I’ve been wanting to say something as a mom and as a Christian for quite some time about the movement known as Full Quiver or Quiverfull. A midwife I know blogged about the notion of a full quiver and what it means to her over on MommyMidwife’s Blog last week. I have to say that I agree wholeh... Comment - Like

Well, I’ve lost as much as 8 lbs from my starting point last month, and then gained 10 per my scale in the matter of less than a week. I don’t look or feel like my weight has shifted that much. I have to think my scale is broken, because my 5yo son was playing with the dial to zero it (he turne... Comment - Like

Back in Fall 2007 I went on the South Beach Diet and lost about 20 lbs. Then the holidays came up and I slacked off. However, I pretty much kept the weight off as long as I didn’t pig out on carbs and avoided high fructose corn syrup – when I eat snacks with it or start drinking sodas sweetened... Comment - Like

I’ve posted very little this year, partly due to being active on Facebook posting personal thoughts and sharing tidbits with friends and family but also largely due to not wanting to talk very much about stuff like I used to. With all that the family has gone through for a year or so I’ve been t... Comment - Like

During the 1st service in church on Sunday April 18, the manifest presence of the Lord was like nothing I’ve experienced in a LOOOONG time. I was singing with the worship team and it was like the Shekinah glory settled on us. We were singing the song “Jesus is the Lord” (World Mandate or Travi... Comment - Like

So, I understand the House wants to “pass” the health care deform reform bill without actually voting on the whole bill, using a measure called the Slaughter Rule, or Deem and Pass, which sounds like Demon Pass. I don’t have time to go into all the details, but I will say I am so angry at th... Comment - Like

I stepped away from my computer for a few minutes this earlier this afternoon and didn’t lock my bedroom door. While I was downstairs, Angela, one of my 3-yr-old twins, got busy. I came back upstairs and ran her out of the master bathroom and sat back down at the computer. My computer, an iMac ... Comment - Like

2009 was a tough year. It was not an understatement for me to declare that I’m still here in my previous post. I’ve been very hesitant to talk about it or blog about it. I’m not going to go into a lot of details but here’s the gist of it:
Our income took a severe hit last April (David an... Comment - Like

Hey, I’ve been really busy and a lot of change has been happening in my household, so that’s why the postings have been so sparse for a while. Yes, my poor little blog has been sorely neglected, but not forgotten, so I’m taking a few moments to post something, mainly because I’m trying out ... Comment - Like

It’s not about spending time with family and friends or exchanging gifts – we can do that anytime and shouldn’t need an official holiday to give us an excuse. It’s about celebrating God’s gift to us: sending His only begotten Son into the world, born of a virgin.

David and I have been going to a particular church since May. I have never felt more at home or felt the sweet presence of the Holy Spirit like I have at this church. The preaching and teaching there is straight from the Bible, and it’s not milk, it’s all meat. We partnered with the church a ... Comment - Like

I realized this weekend, again, that my children are growing too fast. My oldest, Melissa, is 6, and yesterday my husband took the training wheels off her bike. I know age 6 is not prodigious for going 2-wheels only, but I still feel so proud of her. She took to balancing on her bike so quickly, ... Comment - Like

Yesterday I went to my class reunion cookout. I’m a proud member of the Hampton High School Class of 1989. It was great seeing folks there I hadn’t seen in at least 10 years (from our last reunion) and some I hadn’t seen for 20 years. Sadly I missed seeing some people I wanted to say hi to, ...

This quote is misattributed to Abraham Lincoln, but it’s actually by Presbyterian minister and conservative thinker William J. H. Boetcker. It was published in 1916 in a pamphlet titled “The Ten Cannots.”
