In the beginning there was light...

It seems fitting that my first post be a little summary of how this blog came to exist! The story starts with Karla, who I met a few years ago at a homeschooling co-op. Since that time, the woman has not ceased to surprise me! She struck me as the shy type, content to quietly sit in a corner reading or knitting while others were blabbing. Yet, as I have slowly gotten to know her, I have found that she is an extremely talented person with a colorful palette of interests, fervent in her faith, and she possesses an abundance of knowledge which she is eager to share. AND, contrary to my first perceptions, she is in fact, a VERY social person (on the net)! She it was who introduced me to the extraordinary world of blogs and suggested I might like to make my own. Then she pestered me about it when nothing was happening. Hee-hee! Good thing too! Otherwise, you might not be reading this. Thank you Karla! I’m looking forward to exploring my new addiction…er, I mean hobby.

Yay!!! Here you are! Am I your first commenter? Love the look of your template... so perfect for your theme. And what an interesting profile on me... who'd've thought you thought I was shy?! Actually, I do get that a lot... for first impressions only. As you know by now, I'm really not shy.... reserved maybe. And I definitely do better in one-on-one conversations rather than large groups. Thus the "off in my own little corner" thing at co-op. Okay... enough about me, for pity's sake! I am so excited you are joining the bloggy world... and yes, I do still have a third opening on my Pay It Forward Giveaway. I was beginning to give up on getting a third person. So you can be "it"!
