I deleted the first blog page and am trying things over again.
Okay well I've done it now and joined the world of blogging. Here's a little back history about us. Jamie and I met at the end of May in 2003. We did in fact meet online, playing a game--no not in a dating site. We met in person October of '03 and changed the title of courtship to dating. A ring I wore as of June '04. (oh no, I'm now rhyming, must stop that!) And we were married October 2, '04. Only two weeks shy of a year's worth of dating before marriage. I've been so blessed to find love, my soulmate, my life's companion. While dating Jamie moved half way across the country to be near me while I was still in school after he graduated from GA Tech in Atlanta GA. After we were married he got a job offer down south, and we moved about 14 hours away from everything I've ever known only 2 months after marriage. With only Jamie and Jesus beside me in a new world we've now settled in Georgia. I'm so grateful for our church family and the relationships we have formed there with new friends and love-ones. I like Georgia. I miss the snow a lot, which of course Jamie thinks I'm crazy for missing, but I do. However I love the spring time and how fast it comes... the flowers are starting to bloom already here and it's not even April yet. The redbuds are a gorgeous purple already. There is one in the backyard. It's still rainy and cold in Missouri. Anyhow! In June of '06 the Lord blessed us with our son. Matthew Christopher Hobbs is everything I ever wanted. He's a momma's boy for sure. Jamie's job allows us to have me stay at home with Matthew so that I don't miss a moment of him growing up--way too fast-- and I'm so thankful for that. This past September ('07) we bought our first house! It's crazy being homeowners now but I love having our own place.
Ecclesiastes 4:12 says 'Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken'
Jeremiah 29:11 says 'For I know the thoughts I think toward you', says the Lord, 'Thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a hope and a future'
The Lord sure has bound as together as a cord of three-- Jesus in our center and Jamie and I beside him. And HE has given us a future with Matthew. How blessed we truly are.
Thank you for visiting Kate's Place!
