A Warm Welcome

Welcome, dear readers!

For a long time now, I have greatly desired to have a blog of my own. I love writing, almost as much as I love reading, although my time spent in each pursuit is quite limited (with good reason).

I am the happy mother of two rambunctious little boys whom I affectionately refer to as Little Bear and Baby Bear. They are my treasures, and I tell them that often (smiles). They fill my days here at The Cottage with joy and sunshine. Of course, we have our difficult days too. But for me, motherhood is the highest calling a woman can have. It is a God-given, God-ordained vocation, and I seek to embrace it fully.

As Nancy Campbell says, "Motherhood is not temporary as other careers. It lasts forever. Each child God gives to you is an eternal soul that will live forever."

I hope to fill this little corner of the web with amusing little stories from our day, encouraging thoughts on mothering, marriage, and homemaking, as well as the occasional recipe or two (for you see, the kitchen is my happy place!).

Being a full-time Christian mother at home is most fulfilling! To me, there is nothing I'd rather do in this life.

I look forward to sharing my thoughts with you, my readers. Please make yourself at home.

In Christ,

Ms. Paulina Marie
