You like to write?

It's only taken me 3 years to start a blog. The fact that I even have a desire to blog will probably surprise any of you who take the time to read. Those of you who know me know that I love to cook (Parisses Palate) and love photography (Parisse Portraits) but my trio of things I love would also be writing (Welcome Parisse Ponders). Out of any class I ever took in college, my least and most favorite might shock you. My least favorite was photography (Dark room is hard kids... well- it was hard for me!) and most favorite was creative writing.

Ever since I can remember I would write books. I love to write- I feel like I can best decribe the inner workings of my mind this way (Ask my poor husband- if we have a really bad fight I will most likely write him my thoughts instead of being an inarticulate mess of words and tears!) But being a mom to 3 youngs kids, homeschooling and running a small business leaves little time for these things. I hope to make this more of a habit and if you come back to read more I hope you leave encouraged and don't judge me and my honesty of life too much.

A little about me. I'm 33, I have a beautiful family, and I love the outdoors. I thrive on good coffee, deep conversation, and sunshine. I'm a hopeless romantic but also have a bit of fire in me when it comes to loyalty with those I care about. I'm impulsive, old fashioned, and have high expectations for things being done right and the right thing being done regardless of the world's opinion. Lastly, I love Jesus. I know a lot of people say that so saying it doesn't mean much anymore. But I do love Him and desire to be like Him- and I am so far from it that it hurts. But I strive to wake up every day and try harder to be like Him, and love like Him.
