So what do you do when your husband is out of town and you are not ready to crawl into bed alone so you want to make sure you are good and tired before you do? You start a blog of course!
If this blog does nothing else than tires my brain out tonight and helps me fall asleep then it will have been a success!...I know what you're thinking...'This girl is such a baby! Just go to bed!'...and to that I would respond...'I might be a baby, but you're a doody-head so there!'
Okay, now I am laughing to myself and starting to wonder if the fact that I found that hilarious is proof that my brain is already tired and ready for bed.

Things like that...like speaking before I think, or letting my emotions get the best of me, they make me wonder if I am qualified to be a mom of three, married to an amazing man of God (and therefore entrusted with his heart), and most importantly worthy of representing Jesus to the world...and I am reminded of the reason for my blog's title...
Grace-because I need it so desperately, because it has changed my life, and because with out it the next 2 would not even exist in my world...
Gratitude-for the previously mentioned 'grace' and for everything that flows out of that central gift of God through Jesus Christ...
Giggles-because life is full of laughable moments and it feels good to laugh...even if it's at myself!

So there it is: Grace, Gratitude, and Giggles. Maybe I will inspire you with my insights and creativity or maybe I will encourage you in knowing 'If God can love and use a mess like Lucy then there is hope for me afterall!' and there is hope...and hope is such a treasure...but 'Hope' doesn't start with a 'G' so it didn't make the title...aren't you glad you glad you read this?!
Love it Lucy! Can't wait to read what you have to write!
