looking at her and feeling her little hands and feet and trying with all of my crazy silly faces to make her smile . . . just a little smile. She's rocking my world right now, that's for sure.

I am pretty much in love with food. I'll admit it. I could eat all day long. Not a good habit, I know. But I love to experiment in the kitchen. I also play piano and sing, love to read and write, enjoy nature and the great outdoors, love DIY projects and crafts, crochet and dabble in knitting, enjoy a good cup of tea with a spot of milk and honey, loved gardening (especially herbs and flowers), and love spending time with my family.

I love so many things about life! I think that's why I called this blog "My Joyous Heart" because my heart really is full of joy. God has blessed me with this joy, and I want to share it with whomever I can. If you are blessed at all by anything you read or see here, I hope you will thank God for it. It is through Him that I live and breathe and do anything that I do.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you are encouraged today! :)
