Welcome!!

Hi there!!  Welcome to my very first blog post ever!  You are about to embark on an amazing journey with me and I'm so happy that you're here :) 

I've been wanting to blog forever now after reading a few of my Facebook friends' blog.  To be honest with you, the only thing that has kept me from it was a good title.  You may think I'm crazy, but I have contemplated over the title of this blog for months now!  I wanted it to be something fun and clever, but meaningful at the same time.  I tried to think of my favorite songs, books, movies, bible verses.  And I had it:  My Cup Runneth Over

    
In thinking of a title for this blog, I did some major reflecting on my life and the many blessings God has given me and my family through the years.   I have a wonderful husband, amazing parents and in-laws, the best brother and sister anyone could ask for, and life long friends that have been there with me through it all.  Last, and certainly not least, I have the sweetest little boy, Max, who brings me more joy than anything in the world. 

Besides the people that I have been blessed with, God has provided so many other blessings - so many I can't even count.  I am overwhelmed with His love and mercy everyday because I certainly don't deserve it at times.  Through this blog you'll learn more about me and my family and will understand why I chose "My Cup Runneth Over" as the title :)

For now, I'll end this post with a picture of my beautiful family taken a few short months ago.  Thankfully, my sister in law, Lisa Dotson, is an amazing photographer and she captures so many special moments for us.  Again, thank you for stopping by and I hope to see you again soon!!!


Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.  Psalm 23:5
