About Me

Hi, and welcome to Many Little Blessings! My name is Angie, and I’m…

  • Mom to three kids (Noah – 12, Jack – 10, and Molly – 6)
  • Wife to Eric, my high school sweetheart (15 years)
  • A very excited Catholic convert (my whole family converted, and were received into the church together in April 2007)
  • Busy homeschooling my kids (I previously taught school and have degrees in elementary education and special education, though I don’t think these actual help for homeschooling)
  • A writer
  • A music lover
  • An artist and crafter, who always seems to have an eye toward learning a new craft (I have an Etsy shop called Just a Tiny Owl that features some of my creations)
  • A web designer
  • Usually tired

About Many Little Blessings

Many Little Blessings is my little place on the Internet to share my life, in the hopes of both recording our memories, and helping others who stop by for a visit (whether that be with a household tip, a recipe, to uplift their spirit, or just offer a laugh).

You might find me writing about:

  • Various ways I work at our household management
  • Things we’re doing around the house to live a little more green
  • Ways we’re trying to save money
  • Food topics — from recipes to books to cooking tips
  • Decorating ideas that don’t cost a fortune
  • Our homeschooling journey
  • What we’re doing to continue on our faith journey
  • Fun things I found around the Internet
  • Crafty and artsy stuff (I’m no Martha Stewart, but I have a genuine love for crafting)
  • Just about anything that pops into my head!
