About Sonja

I am a wife, a mom, a homeschooler, a Christian, a scrapbooker, a cook, a baker, a reader, and a thinker. I am many other things, too, that are not so easily defined. Right now, God has been calling me to be faithful in what He has given me to do โ€“ to be the best wife, mom, homeschooler, friend, etc. that I can be. In essence, He has told me to โ€œbloom where Iโ€™m plantedโ€.

I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his spirit in your inner being. ~ Ephesians 3:16
