Introductions

Hi, my name is Kylie. This is my first blog, and although I've had some experience with a diary in the third grade, I have never published my thoughts on the Internet for all to read. I promise not to tell you about what was for hot lunch (that is so elementary school), so please, be nice.

A little about me: I am 25 and a nurse on a neuro floor in Madison, WI. I have amazing family and friends and I love frozen yogurt. I am a Green Bay Packer fan. I adore puppies and children, mainly because I'm a woman and we can't help it. I like to think that I am funny, and generally at least one person laughs at my jokes (me). I know I'm a caring person and I've been told I'm a pretty good friend.

Now that you have a picture of my life, I have an announcement to make.  None of these details matter because I am trying to live a life that reads more like this:

Hi, my name is Kylie, I love Jesus, and I am loved by Jesus.

I want to share His story through my journey, to my family and friends.  I truly believe that my life is a small portion of the big picture that God has for all of us.  So now that you know the most important part of my life, I have some more news...

God showed me His love in a HUGE way last week Tuesday when Mercy Ships sent me an email that officially accepted me to serve as a nurse on their ship! This is terribly exciting news and I can't wait to learn more about myself, the world, nursing, and the Lord through this experience.  I hope this blog will provide an opportunity to share what I am learning on this new adventure!
