Four years ago today, I posted my first blog. I had no idea what I would write, or quite frankly, who would care. It was a bit overwhelming until a blogging-guru buddy shared this piece of advice: Write as if you’re sitting across the table from a friend with a cup of coffee in hand. Now that, I could do.
While much has changed since pouring the first cup, my blog design has not — that is, until today!
I wanted something fresh, whimsical, and meaningful. Searching for the perfect title helped me tap into the very reason for this blog’s existence: to glorify Christ through my love of words, each birthed and measured by the one true Word, whether it be poetry or prose.
When the answer came, it hit hard and fast at our Word Weavers’ breakfast. Thankfully, a plate of grits with two slaps of butter were waiting to soften its blow. Within seconds of my blurting out Rhyme and Reason, Edie suggested I capitalize “SON” in the word “reason.” (Thank you!)
From there, Brian created the illustration and brought it to life, as you can see from above. (You’re amazing, Brian!)
While there are days I still struggle to hit “Publish”, there are few places I’d rather be than sitting here, across from you, with coffee in hand.
I love your new header and name!I'm so glad God brought us together to be friends.
I like that design. Now you just need to convert to WordPress. haha.
As am I, Edie. You're a blessing to me and to so many others. I look forward to our breakfast. 🙂
I really like the looks of your new header! An attention attractor! What a nice and helpful hubby you have:)

Thanks, Sheri. I'll check on the email issue. I appreciate the heads up!
