Anniversary Post
Hooray!
Today marks the third anniversary of the birth of my blog. (I guess my blog looks like a middle-aged man. ^ Haha!)
I sure have come a long way since starting this web log. When I began, I was in my last year of college at CWU. Now, I am in my third year of teaching and my first year of marriage!
I sure hope that those of you reading this page have found encouragement and challenge in my writing.
Upcoming posts include the 5-part series to answer the top questions people have had about faith in God, (see inspiration for that post here) as well as some little inspirations that have been bouncing around in my brain for some time.
I’m always open to suggestions; if you have a neat idea or a tough question, I’d love to start a discussion! Feel free to post it in the comments.
Thank you for your readership.
❤ ~Kay
