Welcome to Sacred Simplicity. My name is Karen. I am a 40-year old, widowed mother of four. I decided to start a blog to document my struggles, successes, and craziness, as I navigate through the unpredictable waters of grief, parenting, and life. This blog offers me a way to express the feelings and frustrations as well as the joys and celebrations I will encounter on my journey of life. My hope is to bring inspiration, faith, and maybe a little humor into your lives, as I try to figure out the new normal of mine.
