Toothpaste Tears
I just finished crying real, stinging tears. You know, the kind that feel like you have a hot tube of toothpaste being squeezed through your eyes? (Well, maybe not. I just came up with that right now on the spot, so bear with me.) You get what I’m saying, though. [...]
Baby on the way!
I love writing that! Sorry, not me this time….
My sister’s doctor moved her induction up from Labor Day (aw, would have been neat) to tomorrow! Yahoo! We are very excited and will be spending the weekend at my parents and seeing our new nephew/cousin Noah! Eric still has to play in [...]
Sick
It stinks that I’m home sick with a couple of sick kids, but it’s also nice. Meredith is so active that she never lets me snuggle with her much unless she’s tired. Today I held her on my chest for 2 hours in the rocker…. boy, it was sweet!
Are you having problems viewing [...]
My part-time job
I think I can officially call my web design projects “work” now. After almost a year I have slowly emerged from the books and started putting my learning into practice. “God, please bless my efforts to help others!” That was my original motivating prayer behind starting web design coupled with my passion [...]
For the record - a counted blessing
You know, it’s so easy to complain. I do it probably too much. I’m getting better, but it usually only takes me about two minutes in the morning to forget God and start complaining about the most trivial matter. Well, today I just want to say I’m empty-handed. I don’t have [...]
Not gone
Perhaps I should post something, so that people don’t think the almond mocha killed me! We had a busy weekend in our family, and there were some great times.
First - WORSHIP! Yesterday I leaned over to Dean, our worship pastor, and said, “I love our church!” He, Eric, and I [...]
Hatemail for Caffeine
Okay. I am presently reminded of every reason I hate caffeine and drink only water.
Jitters.
Shakes.
Terrible headache.
Writing in sentence fragments.
I HAVEN’T GONE TO SLEEP YET, AND IT’S FOUR O’CLOCK IN THE THURSDAY MORNING!
It was innocent enough or, better put, just brainless. I met a mommy friend around 7:30 pm to have [...]
Delight Design and Photography
If you need someone to shoot your next family celebration, help organize and decorate your home, or design a graphic, then Sara is your lady. She and her husband and daughter are currently touring the country (but it’s not your typical road trip), and you can visit her blog to read more about that [...]
Snake Revisited
Well, it’s been almost a year since the last snake sighting on our porch, so I guess we were due for another. Thankfully this time Lydia saw it while she was inside the door, and I grabbed my camera. Eric chased it away, and we had to again explain to Lydia why we [...]
"When Sinners Say I Do" - an introduction
I guess we’re out of the newlywed chapter by now. This past May we celebrated 5 years of marriage. To us it seems sometimes that we’ve been married longer mostly because we have brought three children into our family in these five short years, but we have only begun our journey. I [...]
