I wanted to explain how I chose the title of my blog actually weeks ago, but decided to wait until I was installed in my new blog home. So here I am! I got this idea to explain it from Jay at Kill the Goat http://saintvodkaofthemartini.blogspot.com/ when she asked the question of her readers, “How did you come up with your blog title?” It was then I decided to explain myself.
My blog, Stumbling thru life w/ Grace, has more then a few meanings for me.
Growing up, I had all of my 5’10” height by the 6th grade. I have always been the tallest in Elementary School,
and the clumsiest. My father early on nicknamed me “Little Miss Fart Stumble and Fall.” They put me in ballet while in grade school, in hopes that I would establish some grace. And over time it worked.
As a young adult, I made many many many mistakes. Unwittingly of course! I’m on my 3rd marraige, and I have 3 kids, and did more then my share of “partying” in the decade of my 20’s. (Don’t tell my kids.)
I’m a Christian, and believe in His Grace. His power to forgive me; cover my sins. Grace.
I look back in retrospect, and am amazed at my luck! Or His Grace?
I have stumbled into marraiges, and had kids for some wrong reasons. Basically stumbling my way thru life. Using my blog as a journal, I have put it all together, based on my childhood and then my adult years.
Learning to be gracious, and valuing this attribute in others, is somthing very close to my heart.
The name I use on my blog, 3rd times a charm, is representative of the happiness and contentedness I have in this 3rd marraige. And I have 3 beautiful, kind kids. 3 is just my magical number.
So for my first post, on my new site, I want to ask everyone to comment, by answering this question. (Thanks Jay) How did you choose the name of your blog? Why? I’m curious, so tell me! 
Close it Up
