The internet is one of my best friends, seriously. It (and God) has lead me to so many amazing, supportive people, both locally and all over the world. It happens all the time, I absolutely love the connections that this blog and other social networks has provided!

One site I visit often during pregnancy is Babycenter.com and early on in my pregnancy I met a sweet lady named Melissa. Sadly, she ended up miscarrying the baby we had due close together (and now has miscarried twice, send prayers her way!) but emails and months later we both determined we would be best friends if we lived closer. We have so much in common, from living in a maternity home during one of our pregnancies, to having miscarriages, to being Christian, and our love of writing.  I think I need a trip to Texas to meet her one day :-) She helped create a wonderful blog, now online magazine, for Christian women called Destiny In Bloom and asked me to join the team as an Author.

Today is my big day, my first article posted!  My official title is “Review Blogger” so you’ll see some cool products, books, and such highlighted. Today’s is a mix of testimony and review called Authentic Beauty, True Prince, and a Real Love Story.  It’s so exiting to use my writing for something else besides parenting stuff and challenge myself to brainstorm new ideas surrounding sharing my faith and products I love. I’m sure it will be a growing experience, not just in writing, but with God. The other authors and articles are always outstanding and so encouraging. It’s like little devotionals and a dose of inspiration every day. Go check out Destiny In Bloom!
