I love it when God uses simple things to get our attention. A friend from Bible study gave all of us a “dancing poinsettia” for Christmas. It’s solar powered and my kids went crazy for it, taking turns putting it in different windows each day and watching it move back and forth, dancing in the […]
Poop Shoes
I sent a picture of these shoes to a friend while shopping a few days ago and here’s a peak into that text: Me: “Look at these Keens – don’t they look like someone stepped in dog poop? That designer should be fired.” Friend: “Haha! Were you tempted to try them on?” Me: “Sadly, I […]
Merry Christmas
So tonight, on Christmas Eve, Tamson will learn she has her very own blog. I love her completely and totally and hope that in 2014 and beyond we can find time in our schedule to let Tamson write. She is a beautiful writer with much to give. Keith
Posts that led to a blog: Book Notes (Torn) – Beautiful Reminder
Now that all the kids are in school a few hours a week, I have the luxury of reading again! Woohoo! Just finished “Present Perfect” by Gregory Boyd (simple but challenging) and also “The Reason I Jump” by Naoki Higashida (absolutely wonderful – written by a 13 year old boy with autism) and I’m in […]
Posts that led to a blog: Time to Wrestle
Okay, a slight deviation from cute kid pictures and stories about bodily functions . . . I was feeling like a slug, so I decided to combine my quiet time and prayer time together with a run this morning (kids are in preschool now, so this little window of time still feels like a miracle!). […]
Posts that led to a blog: Gotcha Day
Celebrating Carlie’s “gotcha day” today! Seven years ago today we were in China holding our little girl for the first time. It’s one of those unexplainable mysteries of God, but I love the miracle of our family. And even though I can’t explain why or how God orchestrated all the details, I can say with […]
Posts that led to a blog: Moments Like These
Just got back from a run/walk with the kids and dog (another picture perfect day – so beautiful!), and it seems like the last song I hear is always exactly what I need to get me through the day. I was listening to Selah, “Moments Like These” and when we got back home, I was […]
Post that led to a blog: Embracing the Mom that I Am
Read this quote this morning and it made me laugh: “Some moms are equipped by the hand of God to be “that mom.” They have been formed with the three-C gene – Cooking, Crafting, and Cleaning come easily and naturally to them. Others of us have been delightfully chosen to provide the comic relief necessary […]
Posts that led to a blog: Turning 40
You know those girls on the beach that you notice for all the wrong reasons? The ones who should really rethink their bikini or become more intimate friends with their razor? Well, I used to think they were out of touch with reality, but the older I get, the more I’m starting to admire them! […]
