About me & why I blog!

Hi, I'm Kristin! Some call me Kris, family calls me Kristi and my man calls me Missy Krissy. Most importantly, I'm called daughter to the King of Kings. 

I'm passionate about my family, adoption & my relationship with God. I love sharing here about how I am being challenged in my faith & finding joy in the every day moments of life (even when times are rough). I'm also a huge fan of the beach, I love reading, Starbucks chai lattes are the bomb, I enjoy crafting, college football season & going on adventures with my man are pretty much my favorite.

I'm married to my amazing husband Adam. If you know him, you know that he is not only an incredibly handsome, sweet & passionate man, but he is also absolutely my better half! Adam & I are a bright, fun-loving & passionate couple. We are crazy in love with each other. Our desire is to live purposeful lives that reflect the heart of God.

For about 10 to 11 months, we have been on an adventure to bring our first child into our family through adoption. The adventure has been wild, wonderful & challenging, to say the least. I've always loved to express myself through writing. When we started our journey to adopt, I felt God calling me to share our story. This blog has not only been an awesome way for us to include our family & friends in our adventure to bring "Baby H" home, but also a way for God to move in the hearts of many. It's been humbling & encouraging to see Him move & inspire hope in the lives of others through our little story.  

I'm just a simple girl with big dreams in my heart & a wife in need of His grace. I'm walking with the Lord through the highs & lows of life, & surrendering my life to Him in a desire to be changed & made more in His image. I share my story not because I have it all together, but because like the rest of you, I am seeking to "figure it all out". Through mistakes & triumphs, I am learning what it means to be brave, to love deeper & to extend grace more freely. 

We all have a story to tell because God has created each of us for a unique purpose in Him. I hope that my story will encourage & inspire you to see beauty in the every day, seemingly ordinary moments of life, to take action in the causes you are passionate about & to seek God in a deeper, more intimate way.

Thanks for visiting our blog and being interested in our story. I hope you will be encouraged by what you read here!
