Ciao!
Some various tidbits about me…

My name is April Starr, and I want to learn and laugh everyday! Foremost I’m a Christian, then wife & mama. Farther down the list: artist, blogger, lover of spicy food, amateur explorer and worth very little in the early mornings.

I hope I never lose my sense of wonder and that someday I’ll be a morning person.
(I’m guessing the first is a lot more likely than the second.)

I’m 27, married to my love, Tim, and so far we have one daughter who is 4. If you ask my daughter to impersonate me, she makes lots of goofy sounds and faces, so that tells you something.

On rainy days I like to make a cup of tea, get out art supplies and create illustrations. I sell my art in my shop, FlourishCafe. My daughter loves to draw too, and I just love it when we make art together.

My favorite fruit is the mango, I am terrified of tornadoes, I love Jane Austen’s “Sense and Sensibility” (I sometimes am reminded of my husband and myself in Marianne and Col. Brandon), and I love to cook, but am pretty much no good at baking. I think “huzzah” should be shouted more often and my favorite kind of laughter is the kind that makes your sides hurt.

My goal in life: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.” Luke 10:27
