Who I Am
Hello friends! I am Ruth Grunstra, and this is my parenting blog! I am very excited you've decided to check it out. My husband, Bernie, and I married in 1980 and he is a pediatrician and internist at Internal Medicine Pediatric Associates in Bristol, TN. We have successfully homeschooled our 8 children, and thoroughly enjoy our 5 grandsons and 3 granddaughters. The purpose of this blog is to help all parents truly enjoy their children, especially if you're busy, stressed and weary, because the time we have with our kiddos is so unbelievably short. Let's learn from and encourage each other to make the most of our time. We are in this together!
I have friends of all ages, in fact my children are some of my best friends. I wear many hats...which are swapped out multiple times every day, sometimes every hour. I am someone who loves God, enjoys learning, and prays daily. I love being creative but struggle with time management. Last summer several of my husband's new moms asked me to start a parenting class. This blog-style website is the first step in fulfilling their request. If you live in the Bristol Tennessee/Virginia area ask about the classes we are offering. I truly welcome feedback. So enough about me!! Tell me who you are and what you are learning. Let's get some discussions going that will help us all grow and learn. Our children deserve the best we can give them!! |
