I think you are hilarious...and I say start on it now because most people don't write theirs until they're older and then they can't remember as many life events :)

It's January... well it was at any rate.

*I began writing this last month, but have been stalling finishing, because vulnerability is scary and it's sacred. I don't write this lightly, but I write it in hopes that somewhere someone else needs to hear what I have to say. Three years ago, my father died. It was January 4, 2011. On January 6, 2011, I called my husband and said, "Congratulations, we have a 400 lb.. 12 year old. He's a mess, but he's ours." And I smiled. And I cried. Because as those words came out of my mouth, the reality set in: our lives would never be the same. I was scared to death. I was having second thoughts. I was anxious about how we would actually do this. And then a peace settled back into me as God reminded me that no matter what happened next, this was the right thing to do and He was with us every step of the way. And He has been. But that doesn't mean it's been pleasant... or pretty... or calm... or happy. It's been a very...

the non-accomplishment list

Well, the deadline came and went yesterday. And no, my book is not finished. If it was, I would be shouting it from the rooftops on a megaphone attached to sub-woofers, broadcasting at sonic-boom decibels. Sigh. I have been trying not to be super depressed or down on myself the last few days as I came to realize that I wasn't going to be able to meet my goal and have my work-in-progress completed by September 17th as I had made a pact with my BWFE (best-writing-friend-ever), Becca, that I would. To pull myself out of the dumps and come a terms with how imperfect life is and how plans, even cemented ones, have a way of crumbling into microscopic dust, I have decided to make a list of all my non-accomplishments over the last six weeks and see if I can find a reason why my WIP is yet to be finished. (I must say though, I am uber close, like 2-3 chapters away from the end! I will finish within the next 2 weeks!!) My Non-Accomplishment List In the last six we...

Darkest Before the Dawn: Perfect Timing

Lesson of the day. I found this image on facebook yesterday and shared it on my wall, stating that I was "resetting my clock" and hoping that my clock and God's would soon sync and my husband would get to come home soon--he has been separated from us for about a year as he traverses the military path of a medical discharge and awaits among lines of red tape for a decision to be made. And then... The time was 9:33, it was an hour past my children's bedtime. I was cranky. They were cranky. I was trying to rush through scriptures and prayer (and shamefully texting through scriptures to make plans with a friend to go to a movie at 10) to get them into bed ASAP. We wrapped up prayer, I kissed their heads and sent them off to bed, sending one last text to my friend that simply said, "Ready!" Then, it all fell apart. My three youngest children began crying and begging me to stay home. "Please don't leave, mom. I have a really bad feeli...
