I was born and raised in a Christian family with two brothers (Ryan and Phillip) and two sisters (Bethany and Amy). I love having a big family and living in the country! On our five acre farm we've raised cows, goats, pigs, chickens, a donkey, dogs, and cats. Every year we plant a big garden and can or freeze as much as we can to last us throughout the year. We like doing things the old fashioned way: simple, meaningful, and heartfelt. We have found that we can take pride in our land and everything on it because we put so much work into it ourselves.
My parents also homeschool(ed) us all. Ryan, I and Bethany have graduated, so mama's class has gone from 5 students to only 2. We love homeschooing and couldn't imagine doing it any other way. . . it works for us!
I am currently working in the medical feild as a Medical Coder. I am thankful for my job, but when God gives me a husband and children I will gladly become a keeper at home like the Bible teaches, and may possibly continue coding from my own house if need be. When I'm not at work I enjoy playing the piano, singing with my siblings, reading, writing, cooking, baking, sewing (sometimes) and staying busy. I love music, all things vintage, pumpkin scented candles, quiet days at home, Saturdays, and spending time with my family.
This blog is a place where I can write about my ultimate love, Jesus Christ. I am learning more and more every day that life is nothing without Him, and no matter what or who comes into my life, I cannot enjoy it to the fullest unlest Christ is first.
This blog use to go by the name Miaden in Waiting not because I was sitting around just waiting for "Prince Charming" to come along, but rather I was waiting for the right man instead of dating any man who comes along. I'm still waiting for God's best, but with a change of focus came a change of title for my little spot on the web.
I'll also post about things I'm up to from time to time, so stick around and you might just find a good recipe or see some pictures of our new animals as they come and go. I hope you enjoy your time at my blog!
