Technically that makes me a &#8220;Blogger,&#8221; but I think that word sounds like somebody throwing up in their purse, so I try not to use it.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, my love for writing began as a hobby when my husband and I moved to Guatemala. I realized the cool thing to do when you move overseas is to start a blog, so I did. Overtime, writing came to mean much more than keeping in touch; it was a way to process whatever was happening in our lives:\u00a0like our move overseas to a place of deep poverty. Like my begrudging first passage into motherhood. Like our move and transition back to the United States. Like the devastating loss of our second baby.<\/p>\n<p>And those are the things I like to write about: Marriage and Parenting, Grief and Poverty. Learning what it means to Love God and Love My Neighbor. I think you&#8217;ll find that my style of writing is not &#8220;how to&#8221; as much as it&#8217;s &#8220;me too&#8221;. It&#8217;s heaps of Jesus with hints of laughter. Sarcasm is my second language.<\/p>\n<p>As I try to honestly share what I&#8217;m going through and what God is teaching me, I hope you&#8217;ll be encouraged to hear from another working through life&#8217;s trenches. I hope you&#8217;ll enjoy yourself and leave feeling comforted, challenged, or just plain tickled.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kendra Broekhuis www.kendrabroekhuis.comContact Kendra:\u00a0 kendrabroekhuis@gmail.com Bio: I like to write words and share them on the internet.
