One of a kind

Being a pastor’s wife is a one of a kind experience. You can’t really explain it until you’ve experienced it. Have you ever tried to tell someone about a roller coaster you rode, but just didn’t feel like you got your point across. There are some things in life words don’t do justice.

When I married Bryan I wasn’t sure I would fit the “mold” of a pastor’s wife, and that was ok with me. Sometimes I say or do the wrong thing, and I am quite clumsy. My hair doesn’t always look great and rarely do my nails. You will find me on most Mondays in my grubbies doing laundry with no make up on. I recently went to a quick appointment in my grubbies and was introduced as the pastor’s wife to a lady who was new to our church.

I am glad I have found a network of other PW’s at Leading and Loving It. These ladies have done an amazing job connecting pastors wives together. I am making connections that are helping me through each step of my life.

I am thankful I can be the one of a kind girl God created me to be.

Bryan often shares details about our life and I never know what he will say on a Sunday morning. I have learned not to be suprised because nothing is off limits.

  1. I absolutely love a good cup of coffee.  A bad cup of coffee is just a waste of time.
  2. It takes A LOT of product to make my hair do what it do. My hair is uncontrollably wavy.
  3. I’ve worn contacts since I was 16 years old.
  4. My sister and I rode horses when we were young.
  5. I despise pantyhose and only keep one pair in case I attend an event where I would have to wear them.
  6. I love shoes. I have since I was 4. My mother says I would notice peoples shoes and comment on them.
  7. I can’t seem to keep my purse clean
  8. Summer is my favorite season
  9. I’m horrible at video games but love Battlestar Galactica
  10. My mother tried to scrub the birthmark off my arm when I was 4
