About me

I am just a quiet person in a loud world.

A wife to one amazing man. I love him with all my heart, and after 36 years, he still calls me his girlfriend. We are madly in love with each other, and he is my life. I don’t like the thought of living without him….ever.

I am a mom to two unique and wonderful kids. A handsome young man, and a beautiful young lady. I love them more than they will probably ever know. I am very proud of them, and my one desire is that they will still like me when I am old.

I have three wonderful grand kids, and more times than not, they melt my heart. They are a joy and delight to my world. There really are no good words that describe what it feels like to hold them in my arms, or when they put their hand in mine.

I am the youngest child in a family of four, but now there are only two. Just my brother and I. I had two older sisters, but they left this world much too soon for us. I was my Daddy’s little girl, and probably still would be, if he were here, but he passed away a lifetime a go. My mom calls me her “blessing”. I try not to disappoint.

I’m a loyal friend, a good listener, and fascinated by the world of others. I love music, books, coffee, and going on road trips with my best friend.

I am comfortable with who I am.

A quiet person in a loud world.

      Thank you! I’m still quite new to this “blogging world” so I’m not quite sure what a blogging award means, or what it would require of me! Can you give me some insight on this?
      I’m quite honored to think that you would do this for me, and I am humbled by your comments, and thankful that you enjoy my blog.
      At times I feel as though I don’t have much to offer, so I try not to worry about impressing others, and just do what I like to enjoy doing! I’m glad to hear that you enjoy it too!
      Thank you for stopping by, and thank you for the compliment!

    • Becky says:

      Thank you for the nominations. I’m glad you enjoy my sight, thank you for visiting from time to time. I consider it an honor!

    P.S. Just noticed your Holy Experience link. I follow that log, too. Excellent!

    • Becky says:

      Yes, Ann Voskamp is quite a lady! She has truely been an inspiration to me. If you haven’t read the book yet, I would encourage you to do so. It’s not an easy read, makes you stop and think a lot, but she shares some very thought provoking concepts. Life changing, really! πŸ™‚
      Thanks again for stopping by! Have a wonderful week-end.

  4. Hi Becky, like you I am a wife to an amazing man and such a blessing indeed … you have two and i have three although no grand kids yet πŸ˜‰

    thank you for visiting and choosing my post to be a part of yours … glad to meet you and will definitely be back here.

    have a blessed day,
    April

    • Becky says:

      It’s always good to hear another woman say that she thinks her husband is amazing! It makes me so happy, because it’s one of the best gifts in life! And just you wait…those grandkids are going to blow your mind! I always heard how great it was to have grandkids, but hearing about it, and having them, are two completely different things! There is nothing quite like it in this world!
      I hope the rest of your week is full of good things! Thanks for stopping by, looking forward to more visits πŸ™‚

    Hi there. Thanks for stopping by and ‘liking’ my post on Audrey Dawn. I loved reading your ‘about me’ – you have been greatly blessed! More so, you seem aware of it and have a lovely way of expressing yourself.

      Thank you very much! Focusing on the good things in life has been my main priority the last few years – it certainly has helped me through some challenging days. I am very blessed…and I hope I never forget it! πŸ™‚

    I’ve been off for a while and see you have been too! I hope you are on some whirlwind vacation with that wonderful man of yours and all is well!

  24. Becky says:

    Monique – it was a whirlwind, that’s for sure, but not really what I would call a vacation! We went to CO to visit family – always interesting, and fun (sometimes, it’s even funny!). Thanks for checking on me – you’re so sweet.
