Why is it so difficult to describe one's self?
As seen in my blog title, my name is Sarah, which means "princess" in Hebrew. *^ - ^* (TBH, I'm 99.9% sure I'm a Disney princess & that I married my Beast---so my name is rather fitting, I think. *wink wink*)
Why the Plain & Average name, you may ask? Welllll. . . I am a quiet sort of person, until you get to know me, then WATCH OUT---I can be rather goofy, clumsy, & awkward. I stand 5'5" barefoot, so I'm not really tall, but not really short either---hence, the average. If asked to describe myself, I would blank out & stammer something unintelligible & quite possibly redden considerably in the facial area. But eventually I would manage something along the lines of: I'm a twenty-something lover of stories & consider myself rather plain, although I enjoy bright colors, laughter, sunshine, glitter, & sprinkles.
I am somewhat a total book dragon, movie freak, an aspiring author, poet (with three published poems!), and crafter of things. I enjoy photography, FOOD, all the fandoms! and so much more. Give me a beach, sunscreen, & a book---or mountains, my favorite chocolate-mint tea, & a book, and I'M GOOD TO GO.
I strive to be a Hufflepuff-loyal friend, a genuine encourager, and a shining Light for my God & King. My prayer every day is to be a light & a blessing to anyone & everyone I meet, that I might show my Christ to those around me through my love, His heart, & actions.

On October 8th, 2016, I married my best friend & my true love, Evan, and we celebrated the best day EVER with our family & friends. He tells me I'm beautiful, especially on the days I DON'T feel like it. I see & hear my heavenly King in his words, his actions, & his eyes. He's my Mr Darcy---without a doubt!---and I, his Lizzie.
About two years later, Evan & I welcomed Gabriel James into the world on August 27th, 2018. And exactly two & a half years after that, Heidi Elizabeth arrived! My God is so good!
This parenting thing is certainly a challenge at times, but both Gabe & Heidi are heart-melters & such blessings to my hubby & I. <3 I've got the best job in the world.

And that's me.
An average girl, sharing a bit of her mama-life & bookish things. I have a dream to someday publish a book or three (if ever they are finished. . .), but it's certainly all in God's timing. Perhaps someday. . . :]
Such a pleasure to meet you, dear heart! Now, tell me about you!
