http://www.untilmylastbreath.com I'm Christy, wife to Steve and mother to an incredible son and a beautiful daughter. I spend my time making jewelry, homeschooling, blogging, reading and being with the people I love. I want my children to live life in peace and enjoy learning about whatever interests them. I will encourage them in the areas that they feel led to explore. I want my husband to experience the love I have for him and know that I will never stop being in awe of God's plan for our life together. I want all to know of the love I have for Christ and all that He accomplished on the cross. It is because of Him that I live...and live in freedom.
