thoughts on a “feminist” article…part 1

The following is the beginning of my thoughts on an article that my friend had a link to on her facebook. It is a first attempt at articulating or starting to articulate the response that wells up within me as I read and hear how people in our fair land are looking at things. My [...]

check check check….is this thing on?

Wow! how long has it been????

wow! How time flies…

Wow!  I can’t believe it’s almost been a year since I last blogged.  How sad is that???? I guess that makes me a pretty sad blogger.   Well, here’s a new post for my beloved blog space….. I am now the mother of two and there are several emotions that I feel about that…. First [...]

Weeeeeeeee!

This is a word that a dear friend says and I have adopted it for myself.  In general it is used to express delight and joy and sometimes for me, it can even be used to express other emotions as well.   Today has been a pretty good day but also a day of frustrations and [...]

the crazy twists and turns of life….

Today I find myself thinking about how suddenly life can go from a very high and exciting point to a very low and traumatic point.  I guess this means life is fragile and further that we are desparately in need of a loving God to rescue us from the mirey pit.  It’s interesting to think [...]

Sista’s Thoughts

Wow! It’s been a really long time since I’ve written. Lots of things have happened. I found out I’m expecting our second baby in December, and I’m discovering new things about the little one we already have. It’s so fun to watch her grow and develop. I’m growing personally in character and being a homemaker. [...]

Sweet moments…..and misty eyes

I’m so grateful for life’s little blessed moments and that I get to cherish them right now instead of being depressed and feeling so covered up that I can’t see straight. Tonight, our 16 month old daughter demonstrated the grasp of a concept that I had long hoped she would get. It was really a [...]

Scary….but good!

Yesterday, my Love and I spoke to a group of singles at church about the issue of Leadership/Submission… This is a scary but good discussion which I feel burdened to walk through with others.
