Somebody Welcome Me To Blogville!!!

Well.......Here I am.....a new soul venturing into Blogville.....I've read blogs a zillion times, wishing I had sense enough to figure out how to get on board......I did even better, I birthed a daughter who has sense enough to get me on board!!!! (Thanks baby girl!!)

Now....How do I start?.....what's something to say???

My nickname is Sunshine.....and I love being sunshine for people.....encouragement is my spiritual gift....if YOU need a hug....I've got one! God has been my constant companion since I was just a little girl....used to walk around my Grandma's huge yard way down in Carolina and talk to Him....way before I knew that was called "prayer"........talking to God is easy for me, I love Him so.....and my life has been a journey in discovering just how much He loves me too. For a long time, I mistakenly thought I had to earn His love....what freedom comes in learning His love is FREE.....for any and all who call upon Him by faith.

God, Marriage, Family....they are everything to me....Blessed with a man who adores me (and has since I was 16).....blessed by being called "Mama" by two of the most beautiful, Godly young women I know.....blessed by being loved as "Nannie" by 6 energetic, gorgeous, creatively funny, healthy, precious grandchildren......our offering to a needy world for a new generation for Jesus!!!!.......My heart is full tonight........I celebrate my first step into blogville.....this new journey starts right here at Sunshine's Corner.......drop in and visit me when you need a hug!!!
