Introduction....

Let me introduce myself.....

My name is Michele Blake and I have been called by God to create this blog and tell a story. It is not only my story but God's story as well and how they have, are and will be intertwined to become a greater story. For most that know me, be it old friends or even new friends, I want to start by saying Thank you for walking with me through some of the hardest days, months and years of my life. I know that I am loved beyond my dreams and more than I deserve. So from the bottom of my heart THANK YOU.

This blog is dedicated to my one and only Jesus Christ who died for me- a sinner. To my children whom I love with all of my heart. To my  many "soul sisters" who have loved me, held me, wiped my nose and eyes for me and have endlessly prayed for me. To my ever loving and faithful parents- Will and Janet Blake- who if they had not taken me in I would have died. To my new family- The Genco's who have welcomed me into their hearts and homes with open and loving outstretched arms. Finally to the Love of My Life- Vincent Robert Genco. You have brought colors and breath back into my life. You gave me the courage to cross over from the wilderness and step into this new life we are beginning with God and becoming best friends and one day husband and wife. I have never ever known or wanted anything more in my life. I claim this to be mine. Thank you dear precious and gracious Father. Let me be a blessing and light in this man's life! I love you Vinny with all that I am and all I will ever be.

Now you may be wondering the meaning to the title of my blog. As a Christian I have always loved the analogy of the God being the Potter and I being the Clay. Meaning He is creating and constantly changing and transforming me into something new. When I was born I was just a clump of clay. No imperfections and sin yet. Then as I grew the clay started to take shape. So please will you join me in this adventure of memories, heartaches, mistakes, joys, fears, tears and walk along side me on the road ahead. I am so excited and hopeful that this blog will not only be a success but be a valuable tool to many. Stay tuned.

In Christ,
Michele
