We all have experienced those moments or events in life that have been life-changing. Those moments that once you experience them, you cannot go back to being the same person you were before. Some you see coming, like when you get married or you have kids.

For me, I could not imagine my life without my husband and our three daughters. Yet even I could not have imagined how much I would change, grow, and be stretched after becoming a wife and mother.

Without good direction, people lose their way; the more wise counsel you follow, the better your chances.
