Living Wide Awake: March 2011
http://livewideawake.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
March 13, 2011. Well, I am back from Haiti. I was right. A week wasn't enough. What I saw there, what I felt, only confirmed the call I have felt on my life for loving this population- The widows and orphans that are so dear to God and hold my heart. I am pushing on doors to commit a year to serving in this way. So far they are opening. Any prayers towards this would be gratefully received. This is my heart song through this process: Surrender.

Roude Review: May 2012
http://roudereview.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Life is crazy good. Tuesday, May 22, 2012. I have to toss a few little anecdotes on here from our kiddos from the past few weeks (before I forget! Lily Brian took the kids to McDonalds and got them happy meals, ordering both of them chocolate milk (their usual favorite). After he exited the drive-thru, Lily said, "I wanted white milk", to which Brian responded, "what, you always like chocolate milk! She said, "I know, I'm not going to marry him now, just when I grow up! Who who, who, who? The 4 of us.

Life is crazy good. Thursday, April 29, 2010. Lily is 4, Max is 1 so quickly! I'm still working on finding the time to do anything fun and creative with the blog, but for now it will just be an update on the family. I have a few friends who are really into blogging, and I'll be asking their advice and for help with making mine more visually appealing.Brian is the only follower at this point anyway, and he gets to see the kiddos daily!

Life is crazy good. Sunday, October 28, 2012. Blogger Block (a cousin of writer's block). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The 4 of us. Things That Annoy Baristas (at least THIS one! Any soy beverage ordered extra hot and without foam. That is damn near impossible! If you even look at soy it begins to get frothy. Again, you can order whatever you'd like, just know that this is annoying and there isn't a barista alive that would LOVE to make this beverage. Because of idiots like you. LJs 7th Birthday Party.

Life is crazy good. Tuesday, March 20, 2012. Our friend Kai's 6th birthday! What a productive AND fun day it was today.

Life is crazy good. Saturday, March 17, 2012. It's St. Patrick's Day, and I feel so lucky. Here's why:. L - Love is something that I'm surrounded by constantly, whether I'm with my family, friends or at work. I am incredibly fortunate to have so many people in my life that love and respect me for who I am, and they don't ask me to try to be anyone or anything else. Not everyone can say that. K - Kindness is something that was instilled upon me at an early age by both of my parents, as they led by example...

October 3, 2010. We see from where we stand" -Haitian Proverb. In December of 2009 I started serving at the homeless shelter in Concord. It is a cold weather shelter for our community members who live in tents through the "warmer" months. I had gotten to know some of this population through a street church ministry- and I wanted to know their reality better- to be Awake to their "normal.". Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Living Wide Awake: Poverty... More than a word.
http://livewideawake.blogspot.com/2011/11/poverty-more-than-word.html
November 22, 2011. Poverty. More than a word. So far, it has challenged me about my faith. It shares how Jesus came to the world to save us from our sins, and reconcile us to God- Yes. But there's more- He came because he needed to reconcile a fallen world. He came because there were the poor, brokenhearted, widows, orphans, sick, etc. who needed healing. I, however, see it differently, I see the hurting around me and ask- How can there NOT be a God? When you entered the room, to the left was a twin matt...
