Why did you start writing your Web site?
I started this site to share pictures of my children with friends and family, and the love of Jesus with people who are surfing the web.

Do you communicate with readers of your site?
Yes

Do your friends and family know you keep this site/read it? If so have you had any really negative experiences as a result? If not why?
My family enjoys visiting my site and seeing the updated pictures and stories.

How has your Web site benefited you? Your friends? Or total strangers?
My website has given me a chance to show people what Jesus means to me, and to my family. It has also helped me to explain to people why my husband and I have made the choices that we have made.

What are your favorite things on your site?
I love all of my Christian links, and the pictures of the kids! They are growing up so fast!!

When looking at other people's Web sites what do you look for as a viewer?
A friendly, child-safe website with interesting graphics.

What is "one word" that would describe your site?
Love

Because of your site do you consider yourself a Web celebrity, an exhibitionist, a public figure, a writer, an innovator, or something different?
I would consider myself a Witness.

How do you tackle the mechanics of Web design and how do you deal with your frustrations when you can't do what you envision.
I read and learn everything that I can. When all else fails, I ask friends for help :o)

Why do you think people are interested in you and what you have to say?
I think people are interested in what I have to say because I believe that everyone has an inherent need to search for that "something" that might be missing in their lives. My family has found the answer in our trust in Jesus Christ, this in return, shines through to people who are looking for answers themselves.

What compels you to design beautiful pages and to write from the heart (beyond just the usual question of "why write a Web site")?
The commission by Jesus to take His word to others. Since website building is something that interests me, it is a natural extention to make my website beautiful, so that it reflects the face of our risen Savior.
