thoughts, musings & the odd butterfly along the journey

God has me on a journey - and as I travel it, this blog reflects the thoughts and musings (and the odd butterfly) from the heart of a senior woman, who is learning how to love with all my being, live fully and with no regrets, embrace life with my husband,kids and grandkids, and to let God lead in the dance of life that He has me learning!

About Me

Joy Thomas Klassen: I am in the beginning of my senior years lol and want to embrace it fully! Growing up I think I was much more free-er to just live life with gusto and would really like to regain that excitement and interest, and lose some of the inhibitions that keep me from living all out! I love the Lord Jesus Christ. It is only IN HIS STRENGTH that I can do anything! I love my husband! He is my love, my life, my best friend and the one who "gets" me and also makes me laugh! I love my 4 Kids. They make me so proud to be a mom! (Two I birthed and the other two married in!) I am a very proud Granny to 4 grandsons (three here with us, and one in heaven) and 1 granddaughter!! They are the love of my life. Heaing God speak to me, calling me to a ministry specific to women - has been the adventure of our lives. For more info go to www.womenrefreshed.com I want to live all - out! To "Go Big or Go Home!"
