About Me
This is your first child, you have all the time in the world, the Doctor said. “Take some walks around the block, and call me when your water breaks.” Laurel never did things according to schedule from the time she was born, arriving sooner than the Doctor thought! The Lord had big plans for her, and she is always ready for the next step in life.
Laurel met her husband in Arizona. He was a military brat going to the University and she was just a “regular brat,” so they connected right away; they married in their senior year of college.
Life hit her hard; new baby, her husband’s new job, small apartment, very little money to live on. There was no direct family support; while going through days of depression, loneliness, and homesickness. But the Lord was with her through it all. Laurel learned to lean on the Lord in a mighty way. They currently live in Small Town, Florida and recently celebrated 13 years of marriage. Laurel graduated from college with a communication degree; she was also a childcare provider in her home for several years, a pre-school teacher, middle school PTA treasurer, and currently she is an Office Assistant working only when her kids are in school.
Laurel has a house full of boys; three to be exact, however, if you add her husband, the cat and the dog, testosterone runs rapid. Being greatly outnumbered; she loves female conversation anywhere she can get it! Laurel will does officially have a teenager this year, so life is bringing more adventures and challenges.
With a heart for women, she finds it a privilege to remind women today that God is deeply in love with them. No matter what you have done, no matter where you have been God loves you right where you are with His agape love.
The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing.”~ Zephaniah 3:17

Your site is beautiful. You certainly have found your voice!
I am wondering if we are in the same town…I too live in a historical, small (not so small anymore) Florida town…
If you are interested to find out e-mail & I will tell you where I am at…I think that would be so cool!
God bless,
Maria
P.S. I just read a post of yours that echoes what I woke up with on my heart…I love how God does that - speaks the same in different ways to many people!
Awesome photograph, my friend
