Rosie's Writings: August 2008
http://journeywithrosie.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Thoughts on spiritual formation and our journey of faith. Thursday, August 28, 2008. I've always been on the sidelines politically. All of the negative sparring usually sickens me to the point I stop listening. But this year I was intrigued by the newcomber on the political horizon, Barack Obama. I wanted to learn more about him, so I picked up a copy of. The Audacity of Hope. In recent months, besides reading Obama's book, I've read Madeline Albright's book. The Mighty and the Almighty. I am a United Me...

Mothering on Faith: March 2012
http://motheringonfaith.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
One mom trying to understand poverty and awaken her kids' spiritual identities, whatever they may be. Wednesday, March 28, 2012. Development Clock vs Kid Clock: What's the right way to help an orphan? I’m cracking open a beer at the end of my first day back in Phnom Penh since October, mulling over some of the country news and a dated Economist. Article that’s left a bitter taste in my mouth. Rupert Wolfe Murray’s article. In case you don’t follow the State Department’s adoption website. Right I’m ...

Mothering on Faith: Life comes at you fast, reality-check in the bathroom
http://motheringonfaith.blogspot.com/2012/11/life-comes-at-you-fast-reality-check-in.html
One mom trying to understand poverty and awaken her kids' spiritual identities, whatever they may be. Monday, November 19, 2012. Life comes at you fast, reality-check in the bathroom. And—I miss you! And now there is something else. A period expected mid-trip, counted on, taken for granted! Midnight panics, and then early morning brooding. This wasn’t supposed to happen! There’s just no way!

Mothering on Faith: October 2012
http://motheringonfaith.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
One mom trying to understand poverty and awaken her kids' spiritual identities, whatever they may be. Saturday, October 6, 2012. Moved to Kiev, ahead of kids, the single professional. TJ got a job in Kiev. I competed for a great spot in Tbilisi, but lost it to a woman who vacated her seat in Kiev. Through the musical chairs of bureaucratic rotation, we have managed to land in the same city for the next few years. Great luck! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). About Mothering on Faith.

One mom trying to understand poverty and awaken her kids' spiritual identities, whatever they may be. Tuesday, October 25, 2011. Rise Up Washington Bureaucrat! In between such oases are stretches of gray paneling, closed doors, frosted class, and behind it, tight-lipped functionaries scrolling through email. In short, I’m back in Washington. How have I come full-circle? What kinds of skills do I actually have? Well, you get the picture. And I don’t want to become the Disgruntled Colleague, whos...I’...

One mom trying to understand poverty and awaken her kids' spiritual identities, whatever they may be. Tuesday, May 24, 2011. Mothering by the Seat of My Pants. Well, tonight there were more tears, and Ernie was silent behind a closed door. Yosh says it’s weird riding next to his brother on the van. But this time I grabbed the situation by the balls. Fuck you Mr. Walker! Fuck you for over-loading the homework, and making Ernest think Jesus is keeping track if he finishes it or not! Sunday, May 22, 2011.

Mothering on Faith: April 2012
http://motheringonfaith.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
One mom trying to understand poverty and awaken her kids' spiritual identities, whatever they may be. Friday, April 20, 2012. A talk with my children, and waiting. Concentrating on breathing and bird-chirping is the best way to clear my mind. But Tika also crosses herself when ambulances pass, quietly repeating the Angel of Mercy. When, after much pleading, TJ and I bought her a. Now Tika is re-reading. The Color of Home. 8217; (yes, that was Puck). The boy who said he didn't know anything has thought th...

Thoughts on spiritual formation and our journey of faith. Tuesday, May 13, 2008. Waiting for God Again. It seems that much of my life over recent years has been spent waiting to see what God will do next in my life. It has always worked out so well when I have waited.Great opportunities have come my way. Our most recent wait has involved my husband's retirement from the Air force. In June, he turns 60, which is the age that is determined for retirement from the Air force. He has been. So for now, I thank...

http://homeschooltoddler.blogspot.com/2009/10/writing-letters.html
Fun Homeschooling Toddler Activities. Sunday, October 18, 2009. She likes to take turns with me on the worksheets - I do a letter, then she does a letter, then me, then her, etc., etc. She is so proud of her work when she is done. She treats it like a special piece of art. I am, of course, super proud of her, too. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). These reasons are not particular to toddlers. I am more writing this to remind myself later. I am adding to it as I go. 160; 5.b...There are often ...
