Hey y'all!

Hey y'all,
I'm Ven. Im here to re-introduce myself and my blog. I know these blog things are supposed to be focused, right? You are supposed to pick a topic or area of concentration? and run with it. I'm not like that, I can't do that.
What I can do is share my mission statement, and a piece of my heart on here.
I can share that I am some one who is learning to count the costs.
One who dreams big and struggles to follow through on occasion.
Someone who is still learning what she means to God, the value that he's placed on her,
trying to trust that and NOT trying to reconcile that with broken sinner she is.

So on the blog I will feature what we wear, and I don't promise to have style to inspire you.
 Right now I just can't make myself put my little boy in leggings and moccs, I'm just not that cool… (while I think it looks adorable on others' kids) In this house we rock a lot of Converse, comic book heroes, Old Navy, and TMNT jammies.

I will feature what we eat, and I don't promise to be the crunchiest mom you've ever heard of.

I will feature where we shop and what we love. And while I shop local, and small ALOT. I love me some Costco, because, well, have you been there?

I will try to share my story, and it may not be one that moves you to tears.
But it is our stories that unite us, they're what makes us community, and it is acknowledging the One who wrote our stories that helps further the kingdom.

So, I can't promise, to be inspiring, moving, or crunch-tastic?
What do I have to offer?
Hopefully you will see a mom who you could approach on the playground, one who you could be friends with, share toddler war stories with, one who could encourage you and whom you could encourage. I offer you me, the God who made me and the brokenness I am without him.
