Party like a rockstar!

Welcome to my party!!

I am really excited to be a part of The Ultimate Blog Party 2010! What a great way to meet new people and find a million some new blogs to follow.

So grab a snack (mine is Tostitos Scoops and chunky salsa) and something to drink (blueberry pomegranate juice here although it will be coffee soon!) and settle for a peek into my everyday ramblings, bad grammar, and obsession with exclamation points!!!!

My name is Jacki.

I am, first and foremost a lover of Jesus. Every day that He blesses me with I am continually AMAZED at how BIG His love is for little ole me!

I started this blog last month as a way to preserve the memories of life and in hopes that I can be an inspiration to someone else. I love what I learn about myself through my writing and also through reading other people’s stories and seeing how they relate to my life. Since I began blogging, I have been motivated to be a better person and mother each and everyday. Even on the days I fail.

I am a Mommy to four beautiful children!

My oldest, a boy, is eight. He was born three days after my seventeenth birthday at a time in my life when I was so lost and looking for love in all the wrong places. When I had him I found all the love I needed and he changed my life.  He is all boy and such a real sweetheart. He lives in SC with his Dad and I miss him a whole bunch.

My second child, a girl (my mini-me), is six. When she was born it was the happiest time in my life up to that point. Her father and I were married and about to buy a home. I couldn’t wait to rock her in my glider in the living room and nurse her to her little heart’s content. Life was GOOD then. LOL. My sweet baby girl is a little princess come to life! She also lives in SC with her Dad and I miss her bunches too!

My third child, also a girl, is four. When the Lord blessed me with this little girl, I didn’t know it then, but she would become my Hope. A spiritual little girl who blesses everyone in her life.  She is a praiser and a worshiper and it is contagious. She is something else for sure and keeps me laughing and on my toes on a daily basis! She has a really good memory and never lets me forget a thing.

My fourth child, a boy, is 5 months old. He is my joy boy. With the birth of this precious baby boy a spirit of Motherhood and nurturing was renewed in me. He is such a blessing. He is a sweet boy who loves his Mommy and his big sister (the most).
