Raising the Bar

Warning: This post is rant-y and wrought with generalizations. Oh well. In no way am I professing to have this all figured out. But, I have observed a few things. Men, I love you. Really I do. And I hate... Continue reading

My Little Edison

You have probably heard me say that Griffen is my quirkiest child. This is true, he is about as different as different can be. Griff is his own little man, always has been. His brain works overtime, and from the... Continue reading

She was born with a tiara, that’s what I say about my Emmy. She is maybe the girliest girl in the whole wide world. And I have no idea where she got it from. I was more like Grace when... Continue reading

A good cry, an ugly cry was sneaking up on me. There was a little lump in my throat, small tear here and there, and deep sighs galore. So I got my jammies on, got a glass of water and... Continue reading

Divorce sucks; I know. I think Elizabeth Gilbert put it best when she said “it’s like being in a really bad car accident every single day for about two years.” It nearly killed me multiple times. I have come through... Continue reading

(Word of warning: this is mushy and gushy and lovey dovey, and there is almost no point to it except to express my absolute, unending adoration for Him and His sweet kisses. Also, no pictures again, because this is not... Continue reading

Sometimes coming to someone I love who generally has all the right answers and telling them my Big Overwhelming Problem and hearing them say “I don’t know” is extremely helpful. I went to a friend the other night all tense... Continue reading

Getting Equipped

Freedom and Kairos

Part of me wants to spill every detail, page of notes and powerful experience from Kairos onto the World Wide Web. But there’s no way I could come close to doing it justice. It’s mostly indescribable. It’s absolutely incredible. It’s... Continue reading
