Today was the day!

I've been thinking and musing and wondering and plotting, but today was the day. Which day? The day I started my first blog, of course! So, now that I have it, what should I write about?

I have writer's block.

No, not really. I can't wait to get started. My friends and family would tell you that I'm fairly opinionated about many things, and others would just roll their eyes and groan. They know I can't resist opining on just about everything that crosses my path. Oh, well. Nobody's perfect.

I hope you'll join me on the trip of my lifetime -- through the joys and pains of homeschooling, raising kids, seeking balance in the roles of wife, mother, stepmom, businessmom (or mompreneur), and all of the craziness in between. Alternatively witty, corny, rant-y, whiney, I'll try to the best of my ability entertain and inform while changing diapers, teaching fractions, running my house, and seeking better relationships with others, and with God. It sounds like a dartboard of a target, but that's how I roll. So, fasten your seatbelts, we're off to explore the rigors of being a wife and mom in the 21st century.

I'm in awe-inspiring company. The blogs I've read by families who are so accomplished and inspiring will always be around me, and I'm but a little spark of a candle when it somes to their shining beacons. I hope that I'll make friends along the way, and we'll share a virtual cup of coffee from time to time.
