It's a Blogging Party - and You're Invited!!

I am so excited to be a part of my first ever blogging party! I am somewhat new to the blogging scene and still deciding how my little blog will develop over time, but am thrilled to welcome any new readers!

Join in on the party by clicking on the button below and getting the "scoop" from 5 Minutes for Mom! You'll find my own attempts at following the blog party directions interspersed here throughout some quick and basic introductions to my blog and to me.

Now that you've landed on my blog, welcome! The goal of my blog is to share my reflections as I walk down the path of life with God's guidance, and hopefully find many blessings along the way. At times I do better at focusing on the blessings than others, but I am trying! :-)

What I Am Not: mother, wife, business-woman, girlfriend (know anyone? Ha!), runner, crafting queen, insensitive, high-maintenance, thin, wealthy, and more ...

What I Am: Christian, daughter, sister, aunt, granddaughter, friend, single, teacher, organizer, avid reader, hopeful writer, cat-lover ...

Last, a few business tidbits for the blogging party regarding their give-aways. (Yes, they're giving out prizes! Click the button above to find out more!) If I win any of the drawings, here are the prizes I would most enjoy, listed in no particular order:

• Life Journals, given by Mom's Toolbox
• 1 Year membership gift certificate to ListPlanIt.com
• $50 Target Gift Card, given by Agoosa
• Money Games: 85 Ways to Save Money & Attract Abundance (by Randy Petrick), given by It's a Woman's World

If these are unavailable, my back-up choices would be: 123, 120, 126, or 134.

Happy Blogging, everyone!
